Caution
: Avoid bringing the Drone Plane into direct contact with water, as this may
damage the electronics within the drone airframe. And keep your drone in dry
environment
4.3 Full airframe and sensor inspection
Beyond the general airframe inspection that should be performed before every flight,
we recommend that you perform a full airframe and sensor inspection regularly to keep
your drone in good operating condition.
Caution
: The propeller on drone spins at high speed, and can cause deep cuts if it
comes in contact with exposed skin. Always wear safety gloves and goggles when any
work is done requiring the battery to be connected to the drone.
4.4 Proper battery care
Proper care of your drones’ battery is important. this will help to increase battery life and
will prevent damage to your drone and maximize flight time. The DroneePLANE will fly
for about 50-55 minutes with a full battery. Flight endurance is affected by several
factors, including altitude changes, wind, using old batteries and/or frequent photo
acquisition Batteries perform better at medium or high air temperature, also you might
get shorter flight time at cold withers.
The DroneePLANE is powered by Lithium Ion(Li-ion) battery packed of three cells serial.
A single LiPo cell can have a range between 3v (empty) and 4.2 V(full) in its normal
operating range. This results in an empty battery pack voltage of 9v and a fully charged
battery pack 12.6V. A well -balanced and healthy battery should have all three cells at a
voltage very close to each other and between 3 and 4.2V.
The charger delivered with your drone automatically checks for healthy voltages of all
three cells and only attempts charging if they are within limits. If the cells are out of
balance, the charger will rebalance them. If the balancer detects a voltage outside of the
allowable range it will not start to charge. This means that the battery is over-discharged
and should not be used again.
Caution:
The battery delivered with your drone are designed to be charged with the
charger in the DroneePLANE package. Dronee Ltd cannot be held responsible for any
consequences resulting from using a different charger.
We recommend that you always fully charge the battery after use, even when it is only
partially discharged. When the battery is not in use, store it in the carrying case provided
with your drone. Avoid leaving the battery in direct sunlight.
