Pre-Flight Checklist
Compass Calibration
1.DO NOT use the aircraft in adverse weather conditions, such as heavy rain, high winds, fog, snow,
lightning, tornadoes, or hurricanes.
2.Only fly in open areas. Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the search for satellite signals.
3.Maintain line of sight of the aircraft at all times, and avoid flying near obstacles, crowds, animals, trees,
and bodies of water.
4.Avoid flying in areas with high levels of electromagnetism, including mobile phone base stations and radio
transmission towers.
5.DO NOT operate the aircraft indoors.
1. Ensure that all parts are mounted correctly and firmly.
2. Ensure that the ESCs and receiver are connected correctly and firmly.
3. Ensure that the spraying hoses are without any blockage.
4. Test if the nozzles work normally.
Ensure the compass is calibrated before every flight. Failure to calibrate may lead to poor flight performance
or a crash.
1. DO NOT attempt to calibrate your compass where there is a chance of strong magnetic interference.
This includes areas where there are massive metal objects, parking structures, steel reinforcements
underground, or under bridges.
2. DO NOT carry ferromagnetic materials with you during calibration, such as keys or mobile phones.
3. The compass should always be calibrated when moving from indoor spaces to outdoor spaces.
4. After successful calibration, the compass may become abnormal when you place the aircraft on the
ground. This may be because of underground magnetic interference. Move the aircraft to another location
and try again.
