Wiring
The wiring below is valid for Pixhawk and Pixracer. Use the main outputs, not the ones labeled with AUX. The motor controller needs to have an in-built BEC, as the autopilot is not powering the servo rail.
| Port | Connection |
|---|---|
RC IN | PPM or S.BUS / S.BUS2 input |
MAIN 1 | Left Aileron |
MAIN 2 | Right Aileron |
MAIN 3 | Empty |
MAIN 4 | Throttle |
