Maintenance
Mechanical maintenance UAV
Standard Maintenance: Address every 10 to 20 flight hours or 30 to 50 flights, whichever comes first, depending on operational conditions.
Detailed Inspections: Perform every 50 to 100 flight hours or 100 to 200 flights, whichever comes first, depending on operational conditions.
Full Maintenance: Required after 500 flight hours
After Crash Inspection
Required after low to semi-intensity crashes, where only propellers and legs were broken.
Standard Maintenance
Propellers
Check propellers for structural damage. If damaged, replace them.
Check four motor screws on the propellers that mount them to the motor. Tighten if needed.
Check two screws securing the foldable propellers. The propellers should be unfoldable with low force. Adjust screws as necessary.
Arm Lock-in Mechanism
Inspect the arm lock-in mechanism.
Check for dirt blocking the full lock-in.
360° Camera Connector
Check the 360° camera connector. If the pins are damaged, straighten them.
Legs and Mounts
Check the legs. If they fit too tightly or too loosely, try to replace them between mounts or clean the metal ball bearing. Replace if damaged.
Overall UAV Inspection
Inspect the entire UAV for structural damage.
Tightening of the antenna connectors on the UAV
Ensure the antenna connectors are not loose. If they are, use pliers to hold the nut and tighten it.
Clean all lenses of the sensor system
Clean all ventilation holes
Detailed Maintenance
Review all items from the standard maintenance checklist.
Inspect the bearings of the motors. Listen for unusual sounds and vibrations; check for dirt or similar issues if detected.
Examine the payload gimbal for erratic movement during its initialization phase.
The UAV backpacks include all the necessary tools for disassembling, tightening, and loosening screws. Tool for tightening antenna connectors is missing.
Full Maintenance
After this interval, the motors are expected to be worn out and need to be replaced. The same applies to other moving parts of the system. Please contact support for the next steps.
After crash inspection
Assess whether the crash is fatal or not. Damage to propellers or landing legs may be repairable on the spot. The gimbal can be swapped between UAVs within the system. Damage to foldable arms might be repairable; please contact support for further instructions.
Carry out a full and detailed maintenance procedure.
Please note: In the event of a crash, full operational capability of the system cannot be guaranteed.
