SPEKTRUM™ 32 FLIGHT CONTROL BOARD
The Spektrum 32 Flight Control Board comes pre loaded with cleanfl ight confi gured to use the
Spektrum SPM4648 Remote RX. To save time and get in the air as quickly as possible use the
remote RX plugged directly into the pre wired Spektrum connector on the board.
The board does come with enough straight and right angle header pins to occupy all pin-outs if
desired.
IMPORTANT: The header pins are not installed and do require basic soldering skills.
IMPORTANT: The warranty does not cover damage from soldering, static or from reverse polarity.
WARNING: This board does not have reverse polarity protection. Any reverse polarity will
destroy the board and any connected peripherals.
WARNING: This board is a static sensitive device. Use caution when handling and make
sure to follow proper anti static procedures.

3. Use the included wiring harness to complete the installation. Use a sharp razor to remove any
unused pins from the harness and connectors.
4. Install the pins down through the top of board on the Input Rail with the longer ends facing
up. Carefully solder each pin from the bottom of the board.
ESC RAIL
Power for the Spektrum 32 Flight Control Board comes from either the connected ESC's with linear
BEC's, a switching BEC or from a voltage regulator supplying 5V to the ESC Rail.

The Cleanfl ight confi gurator is an open source Google Chrome Application that can be found in the
Google Chrome Web Store.
Installation:
1. From the Google Chrome Web Store, search for Cleanfl ight Confi gurator. Install and run the
App from within Google Chrome. Cleanfl ight is compatible with any operating system capable
of running Google Chrome.
2. Download the driver required to allow Cleanfl ight to communicate with the Flight Control
Board over USB. The driver can be found by following the link on the main page of Cleanfl ight
shown below:
IMPORTANT: Cleanfl ight will need to be restarted and in some cases the operating system may
need to be restarted for the drivers to take effect.

3. Connect the Spektrum 32 Flight Control Board to a micro USB Charge/DATA cord and then
connect to the computer.
IMPORTANT: A USB charge only cord will not work. It must be capable of transferring DATA.
4. Make sure the correct port is selected and push the connect Button. For future connections

To update:
1. Click on "Disconnect" if the board is already connected. DO NOT unplug the board from the
computer at this time.
D. Remote RX
2. Go to the fi rmware tab on the Cleanfl ight main screen.
3. In the "Choose a Firmware/Board" drop down menu choose the newest stable NAZE update.
4. Download the Firmware by clicking the "Load Firmware [Online]" button at the bottom of the
screen.
5. Once downloaded, click on the "Flash Firmware" button at the bottom of the screen. Let the
up dater work without disturbing the board. When the progress bar shows "Programming:
SUCCESSFUL" it is now safe to disconnect or go on to programming the board.
IMPORTANT: Flashing the Firmware will erase all content on the board. Always have a back up
saved to your local hard drive. To back up the board go to the Setup tab and click on Backup.

BASIC PROGRAMMING
The Spektrum 32 Flight Control Board comes pre confi gured to use the Spektrum (SPM4648)
remote receiver. To fi nish the basic setup, follow these steps below.
IMPORTANT: Download and read the full manual found in the Documentation & Support tab.
IMPORTANT: Not all options or settings will be discussed in this manual.
1. Setup: The Setup Screen is the fi rst screen that appears once the board has successfully
connected to Cleanfl ight. It has a real time graphical representation of the boards orientation
and is where back up/restore of a model takes place.
2. Confi guration: In the Mixer section "Quad X" is the default confi guration. Note the number
and direction of each motor.
In the Receiver Mode section select RX_SERIAL if using the Spektrum 4648 receiver.
BASIC PROGRAMMING-CONTINUED
3. Failsafe: Use the default settings. Read the "Failsafe" section in the full manual for more
information.
4. PID tuning: Use the default settings to get started. Read the "PID Tuning" section in the full
manual for more information.
TIP: PID Tuning directly effects the quality of fl ight from the aircraft. There are great resources on
the internet to help with understanding PID tuning. Several resources are listed in the RESOURCES
section below.
IMPORTANT: Perform a Back up before changing PID values.
5. Receiver: Use this tab to monitor output direction from the receiver and to set expo, deadband
and rate.
6. Modes: Use this tab to setup switch assignments such as ARM, ANGLE and HORIZON
modes. Read the "Modes" section in the full manual for more information.
7. Motors: Use this tab to test output and direction of all or selected motors.
WARNING: All motors should have the propellers removed. Moving the sliders in this
screen will cause the motors to spin up.
TEST FLIGHT
Once all programing is complete and the model is assembled, it is important to test fl y the aircraft.
If you have not calibrated the Accelerometer now is a good time. With the board connected to
Cleanfl ight and the aircraft sitting on a level surface, go to the setup tab and click the "Calibrate
Accelerometer" button.
• Test the aircraft in a safe environment away from people or animals.
• After confi rming the rotor blades rotate in the correct direction, test the motor response
controls.
• Adjust the throttle to a low level of power where the aircraft begins to get "light" on its landing
skids.
• Move the rudder stick a small amount to the right. The nose of the quadcopter should start to
rotate to the right (clockwise).
• Move the rudder stick a small amount to the left. The nose of the quadcopter should start to
rotate to the left (counter-clockwise).
• Move the elevator control stick forward. The REAR should lift from the fl oor.
• Move the elevator control stick backward. The FRONT should lift from the fl oor.
• Move the aileron stick right. The LEFT side should lift from the fl oor.
• Move the aileron stick left. The RIGHT side should lift from the fl oor.
• Keep note of any changes that need to be made to the programming.
• ALWAYS REMOVE THE PROPELLERS WHEN MAKING CHANGES TO THE PROGRAMMING.
• When rotors turn correctly and respond correctly to controls,the aircraft is ready for its fi rst fl ight!
