# Disclaimer Read this disclaimer carefully before using FlameWheel 550. By using this product, you hereby agree to this disclaimer and signify that you have read them fully. FlameWheel 550 is an excellent multi-rotor. With a good autopilot, it will even offer tremendous flight features for low altitude flight working in restricted space. Despite the controller of autopilot operates in the safest manner when the main power battery is connected, we strongly recommend customers to remove all propellers, use power supply from R/C system or flight pack battery, and keep children away during system calibration and parameter setup. Please respect the AMA's National Model Aircraft Safety Code. Please install and use this product in strict accordance with the User Manual. SZ DJI Technology Co., Ltd. and its affiliated companies assume no liability for damage(s) or injuries incurred directly or indirectlyfrom using, installing or refitting this product improperly, including butnot limitedto using non-designated accessories.

# F550 Profile FlameWheel 550 (F550) is a multi-rotor designed for all pilots for fun or AP. With DJI WKM or NAZAautopilot system, it can achieve hovering, cruising, even rolling and otherflight elements. It can be applied for entertainment, aerial photography, FPV and other aero-modeling activities. 

# & Product Usage Cautions When flying, the fast rotating propellers of FlameWheel 550 will cause serious damage and injury. Therefore, pleaseflywith a high safety consciousness. 1. Keep flying multi- rotor away from objects, such as obstacles, human beings, high- voltage lines and so on. 2. Do not get close to or even touch the working motors and propellers, which will cause serious injury. 3. Do notover load the multi-rotor. 4. Checkthatthe propellers and the motors are installed correctly and firmly beforeflight. 5. Checkwhether all parts of multi- rotor are in good condition before flight. Do not fly with old or broken parts. 6. Use DJI parts as much as possible. Ifyou have any problemyou cannot solve during installation, please contactour customer service.

1. Please solder each ESC to the power pads on the bottom board as shown in the figure below. Make sure that the solder is firmly attached on the power pads and that there is no possibilityfor ashort circuit. The power cable is a coaxial power cable. Do not damage the protector on the red cable to avoid short circuit. The red core of the coaxial power cable is positive, and the shielding layer of the coaxial power cable is negative. Make sure to solder them correctly at the proper length (the wires should be just long enough to reach the soldering point, face outwards, and should not be bunched up in front ofthe soldering point). 2. Connect the signal cable to your controller. The orange wire of the signal cable is for the control signal; the brown wire of the signal cable is for the GNO. 3. Connect the motor to the ESC. Test the motor and make sure the rotation direction of each motor is correct. If not, switch the position of any two cables that are connecting the motor to the ESC to change the rotation direction.

PowercableFlameWheel 550 User Manual 

## LD, • Please solder ESCs to power pads on bottom board as the figure shows. • Use any insulating method at all soldering spots. Make sure there is no short or

open circuit. • Make sure the side of power pads is upward. 

# Assembly 1. Install the bottom board. Note to install the screws by appropriate force to prevent breaking threads. Use adequate screw glue for installing screws. 2. Install your flight control system and electronic system. 3. Install ESCs and motors. Make sure the rotation direction of each motor is the same as the way in the figure shows. If not, switch any oftwo wire connections ofthe incorrect motor to change its rotation direction. 4. Tidy all cables. Make sure all cables are not be cut by the frame boards and propellers. Smooth out the boards edge if necessary. 5. Install the top board. 6. Install the propellers. Please install the propellers after the flight control system configuration procedure. Make sure the rotation direction of propellers are the same as the figure shows. Tighten the propeller by rotating it in lock direction. Do not use any thread lock.

### Please read through the manual carefully before installation andflying This manual aims to help directthe useron howto build the Penguin RC plane. Penguin pilots' feedbacks: the Penguine is easy flying, recommend for FPV beginner Pleasevisitthe Finwing official websiteforadditional highlighted features, functions, and more. 

## Warning:
1. This model airplane is not a toy, not recommended for children under 14 years old, 2. Be cautious and preparedwhileflying this plane as a range ofissues could leadto a crash including the environment/weather, speed, piloterror, improper building/testing, interference orothercomponentfailures. 3. Flyingfield: Choose an adequateflying space at least 100 meters long/wide and in an unpopulated and non-built up areaforsafeflying. This includes avoiding flying overcities orother populated areas. 4. Pleasedon'tflythis model airplane in bad weather including rainy and/orwindy environments. 5. Rememberto unplugyourflight/video batterywhen not in useto avoid any interferenceto others who might be on similarchannels. 6. Please rememberswitch on thetransmitterfirst before connecting the battery, and disconnect the batteryfirst before switching offyourtransmitter. 7. Keep awayfrom the propellerwhen the Penguin is powered as itcan be dangerousand could lead to injury. Keepthe powered plane awayfrom children atall timesto avoid anyaccidents or injury.

Control horn has been installed on the stabilizer The purpose of the up installed control horn is to avoid "grass Drag" during landing at the grass field, it may need some minor modifications if you like "up installed" but ignore this page if you do not need up stalled control horn

Use hobby knife to elarge the tube slot

Add glue to install the extension tube insert it into position cut out a small slot

### Fuselage installation Jointhetwo halves offuselage Ifyou have otherwiring ormodificationsto add forthe build run thosethrough the fuselage and tail-boom before closing thefuselage *Note: Double checkto ensure all parts are prepared and no parts are missing. MAKE SUREto plan where you need glue beforeyou begin! Gluethe left-halfoffuselage, and other reinforcements partsthatalso need gluing wherethe fuse halves meet. Makesure ample glue is across all pointsto be connected. *Note:All gluing needs to be done atonetime so make sureto move quickly once starting as gluewill dryfast. Gluing should be completed in about9 minutes. *Add a moderate amountofglueto the contactsurface.

Too much glue can cause erosion in thefoar:n. *Note:Glue don't flow to nut



### Join both halves offuselage immediately aftergluing, pressfirmly and use clamps orothertools like painterstapeto secure it until glue has dried. Generallywith air-drying indoorsthe gluewill setaftera 24 hourperiod

### *Install servo, (FUS009)

Push rod and clevis Please find out the Camera mount wood base from Airplane package installed it as needed

This is the third generation canopy. Adopted new material and it' s much better than the Second generation canopy

Don' t recommend over-height Big size and Heavy Camera

### Thanks for buying the great Penguin Aircraft. Here is some of the latest update on how to building the penguin including some tips from previous penguin owners. Thanks for sharing and their efforts, please read it before your building works Aileron Aileron Rudder Update#1 

### New servo horn (left-3PCS) Stainless steel Servo horn



### Vertical stabilizer(Rudder)_Servo&Servo horn installationTips Sharing #1 Some of Penguin owners preferred to install the servo on the H-wing directly or at the back of the fuselages. The Main purpose is to avoid cutting out a hole by the side of the fuselage. Another reason is to use as shorter pull rod as possible, this is good to protect the Servo Gear Here Shown is the pilot modified his Airplane for ur reference

Another Penguin owners modified it like this for your reference *note: All the tips displayed here is Not the must works to do with your building Just sharing information for your reference Please do it according to your own prefere



# ----------------

Tips Sharing #2

Use Velcro to secure it if you wish fast install and uninstall of the cockpit (modified it like the AirTitan Ai I noticed some flyers installed the propeller at wrong direction! Bear in mind for most of the Propeller the embed words forward ( toward the n Outside Coolin

Wrap tape this is the easiest way it' s good to further reinforce this junction
