Battery Safety
Battery:
• NEVER store the battery fully charged or at.
• If used then bring the voltage up with your charger to the storage level of 15,1V- 15,4V.
• If charged fully and not used you will have to discharge the battery to 15,1V- 15,4V either by ying
the drone or by using the discharge function on the charger, ying even just hovering can achieve
this the fastest.
• At this Voltage, the battery will stay healthy for long periods (15.1 - 15.4V)
• NEVER leave a charging battery unattended, keep watch on the charging process & react to any
potential problems that may occur.
• NEVER charge a hot battery, always let it cool down rst,
• Always use the supplied charger by Gannet
• NEVER exceed a 1C charge Amperage best to charge the battery at 5-5.5A it is slower but safer
• NEVER store LiPo batteries in any location that exceeds 25°C (80° F) (e.g. in a car, garage, or in the sun)
• NEVER let the battery or chargers positive and negative leads touch. is can cause the battery to
short and lead to a FIRE.
• NEVER charge a swollen or ballooned battery (even if swollen upon purchase). Continuing to charge
a battery that has begun to swell will result in a re.
If the battery reaches high tempretures during charging follow these steps:
• STOP the charging process and disconnect battery immediately
• Disconnect battery from the charger immediately.
• Place it in an open non-ammable area.
• Watch it for approx. 30 minutes from a safe distance.
• Follow proper procedure to dispose of battery
• ALWAYS inspect the battery to make sure there are no signs of damage, deformity, or swelling before
charging. If there are, STOP charging the battery and follow the proper procedure to dispose of
the battery.
• ALWAYS charge batteries in a reproof container and away from combustible material. Do NOT
charge on surfaces that can catch re – this includes wood, cloth, carpet, or in the application’s device.
• ALWAYS store LiPo batteries in cool, dry places between 5-25°C (40-80° F)
If the battery reaches high tempretures aer a crash follow these steps:
• Disconnect battery immediately from the drone
• Place it in an open non-ammable area.
• Watch it for approx. 30 minutes from a safe distance.
• If the battery appears to be stable (no signs of damage or swelling) proceed to put it back into use
with caution.
• Keep LIPO batteries out of reach of children or pets.
• Avoid discharge the battery to below 14,6V rested (14,2V in ight) doing so can cause permanent
battery damage,
• NEVER discharge below 14.2V is sure to cause permanent damage,
• Handle the battery with care, dropping it may cause permanent total damage
