Check HDMI Connection

To check the connection of the HDMI cable inside Solo we need to remove motor pods #02 and #03, and
we will need to remove the battery tray and check under the board.

Remove Motors 02 & 03

To remove a Motor Pod, first, use a small, flat prying tool to remove the LED cover form the underside of
the arm. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to remove the four screws securing the pod to the arm.

Please use a zip tie to wrap the cables that go from the motor pod to the board, leaving the long part of the
tie out. Disconnect the wide beige connector, the red wire and the black wire to remove the old motor pod.
To remove the wide beige connector (DF13), carefully lift the edges of the connector away from the pod
until they pop out, then remove the connector. Dont pull on the wires! The connector can break easily if
force is used to remove it.

Remove GoPro Mount

Turn your Solo upside down to remove the GoPros mount. Once Solo is upside down use a Phillips
screwdriver to remove the three screws securing the mount to Solo.

Once you have removed all three screws proceed to remove the mount by lifting it, but be careful to not
break the clips showed on the picture.

The GPS cover is the flat, black end cap in front of the battery tray. To remove it, use a small, flat prying tool
to loosen the four clips along the back edge of the cover.

Battery Tray Removal

To detach the battery tray and access Solos main electronics bay, use a small Philips screwdriver to
remove the 7 screws securing the battery tray to Solo.

The battery tray will still be connected to Solo via the GPS cable, so carefully lift out the tray just enough to
access the board beneath. Please proceed to remove the GPS cable carefully.

Please be careful with these green and white cables, they send the information of the battery to
the Pixhawk and they can break easily.

Please remove the metallic screw shown in the picture to be able to remove the board from the Shell.

Once you remove the screws slide carefully the board to Solos right side to be able to pull the board from
one side to be able to check the HDMI cable.

Pull carefully the left side of the board having special caution with the Antennas connected to the board,
since they can get easily disconnected and this would affect your Solos performance.
