User manual
It should take a maximum of 90 minutes to fully charge the aircraft battery, though charging times will 
vary according to the remaining power level. 
Additional information: 
• Do not use a damaged battery charger. 
• When the charger is not in use, disconnect it from the aircraft battery and the power source. 
• Wait until the battery has cooled down to room temperature before charging it. If you  connect the 
battery to the charger immediately after flight, overheat protection will prevent charging. 
Battery Storage 
In storage as in flight, it’s important not to allow the battery to come in close contact with moisture or 
heat sources. Store the battery in a dry and well ventilated area at room temperature — ideally 22°C to 
28°C (72°F to 82°F).  
Additional information:
• Keep the battery out of reach of children and pets. 
• Do not store the battery in direct sunlight or near sharp items, moisture, metal, or reactive chemicals. 
• Storing the battery at extreme temperatures will reduce its lifespan. If the battery is left unused for 
over 6 days, store it at a temperature between -10°C (14°F) and 30°C (86°F). Otherwise, battery 
damage or failure may result. 
• Over time, some reduction in battery life is expected. 
Battery Disposal 
• Completely discharge the battery before disposal. 
• Dispose of the battery properly at an approved battery recycling location. 
Flying the Aircraft Safely & Securely 
Flight Environment 
• Comply with all local regulations on flying drones. Only fly within designated drone flying areas, and 
set compliant distance and height limits using the Autel Explorer
TM
 app. 
• Do not fly in hazardous situations or  severe weather conditions, such as tornadoes, rain, hail, or 
snow. 
• Do not fly the aircraft near facilities that could produce electromagnetic interference, such as power 
plants, transmission lines, substations, high winds and broadcasting towers. 
•  Fly  in  an  open  and  safe  area.  Avoid  obstacles  that  can  interfere  with  the  GPS  signal,  such  as 
buildings and trees. 
• Exercise caution when flying in environments over 6000 meters (18,000 feet) above sea level, as 
the aircraft's battery and power system performance may be affected. 
Before Flying 
Before flying the aircraft, always ensure that: 
• The remote control, the battery, and the mobile device used with the Autel Explorer
TM
 app are fully 
charged. 
• The propellers are correctly installed and not damaged. 
• The aircraft's front and back arms are fully unfolded. 
• The aircraft's motor, gimbal, and camera work properly when the aircraft is powered on. 
• All warnings and error messages displayed on the app have been addressed. 
Only use accessories that came with the aircraft, are sold or authorized by Autel Robotics for use with 
the aircraft. Using unapproved accessories presents serious risks to safety and will void the product’s 
warranty. 
While Flying 
• During takeoff and landing, keep the aircraft away from people, vehicles, and other moving objects.
