CULMINATION OF INNOVATION, EXPERIENCE & EXECUTION

Leapfrogging quadcopter records with ease, the sporty new Matrix is crushing all competitions 

with its super sized wingspan. Yet, it folds down nicely to fit in a professional aluminum case 

along with the transmitter radio. Matrix's super efficient 6-cell system powers 4 muscular 42mm 

brushless motors driving 15" carbon fiber propellers for unparalleled lifting capacity and stability. 

Conceptualized by master FPV pilots, Matrix is a quadcopter designed for rather than adapted 

to carrying cameras. To satisfy an almost insurmountable list of high expectations, Turbo Ace 

engineers set out on a journey of innovation and discovery. Applying more than 85 years of 

combined helicopter and multi-rotor expertise between our master pilot group, engineers and 

designers, the Matrix represents an ultimate breakthrough in quadcopter engineering and 

optimization. To search for the ultimate mix of performance and durability, Turbo Ace developers 

matched up countless motors, ESCs and propellers combinations followed by series of 

unrelenting updates and test flights. From planning and implementing the best components on a 

foldable structure, setting and meeting new milestones in flight time and payload, to executing 

crucial requirements for flight and camera stabilization, the Turbo Ace Matrix is truly a 

quadcopter beyond its time. 

UNPRECEDENTED PAYLOAD & FLIGHT TIME

Matrix's big breakthrough is a 25-minute flight time carrying the #1 selling GoPro Hero4/3+/3 

stabilized on the ultra fast 2-axis brushless Gyrox3 gimbal. Cutting out the gimbal but keeping 

the Hero4/3+/3 on a vibration isolation plate will extend Matrix flight time beyond the amazing 

30min threshold. Despite many unrealistic claims, the closest competition offers less than half 

the flight time. At about 3 times the size of a mid-sized quadcopter, heavier payloads exert 

disproportionatelly less impact on Matrix flight time than smaller quadcopter flight time. Without 

exception, even the top selling mid-sized quadcopters with 8" to 10" propellers will max out at 

5-6 minutes with Hero4/3+/3 and gimbal onboard. It's common for both vendors and end users 

to exaggerate or manipulate payload and flight time by gutting critical components inside 

quadcopters and cameras. 

 

IDEAL UNOBSTRUCTED AUTO-STABILIZED CAMERA/

GIMBAL LOCATION

Tired of propellers and landing skids framing your video? The Matrix's nose offers an ideal 

location with unobstructed view - no propellers even in wide angle videos, no skid landing when 

pointed down and no more annoying propellers shadows on the lenses. Although these are 

nagging issues, there are even more crucial factors in achieving stability. Because traditionally 

mounted cameras are about 8 inches below the main hub, a quadcopter's roll causes the 

camera to swing like a pendulum. Although a good gimbal is able to compensate for the roll axis 

movement, it's unable to address the horizontal movement that causes a video to shift from side 

to side as if a skater is holding the camera. By moving the gimbal and camera up to the level of 

the propellers, the Matrix design has basically eliminated the pendulum effect. Last but not 

least, gimbals are only as stable as the foundation they are mounted on. Bypassing the weight 

and slack of unstable undermounted gimbal platforms, Matrix's gimbal is mounted directly on 

the main frame to prevent oscillation from surfacing. 
TRIPLE CARBON FIBER DECK FOR COMPREHENSIVE & 

VERSATILE INTEGRATION 

In housing and supporting an extensive list of stock and upgrade components on a super-scaled 

quadcopter, Matrix's triple decked carbon fiber structure is extremely strong and versatile. Four 

foldable arms which double as supporting beams are securely sandwiched between the lower 

decks along with multiple ventilated ESC positions. The middle deck houses and protects all 

critical electronic components such as the flight controller, the GPS, LED and other optional 

systems. Versatile Battery and ESC mounting positions allows the operator to shift CG (center 

of gravity) upward, downward, forward and backward to accommodate a wide variety of 

payloads and flight characteristics. Mount the battery below the lower deck for more stable 

flights or move the battery to the upper deck to increase maneuverability. And to counter 

balance different camera payloads, you can shift the battery, ESCs and arms into optimal 

positions for proper CG. 

ADDITIONAL C4 VIBRATION ISOLATION DECK TO 

ELIMINATE JELLO EFFECTS ON VIDEOS 

High frequency vibration on cameras is the principal cause of jello effects on videos. 

