Turbo Ace MATRIX

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Welcome to the World of Quadcopters

The MATRIX is spawning a new era in super quadcopter design. Its larger &

powerful motors, propellers and batteries offer up to three times the flight time and

payload of a traditional quad. The extra payload and flight time allow you to carry a

variety of cameras to produce unmatched cinematic quality video. Sporty low-profile

architecture, its triple carbon fiber deck supports an extra wide 1000mm wingspan

that folds down to fit inside an optional aluminum carrying case (no dismounting and

remounting of propellers, landing skids or gimbal required). The MATRIX's ideally

positioned camera mount on the nose offers wide angle views unobstructed by

propeller shadows, reflections and landing skids. Its well-balanced center of gravity,

with battery and gimbal position flexibility, greatly reduces swinging and improves

the video quality of the traditional under-mounted battery/gimbal design.

Quadcopters are loosely classified into several categories - from toys for amusement

to complex units for professional video, science & research. Now, a new class of

quadcopter is emerging for commercial applications. The Turbo Ace MATRIX is the

clear leader in this group with a list of outstanding features: advanced PC interface (so

you can update or customize the flight controller), cutting edge auto-stabilizing mode

for videographers, anti-vibration mounts, dynamically balanced motors for high

definition video production, and a host of other upgrades to improve reliability.

Unlike most quadcopters, the MATRIX is fully assembled and tested in the USA for

outdoor flight and it is ready to produce high quality video right out of the box. If you

are starting from scratch, the MATRIX RTF package even includes a paired

transmitter that is fully programmed and calibrated. If you already have a transmitter,

all you need is an ARF package. For additional cross-training, you can choose from

our optional professional Phoenix flight simulator, an easy-to-fly helicopter, and/or a

mini Walkera QR X350 quad. As with all Wow Hobbies’featured RC helicopters,

MATRIX parts, upgrades and accessories are fully supported online and locally in the

USA.

1.2 Important Instructions

* Read the entire Matrix Instruction Manual on your included USB flash drive before you

operate the Matrix.

Turbo Ace MATRIX

* Follow the instruction manual for a tied down flight test on a bench. This is the safest way

to make sure the Matrix quadcopter has not been damaged during shipping.

* Foldable Matrix aluminum arms operate on guiding carbon tracks with keyed circular locks

on each end. To release the arm from the folded or operating ends of the track, please

unscrew the arm bolt counter-clockwise for a height of 1/8” before the lock will release.

If the bolt is not unscrewed to a sufficient height, you may risk scratching the carbon track.

* Prior to each takeoff, make sure the GPS antenna/compass is erected from the folded

position and screwed down.

* When mounting a propeller, use loctite and make sure the propeller clamp sits flat against

the top of the propeller. Even new propellers may need to be balanced if vibration shows on

video. Use a blade balancer with heavy gauge tape adhered to the underside of the blade for

balance. In bright sunlight, the GoPro 3 may show rolling shutter jello. Use ND8 filter if

necessary to slow down its shutter speed.

* Battery must be positioned by moving it backward and forward until the front and back

weights are balanced from the center point of the Naza flight controller. You can lift the

matrix up with a finger on each side of the matrix to check the balance (see manual for

details). The battery can be placed either on top or bottom of the Matrix.

* Camera must be balanced like a seesaw on a brushless gimbal, otherwise the gimbal motors

will be stressed and vibrate.

Maintaining the Matrix’s LiPo Batteries

* Matrix batteries are made up of 6 cells and each cell must be maintained between 3.7V to

4.2V. The total voltage for Matrix batteries should be maintained between 22.2V (3.7Vx6)

and 25.2V (4.2Vx6) without load. It’s very important to keep each cell above 3.7V. A cell is

at risk of being damaged or life shortened at 3.67V per cell without load.

* Each Matrix battery includes a yellow charging/discharging plug and a white balancing

plug. Both plugs must be plugged in to charge the battery. The yellow plug with thicker gauge

wires enables a faster charge rate, while the white plug with 1 small red wire and 6 small

black wires enables the charger to balance charge 6 individual cells. When all 6 cells reach

approximately 4.2V each for a total of 25.2V, the charger will automatically stop.

* A battery meter is one of the easiest way to monitor voltage for any LiPo battery.

There are seven pins on the battery meter. One of the pins is marked with a “-” symbol, which

should line up with the black wire of the battery’s white balancing plug. The first number

displayed is the total voltage of the battery, followed by each individual cell.

Turbo Ace MATRIX

Before & After Each Flight

* Attitude mode is the most reliable way to fly for experienced pilots, as it is not susceptible

to GPS interference. GPS mode is commonly used by beginners, but once more experience is

acquired, attitude mode is highly recommended (you can still use GPS mode as a backup).

When orientation is lost, do not panic. Just flip to GPS mode and let go of the cyclic stick,

and GPS will take over. Do not to attempt to recover the craft with the cyclic stick. There is a

certain time of the year in which solar flare may interfere with GPS. To recover the craft in

such a case, switch to manual (not attitude) mode. Please be aware that if the Matrix has

passed through airport X-ray screening, near a magnet or has been relocated more than 30

miles from where it was originally calibrated, the GPS may need to be recalibrated depending

on the geographic latitude at which you are located (see manual).

* Before each flight, always turn on the transmitter first, then plug in the Matrix battery.

