4.5 Maintaining Drone Condition
To maintain DroneePLANE at peak operating efficiency, several simple maintenance
tasks should be performed regularly.
After you have disassembled the drone, use a soft dry cloth to make sure that all parts
of the drone are clean and dry. Then return it to the carrying case,
Before the drone is returned to the carrying container, check for dents and other
conditions that might have resulted from rough landings or encounters with tree
branches. Be sure that these are repaired before your next project starts.
The battery should be kept at full charge, so recharge it at regular intervals.
A checklist will help you be sure that all parts are placed back in the carrying case. You
don’t want to get to the site of your next survey only to discover that the drone is missing
a winglet.
Missing parts may be ordered through your drone retailer. Order any missing parts as
soon as you notice a part is needed, this will assure that the part reaches you before
your next project begins.
When not in use, store the drone in its carrying case in a cool dry place. Avoid excessive
heat or cold. The storage area should have consistent conditions.
Troubleshooting
5.0 Flight Errors:
-Battery too low for take-off: The battery level is too low to perform a take-off. User
action: Re-connect a fully-charged battery
-High current: if airplane draws high current, this may indicate internal problem. Re-
connect the battery. If the problem recurs twice, contact Dronee.
-Magnetometer malfunction: That means there is an error with the drone’s
magnetometer. Unplug and plug the battery, don’t move plane about 1 minute. If
the problem persists, contact Dronee.
-Barometer malfunction: That means there is an error with drone’s barometer.
Unplug the battery, place drone on a flat surface, reconnect the battery and don’t
move the drone for about 1 minute. If this does not solve the problem contact
Dronee
- INS or Attitude malfunction: The orientation sensors were not calibrated correctly.
User action: Place the drone on a flat surface, reconnect the battery and do not
move the drone until pre-flight checks are complete. If this does not solve the
problem contact Dronee.
