• Rotating propellers can cause serious injury. Never initiate takeoff from
your hand. Do not try to grab AirDog before it lands automatically on the
ground and before the propellers are switched off and stop rotating.
• Do not fly AirDog indoors or at night. Always fly outside in open areas.
• AirDog is not set up for obstacle avoidance and you must ensure there are
no obstacles in the flight area that could disturb the flight, such as: trees,
crowds, bodies of water, buildings or high voltage power lines.
• Check the weather conditions and do not fly AirDog when the weather is
windy, rainy, snowy, foggy, or when visibility is limited. These include wind
speed exceeding 28 knots (15 meters per second, 32 miles per hour, 52
kilometers per hour).
• Reduce the chance of electromagnetic interference by not flying AirDog
in areas with significant high levels of electromagnetism such as base
stations, radio towers or on-board radio transmission equipment.
• Do not use AirDog under the influence of medications, drugs or alcohol.
• Drones should always be kept away from police operations, accident
scenes, building fires and rescue operations as there is a serious risk of
mid-air collision with an aircraft or a helicopter, which could
cause an accident.
• Ensure that the use of AirDog is authorized in your flight area and at a safe
distance of 25 feet (7 meters) away from individuals, vulnerable property,
persons and animals.
• Do not initiate takeoff from a boat or a moving platform. Even for very
large ships, a boat is always moving. To perform its initialization, it is
mandatory that AirDog remains completely motionless for a few moments.
Such requirements are impossible on a moving platform like the deck
of a boat.
