• Winglets: These structures add aerodynamic stability to the drone while it
is in flight.
• Ailerons: Used to control the eBee RTK while in flight.
• Servo connection mechanism: The ailerons are connected to the servo-
motors within the central body of the drone through this connection mech-
anism.
• Propeller: Used to generate thrust while it is in flight.
Caution: When attached to the motor the propeller spins at high
speeds and can be potentially dangerous if it comes into contact with
exposed skin. Be sure to always keep your hands clear of the propeller
when the battery is attached to the eBee RTK.
• Battery compartment: The eBee RTK is powered by a LiPo (Lithium Poly-
mer) battery stored within the battery compartment.
Caution: Proper care of your battery is essential. Please read section
'Proper battery care' on page 154 before using your drone for the first
time.
• GNSS/RTK Antenna: The advanced GNSS antenna, capable of capturing
several GNSS signals, is used for navigation and to increase geo-tagging
precision.
• Camera compartment: The eBee RTK features a built-in camera for taking
aerial images stored within the camera compartment.
• Data Link Antenna: Used by the drone to communicate with the eMotion
software through the USB ground modem.
• Pitot probe: This is the sensor used by the eBee RTK to detect airspeed,
wind and altitude. It must be kept clean and clear of obstructions to func-
tion properly.
