* Denotes Impact of Safety of Flight
COLD WEATHER OPERATIONS
When operating in low temperatures (32 °F (0 °C) or
lower), battery packs that have been exposed to low
temperatures for more than one hour must be pre-
heated on the charger before flight.
Failure to pre-heat the battery pack before flight could
reduce overall battery performance and affecting
overall flight time, up to 28%.
When the cold battery pack is placed on the charger,
the 5-LED bar graph will indicate that the thermal
blanket is activated by showing a green LED light
pattern starting in the middle moving outwards. When
this animation stops and the LED indicates the solid
percentage of charge, it can be used for operations.
The amount of time this takes will vary upon the
starting temperature of the battery pack.
HOT WEATHER OPERATIONS
During extreme hot weather conditions, it is best to
keep the system and all components out of direct
sunlight prior to flight. Avoid storing battery packs in
hot vehicles to not exceed the recommended
temperature limit of 113 °F (45 °C). If overheated,
lithium-ion batteries such as the Teal Performance
Battery Pack may become unstable, overheat, damage
cells, and potentially catch on fire.
