Make sure people around you have been briefed about safety accordingly. WARNING High-speed spinning propeller WARNING Loud noise WARNING Bright light Flashing Light WARNING Hot surfaces MANDATORY Read the original instructions MANDATORY Wear hear protection MANDATORY Wear eye protection MANDATORY Wear head protection MANDATORY Have protective gloves in vicinity 1. Everyone surrounding the operation, including the pilot, must wear eye, ear, and head protection. They must have protective gloves in the vicinity . They should not wear jewelry, loose clothing, or loose/long hair. 1 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Apart from the spotter or the inspector, no one should talk to or otherwise distract the pilot while the pilot is operating the drone. Avoid touching the drone while the propellers are spinning. If touching the drone while it is in ight is essential to operations, make sure that the drone is stable and touch only the protective cage with your hands wide open and your ngers straight to prevent any of them from entering the cage. Always wear protective gloves when doing this. Do not y close to, or directly above, people. Do not look directly into the LEDs, as doing so may lead to eye injuries. In case of an accident, do not try to catch the falling drone. Your safety is more important than the drone. The area around the pilot, as well as the takeoff and landing area, should be free from people and obstacles. 1 A risk assessment should be made to state additional protection (e.g. respiratory protection in dusty environments) ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS Page 7 of 20 ELIOS 3 3 ELIOS 3 System specications 1.2 General Guidelines 1. The pilot MUST be a Flyability Certied ELIOS 3 Pilot and, if required by local laws, hold other drone pilot licenses or any other certication necessary to pilot ELIOS 3. 2. 3. 4. 5. A damaged propeller may break in ight, causing the drone to crash. Pieces of the broken blade can become dangerous projectiles. Replace a propeller if it is broken, cracked, bent, or damaged in any way. Operators and surrounding personnel MUST wear safety glasses. A too large gap between the propeller tip and the duct will decrease efciency and reduce ight time. Replace propellers when the tips are worn down to an extent where the white markings are no longer visible and in any case when there is visible damage or when they have been used for 10 ight hours. Debris can be ejected at high velocity when it collides with the propellers. Operators and surrounding personnel MUST wear safety glasses. The pilot should always act according to his or her best judgment, focusing on the safety of the people and the environment in which she or he is ying. The pilot MUST brief all personnel attending or surrounding the ight about safety. While piloting, the pilot should not move, as doing so may cause injuries due to slipping, tripping, or falling. 6. DO NOT y over or near people or over or near moving vehicles. When operating outdoors, always give way to other aircraft and watch out for low ying helicopters. 7. 8. 9. Operating the ELIOS 3 system for extended periods of time can be stressful, tiring, and cause muscular fatigue. The controller is equipped with a hook that can connect to a strap. Use the provided controller strap to relieve your muscles. Using the strap will also help the pilot avoid dropping or damaging the ground control station. Using the Flashing LED function on ELIOS 3 can be tiring and stressful to the pilot and surrounding personnel. It may in some cases trigger a seizure in people suffering from epilepsy. The motors contain magnets that can disrupt the proper functioning of medical devices or disturb certain electronic devices located nearby. 10. DO NOT use ELIOS 3 under the inuence of alcohol, drugs, or any substances that may 11. 12. 13. impair cognitive abilities. A proper risk assessment MUST be performed before every ight. The pilot MUST always go through the checklists before, during, and after each ight. ELIOS 3, like any remotely piloted aircraft system, must be operated according to the laws of the country and airspace in which it is used. It is the sole responsibility of the pilot to be informed of the applicable restrictions concerning ight near people, buildings, BVLOS
(Beyond Visual Line of Sight) operations, or any other special types of operations that may be prohibited or limited by law. 14. Use only parts provided by Flyability, genuine Flyability parts, or parts certied by Flyability. Using other devices or parts in combination with ELIOS 3 (e.g., batteries, propellers, etc.) or performing unauthorized modications may result in the system malfunctioning and might compromise safety and reliability. 15. Avoid any manual operations inside the drones cage while the battery is plugged in, except for turning on and off the aircraft. 16. DO NOT wear jewelry, loose clothing, or loose/long hair when operating ELIOS 3 or while in its vicinity. 17. Under no circumstance should objects, ngers, or any type of body part enter the drones protective cage while it is armed (i.e., when the propellers are spinning), since doing so may result in severe personal injuries and damage to the drone. ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS Page 8 of 20 ELIOS 3 3 ELIOS 3 System specications 18. DO NOT perform the arming sequence to arm the drone (i.e., making the propellers spin) during the removal or insertion of the battery, or while objects, ngers, or any other body parts are inside the protective cage. 19. Avoid touching the drone while the propellers are spinning. If touching the drone while it is in ight is essential to operations, make sure that it is stable and touch only the protective cage with your hands wide open and your ngers straight to prevent any of them from entering the cage. Always wear protective gloves when doing this. 20. Propellers have sharp edges. For this reason, protective gloves MUST be worn when changing a propeller. 21. If the drone is unresponsive due to a malfunction, disarm it and DO NOT insert your hands or ngers into the cage until 1 hour after the incident. Wear protective gloves to disconnect the battery. 