Implemented on a vast scale, Matrix's C4 vibration isolation deck offers a comprehensive antivibration solution for gimbal, camera and flight controller. In contrast to skimpy isolation plates, 

rubber bands or balls, Matrix's C4 vibration roadblock encompasses the entire surface and 

mass of the upper decks including the weight of a top mounted battery to neutralize vibrations. 

By including an extra layer of vibration dampening for the flight controller, Matrix is also 

preserving a common practice amongst professional pilots. A flight controller's sensitive gyro 

system can often misinterpretate vibrations as part of an aircraft movement, leading to 

adjustments and counter adjustments that generates more vibrations. By addressing the cause 

and effect of vibrations, the Matrix platform offers the epitome of production quality videos 

without the risk and disappointment of software stabilization.

FOLDS AND FITS NEATLY INTO A CARRY-ON SIZED 

ALUMINUM CASE

No more awkward quadcopter with protruding arms and propellers to lug around. Unlike typical 

folding mechanisms, the Matrix's arms and landing skids are designed to lock into folded or 

operating positions so you don't have to sacrifice structural integrity for portability. 

Implementations of slotted tracks enable fast and secured transitions without the risk losing any 

hardware. For a day out in the park or a hiking trip, you can retract the arms and skids to reduce 

the footprint. And for traveling, foldable antenna enable the Matrix and the transmitter to slip 

comfortably into a professional aluminum case without dismounting the propellers and gimbal. 

Upon arrival at the flight location the operator can adjust the landing skid height to 

accommodate rougher terrain. An optional aluminum case even includes cutouts for transmitter, 

batteries, spare parts & tools. Who knows, you might have a trip planned for Europe and the 

very versatile Matrix can make a great companion as a carry-on. 
DYNAMICALLY BALANCED MOTORS & OVER-SPECCED 

ESCS

For exceptionally smooth flights, Matrix super muscular 42mm brushless motors are dynamical 

balanced. Since brushless motors are hand wound, the mass center is usually not in alignment 

with the mechanical center. Using advanced electronic balancing instruments, our factory spins 

up each motor then make proper adjustment to bring the mass center into alignment. Then to 

control and power the motors, Matrix 40A ESCs feature advanced multi-rotor algorithms which 

offers better performance and reliability than generic helicopter algorithms. Over-specced to 

sustain unrestrained amperage in higher torque for acceleration, extreme maneuvers and bigger 

payloads, Matrix is engineered to operating below capacity, so mechanical and electronic 

components stay relatively cooler even with consecutive flights. 

STIFFER & THICKER DOUBLE-POINT MOUNTED 15" 

CARBON PROPELLERS

No propellers are created equal. 15" Matrix robust carbon fiber propellers are sculpted with 

extra thick mid-section to resists flex then tapers to efficient blades to cut through the air with 

minimal resistance. Traditional circular mounts are accidents waiting to happen because the 

force of rotating propellers will eventually unscrew the crown nuts during flight. Integrated 

double point mounts on Matrix motors and propellers eliminate this possibility and at the same 

time improve tracking precision because the propellers are forced to sit flat against the top of 

the motors. Another benefit of a flat mount is that there are no vulnerable protruding motor 

shafts. Slight deviations in traditional circular mounting holes or protruding motor shafts are 

extremely difficult to detect which magnify pitch and tracking variances, a major cause of 

vibrations and unstable flights. Since end-users are often required to purchase and mount 

propellers, Matrix's new hassle free mounting configuration is implemented to prevent vibration 

issues from surfacing. 

SELECTABLE MANUAL, ATTITUDE & GPS FLIGHT MODES

A 3-positioned switch is setup on Matrix' transmitter for pilot to select between 3 different flight 

modes. (1) With Manual Flight Mode, the absence of Gyro assisted flight makes it very difficult 

for the Pilot to stabilize and maneuver the quadcopter. (2) For 3-axis gyro auto-stabilized flight, 

the Attitude Flight Mode will automatically keep the Matrix in a leveled and sustainable flight 

thus enabling the pilot to focus on maneuvering the quadcopter. (3) Finally, the GPS Flight 

Mode is the most often used mode because it combines the benefit of 3-axis gyro autostabilized flight with 4 advanced GPS based functions described below. 
GPS-LOCK & RETURN-TO-HOME

Under GPS Flight Mode, (1) one of the most utilized GPS based functions is the GPS-Lock 

function. Simply release the cyclic stick and allow it to spring to the middle of the control and the 

