© 2020 PCS Edventures, Inc. RubiQ FLIGHT MANUAL
Get ready to meet RubiQ, your modular, open-source training drone! She’d get up to shake your hand, but as
you can see, she’s a little out of sorts right now. That’s where you come in. This guide includes your step-by-
step instructions for piecing RubiQ together. Follow them in reverse to disassemble. This kit includes all the
parts and tools needed for assembly, along with a few spares for any accidents along the road. Once RubiQ is
built, visit rubiq.edventures.com to access her online Conguration Guide. From there, you’ll need to have the
following standing-by in order to get RubiQ off the ground:
Battery: Any high-quality 3S 35C+ LiPo (2000-2500 mAh recommended)
Radio: Rubi’s receiver is compatible with FrSky radios
FPV Goggles: Rubi’s video transmitter is compatible with any 5.8 GHz goggles
Li-Po Compatible Balance Charger: Any
All these items are included in the full Discover Drones package and can be purchased, along with any spare
parts, at edventures.com/collections/drones
DISCLAIMER:
• Drones are powerful and can be dangerous — RubiQ is no exception. Flying requires experience
and thorough knowledge of ight safety. Only start ying after proper training and with a full
understanding of the drone regulations in your area.
• When cared for properly, LiPo batteries provide the reliable, lightweight power that makes
multirotor ight possible. However, LiPo batteries pose a severe re hazard if improperly charged
or poorly maintained. Review all battery warnings and instructions carefully, and follow all safety
procedures when handling LiPo’s.
• There’s always a slight chance that RubiQ’s motors could spin unexpectedly, causing bodily harm.
Play it safe: remove her props when inside and disconnect the battery whenever possible!
• Be sure the video antenna is attached whenever you connect the LiPo battery! Powering up any
drone without an antenna may cause permanent damage to the VTX (video transmitter).
PCS Edventures accepts no responsibility, or liability, for any injury, or damage, to persons or property, caused
by the use of RubiQ, radio transmitters, FPV goggles, LiPo batteries or LiPo battery chargers. PCS Edventures
also accepts no responsibility for damage caused to RubiQ by operating without a TX antenna installed or by
connecting cables in an improper conguration.
