INSPECTION OF THE AIRCRAFT
This guide contains the basics for inspection. However, you should keep in mind that the inspection of
the unmanned aircraft is only a small part of flight safety. Always be aware of weather conditions,
airspace, flight restrictions and the area in which the unmanned aircraft will be present. Make sure that
there are no people, land or hazards/objects on the ground in the affected areas that could be
damaged during flight operations.
Maintenance logging is an industry best practice that is required by some jurisdictions to comply with
regulatory requirements.
Always follow the local flight regulations!
FIRMWARE
We recommend that you always install the latest firmware/software on all Yuneec aircraft and related
products.
Failure to update the aircraft, ground station, and camera system may result in flight errors for which
Yuneec cannot be held responsible. For more information, visit www.yuneec.com . At the request of
the user, Yuneec's DataPilot ™ OTA application automatically updates all firmware and software
applications.
