2.2 AIRCRAFT SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
There are two categories of maintenance: preventive and directed. Preventive maintenance is
user-managed and user-performed at manufacturer’s recommendation. Directed maintenance is a required
maintenance/replacement following 3DR guidelines and must be performed at scheduled times.
This maintenance may occur at a 3DR Authorized Service Facility or performed by user (except where noted
in this manual.)
2.2.1 HARDWARE FOR BASIC MAINTENANCE
We recommend a tool kit consisting of:
•
#00 size Phillips screwdriver
•
#0 size Phillips screwdriver
•
#1 size Phillips screwdriver
•
1.5mm Hex Driver
•
2.0mm Hex Driver
•

•

•
Microfiber cleaning cloth

2.2.2 FIRMWARE
We recommend always installing the latest firmware/software for all 3DR aircraft and all related
components. Failure to update aircraft, Ground Control Station and camera system, may result in flight error
for which 3DR cannot be held responsible. Verify you are using the latest firmware using the Site Scan iOS
application (see
3.1 Site Scan Firmware Update.
)
2.2.3 INSPECTIONS OF AIRCRAFT
This guide provides the basics of inspections. However, it’s important to remember that the aircraft
inspection is only a single component of flight safety. Always remember to check local weather, airspace,
flight restrictions and the area in which the aircraft will be flying. Ensure there are no persons, property
or ground hazards/objects in the determined flight areas that may be impacted during flight operations.
Logging maintenance is an industry best-practice, and in some regions, required for regulatory compliance.
Always abide by local flight regulations.
