Post-Flight Inspection and Maintenance Checklist
√
Cleaning
Make sure the battery is not connected before cleaning. Remove dust and debris with a
soft brush or a dry, lint-free cloth.
Motors
Replace the motor when the model will not fl y steady or veers off when doing a climb out.
Wiring
Make sure the wiring does not block moving parts. Replace damaged wiring and loose
connectors.
Fasteners
Make sure there are no loose screws, other fasteners or connectors. Do not over-tighten
metal screws in plastic parts. Tighten screws so the parts are mated together, then turn
the screw only 1/8th of a turn more. Do not use threadlock on or near plastic parts.
Propellers
Make sure there is no damage to the propellers or other parts that move at high speed.
Damage to these parts includes cracks, burrs, chips or scratches. Replace damaged
parts before fl ying.
WARNING:
Remove the propellers from the motors prior to performing any troubleshooting
or maintenance. Failure to do so may cause serious injury if the motors start unexpetedly.
