Assembling

IMPORTANT! If one Unimod type A1 has already been mounted and we want to build a new Unimod type B1 from it, just unscrew the MY1 module and rotate it 90 degrees clockwise.

Steps 0-3: The same than for the Unimod A1

The step from 0 to 3 are exactly the same than for assembling Unimod type A1:

• Step 0: Remove the paint from the inside of the Part B drill (Optional)
• Step 1: Place the male/female spacers in part D
• Step 2: Screw the_battery pack to the part D
• Step 3: Screw the Skycube board to the part D

Step 4: Screw the MY1 module to the Skycube board

IMPORTANT! Place the module on top of the Skycube board in the same orientation shown in the picture.

Paso 5: Conectar el servo y la alimentación

• Conectar el servo a la Skycube, en cualquier de los conectores rectos, correspondientes a los servos 2, 4, 6 u 8. El cable negro del servo tiene que apuntar hacia el switch rojo de on-off.
