- Do not attempt to touch the motors, until the motors have stopped rotating.
- When taking-off & landing from water, avoid high-speed or abusive landings to avoid
damaging the drone.
- When flying over water, avoid allowing the drone to drop or crash into the water from a high
altitude as this could cause major damage to the drone.
- Don't expose the drone & battery to direct sunlight for sustained periods of time as this can
raise the internal temperature of the drone to well above the operating temperature range.
- If the drone does not appear to be responding to the Remote Controller as usual, switch the
Drone to ATTI flight mode and fly the drone to a safe landing location.
The possible causes for the instability or loss of control of the drone could be:
- The drone has been subjected to unstable GPS signal/s or spurious interference/effects on
the Compass module during flight.
- The calibration of the drone (compass and/accelerometer) was incorrectly carried out.
- Re-calibrate both the compass and accelerometer on the Spry.
- After completing the calibration, arm the drone motors to fly in GPS mode to verify whether
this phenomenon has been eliminated.
- If the abnormality remains the same, please re-locate to another place at least 5KM away
and re-calibrate the Spry. Following the re-calibration, please test the drone again.
- If the problem persists, please contact SwellPro or your local dealer for further
trouble-shooting and solutions.
Steps that can be taken to resolve the issues:
4. Maintenance
- Please make sure to double check the propellers after flight, distorted/damaged props
should be replaced immediately.
- After flying over the sea or other corrosive waters, please wash the outer modules of the
drone with fresh water within 2 hours, especially the motors.
- It's strongly advised to rinse the drone before the salt crystalizes.
- In the event of the Spry not being used for a long time, please store the drone and the
batteries in a dry, and ventilated environment, within a temperature range of 20°C~28°C.
