The rubber's lifetime depends on the conditions under which it has been used, for
example, external temperature, exposure to UV light and the number of flights.
For this reason, although we recommend making a habit of checking the rubber
bands regularly, we also recommend changing them every 6 months even if there
are no apparent cracks.

You should also check the propeller regularly. A propeller in good condition still
has its original overall shape. Pay special attention to the tip where wear is most
common. If any part of the propeller appears worn down, replace it.
11.17 Repairing the eBee X
Small repairs of cracks in the airframe can be done using contact glue such as
UHU® POR glue. Take care to use only contact glues that are specifically designed
for Expanded Polypropylene (EPP). If you have doubts about the extent of the
damage, always contact a certified eBee X reseller to verify if the damage can
be easily repaired by yourself or if you need to send your drone in for repair to
senseFly.
Caution: Never fly your eBee X if it has cracks in it.
The eBee X' advanced materials and construction mean that it has very few user-
serviceable parts.
• Only carry out the basic repairs described in this user manual.
• Do not try and disassemble the drone beyond the procedures described in
this manual.
• Do not try and repair carbon fibre parts, for example, the wing struts.
