Cleaning and care

  1. When cleaning the Firebird™, be careful to avoid getting water or other cleaning solutions on electronic devices, such as those in the avionic bay.

  2. If the Firebird™ gets damaged during flight, it is essential to reinforce and repair the drone according to the maintenance guidelines from the manufacturer.

  3. When the drone is not powered, do not manually rotate any of the aircraft's servo arms. When powered, a gear noise produced by the servo motors is expected.

  4. If irregular pauses or abnormal sounds can be heard during the servo disc rotation, contact the drone manufacturer for the servo's replacement.

  5. To prevent damage to the electric motors, avoid taking off or landing in areas with significant amounts of small gravel. The gravel could potentially enter the motor's interior and damage the coils.
