2. Status LED/Pitot probe: The pitot probe is the sensor used by the eBee X
to calculate airspeed, wind and altitude. It must be kept clean and clear
of obstructions to function properly. A coloured LED, housed underneath,
lights up the entire semi-transparent probe in different colours, indicating
the drone's status.
3. Battery compartment: The eBee X is powered by a LiHV (High Voltage
Lithium Polymer) battery stored within the battery compartment.
Caution: Safe charging and proper care of your battery are essen-
tial. Please read Battery care and safety on page 85 before using your
drone for the first time.

actuators and communications hardware on-board the drone.
6. Servo connection mechanism: The ailerons are connected to the servo-
motors within the central body of the drone through this connection mech-
anism.
