Flying the eBee X
11.13 Full airframe and sensor inspection
Beyond the general airframe inspection that is performed before every flight²⁰,
senseFly recommends that the operator performs a full airframe and sensor in-
spection ²¹ every 10 flight hours, on removal from extended storage and after any
repair, heavy landing or other unexpected incident. This will give the aircraft a
safety rate comparable to manned aircraft and keep the eBee X in good operating
condition.
Caution: The autopilot, sensors and actuators within the Central
Body of the eBee X are specially calibrated and should only be mod-
ified by senseFly or a certified eBee X reseller. Opening the Central
Body of the eBee X will void the warranty.
Caution: The propeller on the eBee X spins at high speeds and can
cause deep cuts if it comes into contact with exposed skin. Always
wear gloves and safety glasses when any work is done requiring the
battery to be connected to the drone.
Carry out this full inspection with the wings and a propeller attached.
