Release time:

2026-06-03

Daily maintenance of quadcopters covers propellers, motors, batteries and remote controllers. Clean dust and sundries on arms and propellers after every flight. Replace cracked or bent propellers to prevent flight crash. Clear hair wrapped around motor shafts and apply special lubricant properly to avoid stuck rotation. Cool down lithium batteries before storage after flight. Never store fully charged batteries long-term; keep about 40% power for long idle storage to avoid overcharge and overdischarge. Check wiring and plugs, fix loose soldering and wipe moisture after flight in humid weather to prevent short circuit. Protect gyroscopes and gimbal from impact and store in dry dark place with batteries removed for long-time storage. Avoid flying on rainy and sandy days to reduce component corrosion. Proper maintenance prolongs service life and ensures stable flight.
