2.5.5.1. General care
• Always handle the gimbal with care. If you need to tilt the camera manually
(when not connected or while the Intel Falcon 8+ UAV is switched off), please
only do so very cautiously. If too much force is applied, the gear wheels of the
servo motors may break.
• Do not lift the payload by the antenna of the Topcon B111 GNSS receiver. This
will permanently damage the connection between the antenna and the camera
mount.
• The camera is powered by the Intel Falcon 8+ UAV battery to save weight. When
you switch the system OFF, always switch the camera OFF first, and wait for 10
seconds to enable the camera to fully power down and store all images and
settings. After doing so, switch OFF the Intel Falcon 8+ UAV. If you switch the
Intel Falcon 8+ UAV OFF too early, you will cut the power supply to the camera
and risk losing data.
• Please keep the airplane mode of the camera switched ON in order to avoid
radio interference from the camera (MENU > Wireless > Airplane Mode > ON).
