DISASSEMBLY AFTER FLIGHT
1. After operations are complete, power down and remove the payload.
2. Before folding the arms of PRISM, the propellers should be folded and secured, and the motors covered
with their dust covers. Fold the arms by pulling up on the round release knob on the left side (as-facing) of
the attachment point, then folding the boom arm against the side of the main airframe. Lift the attaching pin
at the point of contact and allow the arm to lock in place in its folded position. At this time the arm socket
covers may be installed to prevent dirt and other particulates from entering into the arm socket.
3. Remove the landing gear by loosening the cam locks on each of the landing gear tube clamps. Set the
airframe on a flat and level surface.
4. When not in use, the aircraft should be stored inside its case in a climate-controlled environment at room
temperature. The covers should remain in place over the arm sockets as well as the propellers, and the
arms should be folded in and locked in storage position. The case should be stored upright.
5. Batteries should be serviced and stored separately according to their manufacturer specifications. They may
be kept secured to the carbon-fiber battery tray as a set.
