I also have the cap580 with the brushless setup, it was also my first foamie, had no prob's putting it together,as far as the manual being wrong, yes it was wrong but if you really pay attention you would have caught it, I didn't know it was wrong but what it was saying didnt make sense to me so I got on the website and looked at the tech notes and sure enough there was a note about it, I enjoy it so far, it's been a fun flyer for the front yard.. but this is just my opinion, not trying to be an *****, so please don't take it that way.
