ISOLATOR CARTRIDGES
Different Isolator Cartridges can be used to fine tune vibration damping
performance for different payload weights. Three isolation cartridge styles are
provided with ALTA 8. The cartridges have o-rings colored red for light payloads, teal
for medium payloads, and black for heavy payloads. Flight testing may be required
to determine the optimal isolator for a given setup.
To install, place the cartridges between the top chassis plate and the battery plate.
Ensure they are engaged in the track features and are parallel with the chassis and
battery plate. Push inwards fully until they click, indicating the cartridges are locked
in place. Pull outwards on the cartridge to ensure it is locked in place.
CAUTION
Always ensure isolator cartridges are locked in place
before flying ALTA 8. Isolator cartridges that are not
locked can cause the payload to loosen and change
ALTA 8’s fundamental flying characteristics.
To remove, pinch the cartridge latch to unlock it from the battery and chassis plate.
Simultaneously pull the battery and chassis plate apart while pulling the cartridge
outward.
