Introduction to Operating Principles
In order to oset the self-rotation of the aircraft, the
propellers are classied as black clockwise rotating
propellers and red counter-clockwise rotating propellers;
the motors are classied as clockwise rotating and
counter-clockwise rotating as well. After successful
connection to the master controller module, the motor
will start spinning, thus pushing air downwards which in
turn generates an upward thrust.
