3DR ArduCopter Hexa-B and APM 2.5 Assembly HELP

Can someone please post some links for any source that can helping a new person assemble 3DR Hexa-B with the newer APM 2.5 flight control?  I used the link for the generic Hexa-B user manual but it shows assembly using the APM 2.0 which requires different connections to the PD board?

I can also use guidence on which cables to connect to the ESC's? I read somewhere that it really does not matter which order the cables from the motor connects to the ESC's. Is this correct? Ideally a link to some YouTube videos would be especially helpful...

  • The power distribution board is labeled if you look closely, Im not aware of any deviations from the manual.

    From the esc to the motors there are 3 wires coming out and it does not matter what way they are connected until you you check the motor direction. If a motor is spinning the wrong way then you switch out any two wires.