Matrix will be locked into a fixed GPS location (longitude-lock and latitude-lock) with a tolerance 

of 3 to 5 feet radius. Another similar function from the Matrix flight controller, the BarometricLock can be activated by moving the throttle stick to the middle of the control and the Matrix will 

be locked into a fixed elevation (altitude-lock). A hands-free hover modes is established when 

the pilot activates both the GPS-Lock and the Barometric-Lock simultaneously and the flight 

controller takes over. Either lock may also be used independently to hover in a fixed GPS 

coordinate with pilot controlled elevation or the longitude/latitude. By relinquishing controls to 

these auto-hover modes, the pilot can better focus on monitoring the video and controlling the 

camera. (2) Another popular GPS function is the Return-to-Home feature, a preprogrammed 

failsafe function that's automatically triggered by lose of remote control signals. Upon activation, 

the quadcopter will hover in place for a couple of seconds before elevating to a preprogrammed 

height and return to the home position for an automated landing sequence. 

GPS BASED COURSE-LOCK & HOME-LOCK

Under GPS Flight Mode, there is dedicated 3-positioned carefree mode switch set up to 

access (3) Course-Lock, a compass based carefree mode that remembers the initial take-off 

direction of the flight which is used to consistently orient the quadcopter. Under Course-Lock, 

the transmitter radio must remain in the initial take-off direction until it's reset or until the 

quadcopter lands. For example, with the transmitter pointed in the eastward direction, a 

quadcopter takes off in eastward heading orientation then turns towards a northward heading. 

Without Course-Lock, a transmitter cyclic (directional) stick moved up towards the east will 

cause the quadcopter to head northward. Under Course-Lock, a cyclic stick moved up towards 

the east will cause the quadcopter to head eastward which is consistent with the initial take-off 

direction. In fact, by keeping the transmitter pointed in the initial eastward take-off direction, the 

cyclic stick direction will always correspond to the direction of the quadcopter no matter how the 

heading has changed. At any time the pilot may reset the initial direction by flipping the Carefree 

Mode Switch in and out of Course-Lock. (4) Lastly, there is another similar carefree mode with a 

twist. Home-Lock, a home coordinate based carefree mode is very similar to Course-Lock. The 

difference is that Home-Lock uses the home location as the consistent tail-in orientation for the 

entire flight. While this allows the pilot to constantly turn and follow the quadcopter, the pilot 

should not move away from the home location. And because GPS has a tolerance of 3-5 feet, 

Home-Lock is less precise than Course-Lock. However, as the quadcopter gains more distance 

from the home position the precision improves dramatically. This is why Home-Lock will not and 

cannot be activated within a 30-feet circle from the home position. To use Home-Lock, the pilot 

usually maintains a tail-in orientation until the quadcopter is well beyond the 30-feet circle before 

assuming that Home-Lock has activated. At this point the pilot can constantly turn and point the 

transmitter at the quadcopter and the cyclic stick will always correspond directly to the 

quadcopter's direction. To bring the quadcopter back, the pilot simply pulls the cyclic towards 

himself - basically a manual controlled return-to-home function. Special caution is required when 

the quadcopter approaches the 30-feet circle because Home-Lock will automatically switch to 

Course-Lock. If the quadcopter enters the 30-feet circle from the initial take-off direction so that 

Home-Lock is equal to Course-Lock the pilot can assume that the quadcopter is under CourseLock until the quadcopter lands. In summary, an experienced pilot uses the "Normal" flight mode 

because no help is required from GPS. Both Course-Lock & Home-Lock carefree flight modes 

enable the operator to pilot the quadcopter without keeping track of the quadcopter's tail 

position. This is especially useful if a less experienced pilot is rotating the quadcopter to pan the 

video. There is much less confusion for beginner pilots to stick with either "Normal" mode or use 

GPS assisted Course-Lock. Home-Lock is usually reserved for longer distance within-the-lineof-sight flight because it's a bit confusing to operate when it approaches the home position. 
ULTRA DURABLE & MAINTENANCE FRIENDLY

All Matrix material and components are selected and built for reliability and durability. Premium 

carbon fiber is utilized in the main frame for its rigidity and light-weight properties. Wear 

resistant CNC aluminum is utilized in screw-mounted joints, brackets and posts. Tough 

Japanese bearings are implemented to guard against higher temperatures. Then for continued 

maintenance, Matrix is based on a modularized design with strategically placed high tensile 

strength connectors so it's extremely easy and cost effective to maintain and operate. With 

minimal disassembly, components can be independently removed and replaced to diagnose 

and repair problems. As with all Turbo Ace production models, well stocked Matrix parts and 

upgrades are manufactured in larger volumes and savings are passed on to end-users. 

