If you want to extend the lifespan of your drone and ensure flight safety, preventative maintenance is essential.
1. Check the battery regularly.
Keep batteries properly charged and avoid storing them fully discharged or fully charged for extended periods.
2. Inspection before each flight
Before takeoff, check that the propellers, engines, and sensors are in perfect working order. Minor damage can compromise flight safety.
3. Update the firmware.
Keeping your software up-to-date ensures your drone is operating at peak performance and safety.
4. Proper cleaning and storage
After each flight, clean the lenses, motors, and body of the drone to remove dust and dirt, then store it in a dry and protected place.
5. Calibration test
Periodically calibrate the drone's gyroscope and compass to avoid stability issues during flights.