Then, you need to allow enough time for the flight controller and GPS to warm up and

initialize. The Naza Lite takes approximately 2 minutes to warm up. The yellow LED light

will turn off when the Naza Lite is ready for use.

* After each flight, always unplug the Matrix battery first, then turn off the transmitter. If

you forget, the quadcopter and/or transmitter will continue to drain power and the battery will

be damaged.

Dos

* Do initialize the Matrix & takeoff from a large, leveled surface.

* Do implement a pre-flight checklist & use it consistently before takeoff.

* Do unplug the Matrix battery when maintaining or upgrading the quadcopter.

* Do dismount propellers if battery is plugged in while updating the flight controller.

Don’ts

* Don’t operate near people or pets & do not allow people to approach an operating

quadcopter.

* Don’t use magnets (e.g. magnetized screwdrivers & tools) in close proximity to the GPS

antenna/compass.

* Don’t attempt to catch a quadcopter.

1.3 Quick Start

The MATRIX has a convenient foldable arm / landing skid design. When you first

remove it from the box, please make sure that the GPS antenna (See diagram 2.5) is

Turbo Ace MATRIX

erected and properly tightened by turning the top locking cylinder in a clock-wise

direction. Next, loosen the arm screws located on top of the folding track. These

screws are keyed so they must be loosened and raised by about 1/8 of an inch in order

for the arms to fold, unfold the arms, and tighten them back in a clock-wise manner.

Make sure the round key located on the bottom of the screw is securely locked into

the circular key on the track. When it is properly locked in, it will prevent the arms

from accidentally folding during flight. Next, if you wish to fold the landing skid, you

may loosen the 2 side screws on each of the 4 legs. Pull the leg down to lengthen it.

Tighten the 2 screws back on each of the landing skid legs. Refer to section 5

TESTING & OPERATIONS (Please DO NOT install the propellers during the testing

procedure). Attach the battery to either on top or bottom of the Matrix. Lift the Matrix

up with one finger on each side from the center of Naza flight controller. Move the

battery until the Matrix is leveled like a see-saw with equal weight on both sides. See

Figure 3.4.4. It is important to note that the Matrix will not fly properly and may lose

control and crash if the center of gravity is not balanced at the middle of the Naza

flight control. Turn on the transmitter and within 2 seconds plug in the MATRIX

battery to bind. If your unit comes with DJI NAZA, please observe the blinking

yellow LED light located behind the quad, which indicates the controller is in warm

up stage. Wait for about 2 minutes until the yellow light stops flashing. Please check

the LED light description at section 5.3 and 5.4. Attitude mode is the most reliable

way to fly for intermediate to advance level pilots as all GPS is susceptible to

interference and sun spots activities. However, GPS remains to be the easiest and the

safest way to fly for beginners. Select the attitude mode from your transmitter, if you

are a trained pilot and use the GPS mode as a backup. Move both sticks of the

transmitter together in one action down to the lower right or left corner to start the

motors. Release right stick and immediately give the left stick about 10% throttles so

the motors will not cease. It will not lift off until the throttle stick passes 50%. Have

an experienced pilot test fly it on a bench while tied down. No defective claim is

allowed if the unit is crashed, so please be very careful.

1.8 Caution & Safety

As the operator of the Turbo Ace MATRIX, it is your responsibility to follow all

proper procedures, protocols and precautions to ensure the safe operation of the

MATRIX. The operator must wear safety glasses and any bystanders must be

protected in a safe area. Do not operate the MATRIX in the proximity of

Turbo Ace MATRIX

children, pets, cars and other vulnerable property. The owner and the operator

of the MATRIX assumes all liability for any damages caused in the operation of

the MATRIX, including but not limited to personal injury, equipment and

property damage.

If your package includes a transmitter radio, do not pull on the transmitter’s

antenna when removing it from the foam packaging tray. Remove the

transmitter by pulling on the neck strap holder.

Since the MATRIX propellers are dismounted for shipping purposes, you must

first follow the setup instructions in this user manual to mount the propellers. Any

attempt to skip procedures will end in a bad crash.

Do not be tempted to fly a new and large RC aircraft, such as the MATRIX,

out of the box, especially after shipping. Prior to its maiden flight, please tie

the MATRIX down to a stationary workbench for 3 battery test flights. Any

crashed aircraft is not eligible for dead-on-arrival or any other defective

equipment claims. If you are new to RC equipment, please seek the help of an

experienced RC equipment operator to prevent damage and injury.

If you have purchased a MATRIX ARF package, you must first program the

end points of each ESC then calibrate your transmitter to the MATRIX (See

Section 4.2). If you are using your own transmitter you must reprogram each

ESC independently. (See Section 4.1). Any attempt to fly without proper

transmitter calibration and ESC programming will result in a crash and it will

invalidate any DOA claim. If you have purchased an RTF (ready-to-fly) unit with

transmitter, please ignore these steps.

Additional Velcro should be added on the flight battery to prevent the battery

sliding from side to side.

Operator must tie down MATRIX and remove all propellers when it is

hooked up to a computer. Any incorrect settings or values may trigger an

accidental motor startup. Turbo Ace, its distributors and dealers are not liable for

any damages caused by mishandling of the MATRIX and its associated

equipment.

Operator should use Loctite to secure all necessary screws on the MATRIX,

excluding propeller locking screws. Blue Loctite can be applied directly to the

screw and should not come in contact with any plastic propellers or parts which

will crack during flight. Please do not use red Loctite, as it can only be removed

with extreme heat.
