Flying ELIOS 3
Every ELIOS 3 pilot must complete Flyability’s “Introductory training” course before operating the drone.
Different training options are available and all the details can be found on our website

Power button
ELIOS 3 is equipped with a power button. Press this button to switch on the drone before takeoff.
Figure 4.1: Power Button
Pressing the power button will power up all the electronics and payloads on the drone, which will needlessly
drain the battery if done too long before take-off. We recommend turning on the drone shortly before flight.
Please be aware that the drone will automatically shut down after 5 minutes of inactivity, unless you keep
wiggling the sticks of the remote control (this will prevent it from turning off).
