b) Checking the drive

Before operating the quadrocopter, test the drive. Only when all four propellers run smoothly and in a perfect circle 

can the model be flown with the minimum energy consumption. For this reason, you should quickly check the function 

of the drive propellers before each flight.
To do this, rotate each individual propeller carefully with your finger and check the concentricity and the ease of 

movement. 
When doing this, pay attention to the directions of rotation 

of the various propellers. 
When viewed from above, the two top propellers (A) turn 

clockwise, and the two bottom propellers (B) rotate coun-

ter-clockwise.
