Getting Dangerously Close

So at this point we have done the following:
  1. Assembled the frame
  2. Mounted the motors and ESCs
  3. Connected the power distribution board
  4. Reassembled frame with electronics installed
  5. Programmed KapteinKuk v4.7 X-copter onto control board
  6. Connected ESCs to control board
  7. Connected control board to receiver
  8. Hooked up the battery to ensure all is getting power
  9. Programmed the transmitter and tested receiver functions
  10. Done some preliminary testing without blades
So what do we have left to do?

  1. Install a bar on the top to protect the control board in case of crash
  2. Calibrate the throttle range on the ESCs
  3. Range test the transmitter
  4. Mount the props
  5. Fly it!
