Standard connexion
This connector is not waterproof. Be sure to always check there is no water left and dry it if needed.
When not using it keep always the black caps closed.

To connect the WiFi Reel to the drone, first remove the black protective cap on the drone and the connector of the WiFi Reel cable.
Screw the two caps together to prevent them from hanging and getting stuck in the engines. And thus avoid any damage to the drone.
Screw the WiFi Reel cable to the drone, making sure to align the cable guide in the plug on the drone.
Hold the connector straight and screw the cable to the drone, using the screw ring provided for this purpose. There is no need to force, use the screw ring.

 

 

 

 

 

Subconn connexion
This connector is waterproof. You can open it underwater if needed. In order to ensure the longevity of the connector regularly put grease on the pins.

On the drone and on the WiFi Reel, unscrew the red nuts and separate the tips.
Make sure to reconnect the tip of the drone connector to the connector of the WiFi Reel so as not to lose it.

 

 

 

 

Connect the cable connector to the drone connector and screw back the red nut.

The WiFi Reel is composed of two elements:

Connect the reel cable to the drone and connect the control unit with the Seasam Control Application to the WiFi Reel.
Then drive the drone remotely with video feedback from the drone camera live on the control unit
