Maintenance
1. Battery Care
- Always use the provided USB charging cable for charging.
- Do not overcharge or over-discharge the battery.
- Store batteries in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- If the drone will not be used for an extended period, charge the battery to about 50% before storage.
2. Propeller Replacement
If propellers are damaged, replace them with the spare blades provided in the package. Ensure the correct propeller (A or B) is installed on the corresponding motor.
3. Cleaning and Storage
Clean the drone with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Avoid using harsh chemicals. When not in use, fold the drone and store it in the provided backpack to protect it from dust and damage.
Troubleshooting
- Drone not powering on: Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly installed.
- Unstable flight: Recalibrate the 6-axis gyro. Ensure the drone is placed on a flat surface during power-on and pairing. Check for damaged propellers.
- Loss of control/signal: Ensure you are within the R/C distance (1000m) and WiFi distance (1000m). Avoid areas with strong electromagnetic interference. The 5GHz technology helps with anti-interference.
