Connection Diagram
Connection Layout top
Receiver connector:
•GND
•5V
•LM: elemetry signal to receiver
•SIG.: Receiver signal to FC
Acronym explanation:
•Motor 1 - 4: pads for motor connection
•GND: Reference Signal Ground
•3-6S - / +: Battery input voltage (12V-27V)
•Reset: Reset button to force the FC in bootloader mode, not needed for normal operation
•RGB_LED: pad for LED connection
•5V/GND/RX4/ X4: If onboard OSD is deactivated these pads are the connection for
another free serial (e.g. GPS)

he FC, ESC and OSD of the FE tec AIO 35A Board are flashable over the FE tec
Configurator.
Download the FE tec Configurator here: https://github.com/FE tec/Firmware/releases.
FC Firmware update
choose USB and select the correct COM
Port and press connect.
You should see the FE tec FC G4 as
shown.

OSD Settings
All settings are to set directly in the OSD.
o get in the menu move the sticks in the shown direction at the start:
hrottle 50%, then move Yaw left, Pitch up

OSD settings:
Issues wit t e OSD
1. OSD SYNC → AU O SYNC
2. in case of blurry lines play with LEF /WI H values try to avoid WI H values above 400
3. make a PAL/N SC layout reset
Move elements in t e OSD menu
Choose LAYOU → SE POSI IONS in SE INGS.
Now the elements are movable along the grid.
Skip between the elements and select them to set new positions.
To exit t e ´move menu´ old stick Yaw left for a few seconds
