Operational safety guidelines
First and foremost: SAFETY FIRST! Follow all procedures described in this manual!
All safety guidelines issued by DJI for the A3, DJI Lightbridge 2, DJI Go app and DJI GS PRO app apply to
the STORMBEE and its operations as well, except if they conflict with the STORMBEE guidelines in
which case the STORMBEE guidelines have priority. In case of conflict, the STORMBEE manual should
explicitly mention this conflict and instruct you to ignore that specific DJI guideline. If this is not the
case, or in case of doubt, contact Think 3D or one of its resellers or authorised maintenance centres.
An example of conflict between DJI guidelines and STORMBEE guidelines is with regards to the
firmware update. DJI requires its users to update all firmware as soon as it is released. A firmware
update of any STORMBEE (DJI) component or accessory is only allowed to be performed by Think 3D
or one of its authorised maintenance centres. The manual, at various locations, explicitly mentions this
conflict and instructs STORMBEE user to ignore this specific DJI guideline.
All safety guidelines issued by GensAce Tattu, with respect to the LiPo batteries used by STORMBEE,
and FARO, with respect to its Focus (series) laser scanner, should be read and adhered to.
Some safety guidelines are listed in this chapter, but the absence of one here, which is still mentioned
in the DJI, Tattu or FARO Focus
safety guidelines doesn’t
mean that they should not be followed.
STORMBEE general safety guidelines:
1.
Do not leave the STORMBEE in direct sunlight on warm summer days. The carbon plates and
arms heat up fast and the temperature within STORMBEE may reach dangerous levels with
respect to the electronics.
2.
Ensure the remote controller, aircraft battery and your mobile device (for the app) are
sufficiently charged.
3.
Ensure the propellers are securely mounted onto the motors, and the motors can start and
function normally.
4.
Ensure you observe all local regulations, obtain appropriate authorization and understand the
potential risks. REMEMBER: It is solely your responsibility to comply with all flight regulations.
5.
Ensure your flight area is not near a No-Fly Zone and that conditions are suitable for flying the
aircraft.
6.
DO NOT attempt to fly under the influence of alcohol, drugs or any substance that may impair
your cognitive abilities.
7.
Ensure you are familiar with the selected flight mode and understand all safety functions and
warnings.
8.
Ensure the compass is calibrated if the app requires you to. Failure to do so may lead to
unexpected flight behaviour or serious accidents.
9.
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.
10.
When to calibrate:
a.
When compass data is abnormal, and the LED module is blinking red and yellow.
b.
When severe drifting occurs in flight, i.e. the aircraft DOES NOT fly in straight lines.
11.
Land immediately when severe drifting occurs in flight, i.e., the aircraft DOES NOT fly in straight
lines.