22. After a strong impact (more than 1m free fall), do not touch the drone as it may explode or catch re. If the aircraft is in an enclosed place, or near to an explosive or ammable environment, you may carefully place it in a properly ventilated area. The aircraft must remain under supervision for at least 1 hour following a strong impact. A risk assessment should be performed prior to attempting to use the drone again. 23. It is recommended to use only transport cases approved by Flyability to transport the ELIOS 3.. 24. Carefully read the Battery Safety Guidelines and the User Manual before using the ELIOS 3 system. 25. During a ight, parts of the aircraft can become very hot. Wait 3 minutes after disarming the drone for these parts to cool down and access the battery. If time is a constraint, you may use protective gloves to change the battery during the cooling period. 26. After a ight, wait 3 minutes before touching the following parts:
a. Motors b. c. Lighting panels Lidar assembly, if mounted ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS Page 9 of 20 ELIOS 3 3 ELIOS 3 System specications 1.3 Environmental Awareness Flight in unsafe environmental conditions might lead to accidents or damage to the equipment 1. 2. 3. Do not y close to people. ELIOS 3 is not waterproof. Do not y under heavy rain/snow or in very humid environments. Moisture can cause damage to the drones electronics. Store the ELIOS 3 system in a dry environment that is protected from sunlight and kept between 0C and 30C. 4. Mechanical parts may deteriorate more rapidly in dusty, sandy, or corrosive environments. Clean all mechanical parts thoroughly to remove dust after each ight. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. The propellers may blow harmful dust, vapor, or gasses towards you. Cover this topic in your risk assessment, and if necessary, have yourself and surrounding personnel wear eye protection and respiratory protection. The cage protects the drone from impacts, but small objects can penetrate the cage and cause damage to the drone and its propellers or create high velocity projectiles. In ight, avoid protruding objects and/or any falling objects. In case of doubt about whether such precautions are needed, performing a risk assessment is recommended and eye protection MUST be worn. Flying in low air density environments such as in a combination of high altitude, high temperature, and high humidity, will reduce ight time, control authority and collision resilience. Do not y at density altitudes over 5000m. The wind may have severe effects on ELIOS 3. With the wind higher than 5m/s when ying in ASSIST mode, Flyability cannot guarantee ELIOS 3s ability to hold its position without pilot input on the sticks . With the wind above 7m/s, Flyability cannot guarantee the stability or ying capability of ELIOS 3. Very cold temperatures lead to reduced ight times. Do not y in temperatures below 0C. If you need to y in an environment below 10C, heat the batteries to 25C prior to the ight and observe the safety practices while ying that are described in the Battery Safety Guidelines. 10. Hot temperaturesabove 40Cwill interfere with battery performance. The pilot should observe the safe practices regarding the battery described in the Battery Safety Guidelines. 11. Motor performance is automatically reduced to avoid overheating. For this reason, the collision tolerance of the drone cannot be guaranteed above 50C. Flyability cannot guarantee the drones ight capability and stability if not used in temperatures between 0C to 50C. 12. 13. The output power of the lighting system will automatically be reduced in high temperature environments. The electronics and battery are cooled down by the airow generated by the propellers. Leaving the drone on without ying will eventually make the electronics and sensors overheat and shutdown. 14. After a ight in an environment above 40C, use gloves for changing the battery or wait for at least 10 minutes for the drone to cool down in a zone where the temperature is below 30C. 15. It is not recommended to operate the aircraft close to power lines, power transformers, or other areas with high electromagnetic disturbances since these may cause severe effects on the sensors and transmission system, impacting the aircrafts stability and ying capability. ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS Page 10 of 20 ELIOS 3 3 ELIOS 3 System specications 16. 17. The drone is loud. Wearing ear protection is mandatory when ying in enclosed areas or when the aircraft is operating close to personnel. If you are ying in a conned or enclosed place, avoid being inside this same space while the drone is ying. Do not forget this topic in your risk assessment. 18. Avoid ying in a biohazard environment. If this is unavoidable, avoid ying close to people and have yourself and surrounding personnel wear eye protection and respiratory protection as the propellers may blow contaminated particles to you. Also, wear gloves and appropriate protection while manipulating the drone and its equipment until further decontamination. Do not forget this topic in your risk assessment. 19. ELIOS 3 should not be used in or near explosive or ammable environments. 1.4 Maintenance guidelines To ensure safe and reliable maintenance of your ELIOS 3, observe the following preventive actions:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Change cage elements whenever they are structurally damaged. A damaged propeller may break, and pieces of the broken blade can become dangerous projectiles and reduce the drones reliability. Replace a propeller if it is broken, cracked, bent, or damaged in any way, or when the tip is worn down to beyond the tip marking. Re-torque the propeller nuts with the provided 1.4Nm torque screwdriver every 5 ights. Change the propeller after 10 hours of ight. Change the motor after 50 hours of ight when used in a clean environment. Usage in an environment with high levels of dust will signicantly reduce the motor life time.