Operators are encouraged to keep some backup parts such as spare propellers, screws and 

batteries for replacement. Complimentary Turbo Ace videos are available online to assist 

operators in maintaining and upgrading the Matrix.

CAMERAS

Aerial camera mounted under quadcopter serves two main purposes. (1) First and foremost, 

cameras are used for the purpose of recording videos or taking still photographs. Preferably, a 

DSLR camera is mounted on an auto-stabilized gyro based gimbal (camera mount) to stabilize 

the camera's horizon. (2) For more experienced pilots, a camera can be used for the purpose of 

piloting the quadcopter from the point of view of the camera aka FPV (first-person-view) piloting. 

If the camera is either mounted directly on the quadcopter without stabilization so the pilot can 

experience the tilt (pitch) & roll of the hexacopter. If the camera is auto-stabilized, OSD (onscreen-display) may be required to overlay artificial horizon and flight status on live feed video.

VIBRATION ISOLATION MOUNT & AUTO-STABILIZED 

CAMERA MOUNTS ON MATRIX

Employing vibration isolation mount for camera can significantly dampen high frequency 

vibrations to prevent rolling shutter & jello effects on videos. And for more professional 

applications, we can optionally add gyro based camera mounts to automatically stabilize 

cameras to accommodate quadcopter's tilt & roll movements to maintain a leveled video 

horizon. To control the camera's aim, a dial switch on the transmitter radio enables the pilot to tilt 

the camera up or down. With the freedom to maneuver and turn the quadcopter from different 

perspectives, heights and angles, one can achieve an endless variety of high quality shots and 

videos.

FPV Live Feed Video

Live feed video enables the pilot or cameraman to see real time videos from the camera's point 

of view which is synonymous to FPV (first-person-view). In contrast to slower and shorter 

distanced WiFi video streaming on cameras, aerial FPV requires much longer distance 

transmission without visible delay. A video transmitter is usually attached to a camera's videoout port transmits the video signals. A matching video receiver located next to the pilot or 

cameraman receives the video signal that is then plugged into a monitor's video-in port for 

displaying the video. There are 2 main purposes for aerial FPV. (1) To enable pilot/cameraman 

to see and frame videos or still shots by adjusting the gimbal and/or the quadcopters location 

and orientation. (2) To enable pilot to see and fly from the point of view of the camera (view from 

the cockpit). If a camera is hard mounted without auto-stabilization, the video will reflect the tilt 

(pitch) and roll of the quadcopter. If a camera is auto-stabilized on a gimbal, an OSD (onscreen-display) may be implemented to overlay artificial horizon and flight data on the autostabilized video that does not reflect the tilt and roll of hexacopter.

TRANSMITTER & RECEIVER OPERATING REQUIREMENTS

Standard remote control transmitters and receivers utilized with the Matrix quadcopter operate 

under FCC Part 15 (S29DEVO-10, BRWDAMTX11, AZPT14SG-24G, S29TX5803) in either 

legal 2.4GHz and/or 5.8GHz frequencies. In general, advanced quadcopters require a minimum 

of 7 channels under the 2.4GHz frequency range: 4 channels for piloting controls, 2 channels for 

the GPS and 1 channel for controlling the tilt-axis of the gimbal. Extended distance transmitters 

usually employ several methods to promote signal strength and reliability. (1) Frequencyhopping spread spectrum (FHSS) is a method of transmitting radio signals by rapidly switching 

between several frequencies to seek the least amount of traffic. (2) Dual paths diversity enable 

the signals to reach two receivers or antennas mounted in different locations on the quadcopter 

so the system can utilize the strongest signal path. Bi-directional communications between 

transmitter and receiver can also utilize feedback signal strength to traget the best frequencies 

in real time (3) In case of signal disruptions, algorithm for ultra fast signal recovery enables the 

transmitter and receiver to quickly rebind for uninterrupted operations. Products using permitted 

frequencies without certification will require an amateur radio (ham) license. It is the operator's 

responsibilities to ensure the use of such products meet their individual countries' federal and local 

government's rules or regulations for RF devices. If you are unsure of your government's requirement or 

unable to comply with them, please do not purchase this product. Please do not alter the purchased product 

in violation of said rules and regulations because Wow Hobbies cannot be held liable for operator's misuse 

or modification of a legal product.
