Step 4: Printing
Export all files as .STL files from Autodesk Inventor's file type .IPT. From here we open Makerware software and scale all files to 100%. Set to the settings described in
Steps 1 and 2, then save the printable file onto a secure digital (SD) card. Put this into your printer, and wait for the prints to finish. ALWAYS HIGH QUALITY! RAFTS
ON!
Step 5: Wiring
Plug the Battery into the PDB and the PDB into all speed controlled motors. Make sure that the polarity is swapped on the "push motors ( motors on opposing corners
with pull propellers) The wiring is quite straightforward:
1) Plug battery to APM Power Management cable, and APM power cable connected to the APM power input, the Deans connector should be out from Power
Management cable to the Quad copter Power Distribution Board
2) ESC are to be hooked into the Quad copter Power Distribution board
3) The PDB should lead to all speed controllers and motors
4) The receiver should be plugged to the APM, Set all control components and plug them into their corresponding ports.
Many copters have been made using this setup.

Step 7: Flight
Now that you've created your quad copter, it is time for flight! Our machine is flyable by either GPS or FM transmitter. Have fun!
