About This User Manual
This small and ultralight indoor multicopter kit applies F3_EVO_Brush as the flight controller, thus
it gives you all the features you need for the heart of your aircraft. Whether you’re into FPV
racing, acrobatic flying or aerial photography, it’s perfect. The flight controller has been
configured and firmware burnt, so you can fly it as soon as the receiver, propellers, and battery
are assembled. It is equipped with a 5.8G transmitter for real-time image transmission, bringing
you an extraordinary visual experience.
Follow the instructions to assemble the aircraft before flying the aircraft. The software
debugging has been configured on the flight controller originally, which is mentioned in
Chapter 3 and Chapter 4. If you want to redo it, you can follow those instructions.
Notes: This guide fits both the BEE-100 kit and the BEE-100S kit. Most of the steps are the same
for the two aircrafts; for some different practice, just take BEE-100S for example.

1. Introduction
1.1 Get to Know the Aircraft
1. This is an assembled kit - you can just connect the receiver, install the propellers and batteries,
and complete the configurations, and then you are ready to fly!
2. The F3_EVO_Brush flight controller has the firmware flashed and configured.
3. If you want to reflash the firmware, please follow the instructions in Chapter 3 Betaflight or
Chapter 4 Cleanflight.
4. Its frame is made of carbon fiber, which endows it with high tenacity and anti-collision ability.
5. It is equipped with a 5.8G transmitter for real-time image transmission, bringing you an
extraordinary visual experience.
6. The aircraft provides wonderful stunt flying movements such as left-right flip, crossing, etc.

1.2 Hardware
The F3_EVO_Brush flight controller is designed to give awesome flight performance based on tried
and tested sensors while providing unparalleled I/O capabilities in a small and extremely
lightweight form-factor by a next-generation CPU. With all the features needed for the heart of
your aircraft, whether you’re into FPV racing, acrobatic flying or aerial photography, it’s perfect.
Front view
1) DSM receiver is soldered to 3.3V, GND, and RX3 of the DSM port; configure UART3 in
Cleanflight/Betaflight.
2) PPM and SBUS receivers are soldered to GND, 5V, and RX2 of the UART2 port; for SBUS signal,
configure UART2 in Cleanflight/Betaflight.

1.3 Software
The F3_EVO_Brush runs the Cleanflight and Betaflight flight control software which has a
community with a growing number of friendly developers and users. Being open-source means
that you can also contribute to the system.
Note: Here we use firmware Betaflight, and the software debugging operation above is based
on Betaflight. If you prefer Cleanflight, please refer to the operation in Chapter 4. Cleanflight.

2. Preparation Before Flying
Notice:
The Flight Controller in the kit has firmware flashed and been configured. You can fly it after
finishing the preparation in this chapter (2). The procedures in Chapter 3. Betaflight and Chapter
4. Cleanflight are about firmware flashing and configuration. If you want to redo those operations,
please refer to the instructions in those two chapters.
2.1 Mounting the Receiver
Procedures
1) Check the signal mode of the receiver: PPM, SBUS, or DSM/DSMX.
2) Solder the receiver to the right position.
For PPM or SBUS Mode
Remove the upper plate of the frame first. Solder three jumper wires to the UART2 port,
connecting to GND, 5V, and RX2 respectively.
SunFounder
5
For DSM/DSMX Mode
Remove the upper plate of the frame first. Solder three jumper wires to the UART3, connecting to
GND, 3.3V, and RX3 respectively.
3) Then connect the jumper wires to the receiver. Pay attention NOT to connect wires inversely.
If you have an ultra-small receiver with a protective case, you can just fasten it on the flight
controller and fix it with a rubber band. The two bulges on the frame can be used to fix the
rubber band.

4) If your receiver does not have a protective case, just fix it on the upper plate of the frame in
case of short circuit.
2.2 Installing the Betaflight
