Assembling Your Xplorer

Understanding the Xplorer and its features and functions is 

also of great importance for enjoying successful flights with 

your drone. 

ASSEMBLING THE XPLORER

 

•  Note: it is suggested that inexperienced users install the 

Xplorer propeller guards (if applicable) until they become 

more familiar with the drone and its flight characteristics. 

These guards will reduce the likelihood of propeller damage 

due to less-than-ideal landings, etc. The propeller guards are 

offered separately and may be purchased from wherever the 

Xplorer was purchased.

PROPELLERS 

 

•  The propellers are located in the packaged marked 

“Propellers/Tools/Spare Parts”.

•  It should be noted that the propellers are marked according 

to the brushless motor for which they are intended to be 

used. The propellers with the silver hub are meant to be 

attached to the corresponding brushless motor (which is 

also marked with silver). To further prevent any confusion 

or improper installation, the diameter of the silver hub and 

black hub are slightly different. This will prevent inadvertently 

attaching the incorrect propeller to a mismatched brushless 

motor.

• Simply put, silver to silver and black to black.

•  Additionally, the propellers are self-tightening. When 

attaching them to the appropriate motor, please ensure that 

they are firmly tightened. However, it is not necessary (nor 

recommended) to over-tighten the propellers.

Attaching the Propellers

•  As previously noted, 

it is imperative to 

place the correct 

propeller on the 

correct motor. There 

are two iterations of 

the propellers and 

two iterations of the 

motors. Please match 

them accordingly.

•  Place the propeller on the motor shaft, grasp the motor 

firmly, and turn in the proper direction as indicated on the top 

of the propeller. 

Removing the Propellers

•  Removing the Xplorer propellers is very simple and quick. 

Grasp the motor and spin the propeller in the direction 

as indicated on the top of the propeller. Ensure that you 

are spinning the propeller in the unlock direction and not 

tightening it further.   

Important Notes: 

•  Use only the propellers manufactured by Xiro that are 

designated for use with the Xplorer.

• DO NOT use broken or otherwise damaged propellers.

•  Always use extreme care when attaching or removing 

propellers.

•  Ensure that the Xplorer is away from all person and objects 

when preparing for flight and during the flight itself.

•  It is a good practice to not install the flight battery until 

the propellers, gimbal, etc. have all been installed.
