  12. The pilot MUST always go through the checklists before, during and after each flight.
  13. ELIOS 2, like any remotely piloted aircraft system, must be operated per the laws of the coun-try it is used in. It is the sole responsibility of the pilot to be informed of the applicable re-strictions. If you are flying in a public environment or around people, make sure to respect the rules of flight in line of sight.
  14. Use only provided Flyability parts, genuine Flyability parts, or parts certified by Flyability. Us-ing other devices or parts in combination with ELIOS 2 (e.g., batteries, propellers, etc.) or per-forming unauthorized modifications may result in the system malfunctioning and/or com-promise safety
  15. It is strongly recommended to avoid any operation inside the aircraft’s cage when the battery is plugged in, except turning off the aircraft (unplugging the battery).
  16. DO NOT wear jewelry, loose clothing or long hair when operating ELIOS 2 or being in its vi-cinity
  17. Under no circumstances should objects, fingers or any other body parts enter the aircraft’s protective cage while the drone is armed (i.e., when the propellers are spinning). It may result in severe injuries for the person and damage the aircraft.
  18. DO NOT perform the arming sequence or arm the aircraft (i.e., make the propellers spin) be-fore and during the removal or insertion of the battery or if objects, fingers or any other body parts are inside the protective cage.
  19. When the propellers are spinning, the aircraft must not be touched. If not applicable, make sure the aircraft is stable, touch only the aircraft’s protective cage with your hands wide open and your fingers straight to prevent any of them from entering the cage. You must wear protective gloves to touch the aircraft if the propellers are spinning.
  20. Propellers have sharp edges; protective gloves MUST be worn while changing a propeller.
  21. If the aircraft is unresponsive due to malfunction, perform the disarming sequence and DO NOT try to insert your hand or fingers into the cage until 1 hour after the incident. Wear pro-tective gloves to disconnect the battery.
  22. After a strong crash (i.e. more than lm free fall), do not touch the aircraft as it may explode or catch fire. If the aircraft is in an enclosed place, or near to an explosive or flammable environ-ment, you may carefully place it in a properly ventilated area. The aircraft must remain under supervision. A risk assessment should be performed prior to taking any actions.
  23. It is recommended to use only transport cases approved by Flyability.

1 .3 Environmental Awareness
Always fly withi n the listed conditions. It will reduce incident and damage to the aircraft.

  1. Do not fly close to people.

  2. ELIOS 2 is not waterproof. Do not fly under heavy rain/snow or in humid environments. Mois-ture can seriously damage the electronics of ELIOS 2.

  3. Store the ELIOS 2 system in a dry environment between 0°C and 30°C protected from sun-light.

  4. Avoid flying in dusty or sandy environments or environments subject to vapor or gas. If not applicable, avoid flying close to people. Have yourself and surrounding personnel wear eye protection and respiratory protection as the propulsion system may blow dust, vapor or gas towards you or other personnel. Do not forget this topic in your risk assessment.
    Note that mechanical parts may deteriorate more rapidly in dusty or sandy environments.

  5. Even if the cage protects the aircraft, small objects can penetrate the cage and damage the aircraft. Be sure while flying that protruding objects and/or any falling objects do not go through the cage as they might break the propellers, damage the aircraft, or create high-velocity projectiles. In case of doubt, performing a risk assessment is recommended and eye protection MUST be worn.

  6. Flying in low-density atmospheres (such as at high altitudes above sea level) might reduce flight time and the stability of the aircraft.

  7. The wind has severe effects on ELIOS 2. If the wind is higher than 3m/s, it should be piloted in Sport mode. In this mode and/or with the wind higher than 3m/s, Flyability cannot guar-antee ELIOS 2’s ability to sustain a collision. With the wind above Sm/s, Flyability cannot guar-antee the stability or flying capability of ELIOS 2.

  8. Very cold temperatures lead to reduced flight times. Do not fly in temperatures below 0°C. If you need to fly within a temperature below 10°C, heat the batteries prior to use with a battery warmer bag and observe safe practices as described in the Battery Safety Guidelines.

  9. Hot temperatures – above 40°C – will interfere with the battery performances. The pilot should observe the safe practices regarding the battery described in the Battery Safety Guidelines. Also, Flyability cannot guarantee the collision sustainability of the aircraft above 40°C. The Pilot assist performance may diminish. The maximum power of the lighting system will reduce for the system safety. The aircraft should not be left switched on without propel-lers spinning in temperature above 40°C, the electronics need to be cooled down by the air-flow generated by the propulsion system. In such temperatures, use gloves for changing the battery or wait for at least 10 minutes for the drone to cool down in a zone where the tem-perature is below 30°C. Pay extra attention to not touch the lighting system heatsinks or the motors during the cooldown period.

  10. Flyability cannot guarantee the aircraft flight capability and stability if not used in tempera-tures from 0°C to 50°C.

  11. It is not recommended to operate the aircraft close to power lines, power transformers or other areas with high electromagnetic disturbances as these may cause severe effects on the sensors and transmission system, impacting the aircraft’s stability and flying capability.

  12. The aircraft propulsion system makes loud noises. Wearing ear protection is mandatory when flying in enclosed areas or when the aircraft is operating close to personnel.

  13. If you are flying in a confined or enclosed place, avoid being inside this environment with the aircraft flying. Do not forget this topic in your risk assessment.

  14. Avoid flying in a biohazard environment. If not applicable, avoid flying close to people and have yourself and surrounding personnel wear eye protection and respiratory protection as the propulsion system may blow contaminated particles to you. Also, wear gloves and appro-priate protection while manipulating the aircraft and its equipment until further decontam-ination. Do not forget this topic in your risk assessment.

  15. ELIOS 2 should not be used in or near explosive or flammable environments.

1.4 Maintenance guidelines
