FIELD MAINTENANCE
& SCHEDULE
Field-replaceable items are parts that can easily be replaced in the field without requiring special expertise or
tools other than those provided in the Field Spares Kit. Repairs, upgrades, or software updates that cannot be
performed in the field are beyond the scope of this manual, and doing so may void conditions and terms of the
warranty.

ROTOR ARM REPLACEMENT
Damaged or worn rotor arms require the entire assembly to be replaced but can easily be done so in the field.
The arms are prewired with the motor installed, and only need to be locked into place and secured with a
single Torx T8 screw per arm. The Torx T8 screwdriver is included in the Field Repair Kit.
Arms are keyed to the appropriate sockets on the airframe so that CW and CCW arms cannot be inadvert-
ently interchanged.
REPLACEMENT
INSTRUCTIONS
Place the drone on its back on a table or workspace where the antenna
can hang o the edge to prevent being damaged.
Remove the single T8 Torx screw on the motor arm using a T8 Torx
screwdriver.
