Project Quiver Dev-Kit Manufacturing Guide

PCB Assembly Guides

Main PCB

This chapter will help with the project Quiver Main PCB assembly process.

[!Note] This is not a final version of this document. The given instructions will give a general guide on the assembly process. Assembly should only be carried out by an experienced worker with experience in SMD soldering and the appropriate equipment. If you need this PCB fully assembled please contact the project Quiver team.

This PCB can be ordered fully assembled from the respective PCB manufacturer (e.g. JLCPCB). There are several parts that are normally not in stock at the PCB manufacturer and need to be sourced from one of the large electronic component distributors by the PCB manufacturer. This means that the production time for a finished PCB is around 3 weeks.

The manual soldering of the circuit board can be done with the help of this interactive BOM which is stored in the respective github folder of this PCB (it is not recommended):

This is an HTML file that opens in the browser. On the left side is the parts list and on the right side are the views for the front and back of the circuit board. It will help to put the components in the right place.

It is essential to use a pcb stencil to place the solder paste in the right places. A reflow oven or a hot air blower (temperature and airflow controllable) should be used for the soldering process.

Additional Steps

The main pcb has designated mounting positions for additional devices apart from the flight controller:

  • Raspberry Pi
  • GNSS
  • 2X 4 port ethernet switch

These additional devices are not necessary to ensure the basic function of the board.

Battery Control PCB

This chapter will help with the project Quiver BC PCB (Battery connector PCB) assembly process.

[!Note] This is not a final version of this document. The given instructions will give a general guide on the assembly process. Assembly should only be carried out by an experienced worker with experience in SMD soldering and the appropriate equipment. If you need this PCB fully assembled please contact the project Quiver team.

This PCB can be ordered (almost) fully assembled from the respective PCB manufacturer (e.g. JLCPCB). There are several parts that are normally not in stock at the PCB manufacturer and need to be sourced from one of the large electronic component distributors by the PCB manufacturer. This means that the production time for a finished PCB is around 3 weeks.

The large molex battery connectors (J9, J10) still need manual assembly at the moment. A quick explanation is written under the chapter: Additional Steps

Additional Steps

1. Adding the Molex battery connector (J9, J10):

The molex battery connector can not be bought in one piece at the moment (12/25). It's assembled from four individual parts (1x guiding pin left, 1x guiding pin right, 2x Molex 46437-9206). The guiding pins are sourced from a pre assembled Molex connector 464379-301. The individual parts can be clipped together and then inserted into the PCB. The connector pins should be manually soldered to the PCB.

Picture:PCB with Molex connector

2. Installation of the heatsink:

The heatsink must be attached to the PCB for the PCB to function properly. The heat sink is in direct contact with the frame of the drone and ensures that the power mosfets are well cooled.

  • Gap filler: Arctic TP-3 thermal pad: https://www.arctic.de/TP-3/ACTPD00057A
  • Nylon spacers: McMaster 99072A104
  • Screws: McMaster 92125A090
  • Washers: McMaster 95610A011
  • Nuts: McMaster 90591A270

Please secure the screws of the heatsink with loctite.

Picture: Thermal pad area and nylon spacer location

Picture: Screwed down heatsink

3. Installation of the fuse:

A AMX-200 fuse needs to be mounted between J7 and J8. Please use loctite to secure the screws.

Example screws: McMaster 98093A213

Flight Controller PCB

This chapter will help with the project Quiver FC PCB (Flight controller PCB) assembly process.

[!Note] This is not a final version of this document. The given instructions will give a general guide on the assembly process. Assembly should only be carried out by an experienced worker with experience in SMD soldering and the appropriate equipment. If you need this PCB fully assembled please contact the project Quiver team.

This PCB can be ordered fully assembled from the respective PCB manufacturer (e.g. JLCPCB). The 100 pin connectors (J1, J2, J3) are normally not in stock and must be ordered from the manufacturer. This means that the production time for a finished PCB is around 3 weeks.

The manual soldering of the circuit board can be done with the help of this interactive BOM which is stored in the respective github folder of this PCB(it is not recommended):

Harness Manufacturing Guide

Purpose

This chapter explains how to manufacture and assemble the wiring harnesses for all of the components present on the dev kit build. Modifications include custom cut spool cables, pre made cables, pre crimped cables, and reducing length of default connectors.

Use the following wiring table for all of the connections TO/FROM for all of the dev kit’s systems: Dev Kit Wire Data The spreadsheet gives the full view of all connectors, mating connectors, wire gauge, estimated length, and suggested/default wire colors.

How To Use This Guide

This guide will detail the manufacturing process for all harnesses in no particular order. It is intended to be broken up and placed in the manufacturing guide according to the Quiver assembly steps. This is to allow harness routing that may be blocked by the installation of certain structural components. The user is encouraged to treat this document as a knowledge base and prep guide for the harnessing. Installation steps will be covered in the broader assembly guide.

Tools Required

  • Soldering iron with hot air rework station
  • Solder
  • Wire stripper
  • Wire cutter
  • Heat shrink
  • Heat shrink solder connectors
  • Flathead screwdriver (1.5mm)
  • Pliers
  • Multimeter

Quality Assurance (QC) Checklist

  • Visual: Check for exposed strands or damaged insulation.
  • Mechanical: Pull-test all crimps lightly to ensure retention.
  • Continuity: Probe Pin 1 to Pin 1 (Tone check).
  • Polarity: Verify Red is Positive, Black is Ground.

3. Wire Prep (Cut & Strip)

All wires connecting the payload to the PCBs will use pre-crimped jumper wires. Mouser #: 538-79758-1149

Technician will have to combine two cables to create a 400mm cable.

Step 1: Cut to Length

  1. Take two separate cable assemblies.

  2. Measure 205mm from the back of the connector on the first cable.

  3. Cut the wire at the 205mm mark. Discard the excess.

  4. Repeat for the second cable.

    • Note: We cut to 205mm (not 200mm) to allow 5mm of overlap for the splice, resulting in a final length of 400mm.

Step 2: Strip Insulation

  1. Strip 5mm of insulation from the cut end of the first cable.

  2. Strip 5mm of insulation from the cut end of the second cable.

Step 3: Insert Sleeve (Critical Step)

  1. Before connecting the wires, slide the Self-Solder Heat Shrink Sleeve onto one of the cables.

  2. Slide it at least 50mm down the wire so the heat from soldering doesn't shrink it prematurely.

Step 4: Mesh the Wires

  1. Fan out the exposed strands of both cables slightly.

  2. Push the two ends together so the strands interlace (mesh) with each other inline. Do not twist them side-by-side (pigtail).

  3. Once meshed, twist the joined section to lock the strands together. The splice should be smooth and straight.

Step 5: Position the Sleeve

  1. Slide the solder sleeve over the twisted joint.

  2. Center the low-temperature solder ring directly over the bare copper twist.

  3. Ensure the colored adhesive rings (at the ends of the sleeve) are covering the wire insulation, not the bare copper.

Step 6: Apply Heat

  1. Using a heat gun, heat the center solder ring first. Watch for the solder to melt and flow into the wire strands (it will turn shiny and liquid).

  2. Move the heat to the ends of the sleeve to shrink the tubing and activate the waterproof adhesive seals.

  3. Allow to cool for 30 seconds before moving. Do not pull on the cable while the solder is hot.

Final Check

  • Total Length: Confirm the total length is 400mm.

  • Solder Joint: Ensure the solder ring has fully melted and is not visible as a solid ring anymore.

  • Insulation: Ensure there is no exposed copper outside the sleeve.
