# S500 drone frame assembly

{% hint style="warning" %}
This page is **archived**. You are probably looking for the up-to-date [assembly guide](/hovergames/userguide/assembly.md).
{% endhint %}

This section is a guide on how to build the HoverGames drone with the S500 drone frame. It works best when the pages are read in the order in which they appear in the menu. You should start with mounting the motors, and finish with mounting the FMU and GPS.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The S500 drone frame was included in early drone kits in 2018. All new kits send out to HoverGames participants should include the new LJI X4 500 drone frame, which [has its own section](/hovergames/userguide/assembly.md) with assembly instructions.

Also, this section is still based on the RDDRONE-FMUK66 Rev. B (also known as NXPhlite). When RDDRONE-FMUK66 Rev. C is released, this section will not be updated anymore and will become outdated.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://nxp.gitbook.io/hovergames/archive/s500-drone-frame.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
