Emergency Procedures
General Information
This chapter introduces how to handle the aircraft or remote controller if one of the following
emergencies occurs.
Engine Failure
If one or more motors fail during flight, the aircraft will calculate the remaining propulsion
according to factors such as the status of the propulsion system, aircraft weight, and flight
environment. Two possible scenarios may occur:
1. Remaining propulsion is sufficient: the aircraft will continue to fly in a stable condition with
remaining propulsion.
2. Remaining propulsion is insufficient: the aircraft will spin and perform a controlled descent.
Afterward, it is recommended that users land the aircraft manually and check and repair the
aircraft immediately.
Fire
A prompt will appear in the app and the flight controller will reduce the power of the aircraft
when the flight battery temperature is too high. The battery will be locked for future use if it
exceeds the temperature threshold during flight and cannot be used again after landing.
Follow the instructions below if the flight battery catches fire.
1. If the battery catches fire when the battery is being charged using a battery station or
generator, make sure personal safety is guaranteed, power off the battery station or
generator immediately, and disconnect the battery from the charging device. If the battery
catches fire when the battery is in the aircraft, make sure personal safety is guaranteed and
disconnect the battery from the aircraft immediately.
2. Transfer the flammable materials surrounding the battery to a safe distance of more than 5
m away.
3. If the fire is small, use materials such as large amount of sand to cover the location of
the fire and pour cold water to cool the battery until there is no longer any smoke being
produced. With the help of fire-resistant gloves or other protective tools that allow users to
avoid direct contact with the battery, move the battery to a container with enough water to
fully immerse the battery and add an appropriate amount of salt to help fully discharge the
battery. Leave the container in a cool place for more than 72 hours and take out the battery
and discard it.
4. If the fire is large, double check that there are no flammable materials surrounding the fire,
extend the safety distance to more than 10 m, and evacuate any people in the surrounding
environment. Wait until the battery burns out and the fire is extinguished in order to avoid
any further accidents.
