Hardware Installation¶
Assembly¶
Two M3 screws are recommended to assemble mechanically the MC01 to a frame. Its fixation holes do not have thread, then it is necessary to use more than 2mm as thread depth.

3 Pin Output Connector¶
The 3 pin connector has the power outputs for motor power supply, each pin corresponds to a phase (A, B and C).
CAN Assembly¶
A 120 Ohm resistor is required to connect via CAN a MC01 With a Veronte Autopilot. The following figure describes how to assembe the CAN connection with more devices.
