RUBIQ POST FLIGHT INSPECTION
Disarm the drone before beginning inspection.
CAUTION
1. Check the LED's for any warning messages, then disconnect the battery. Inspect the LiPo battery for any serious
physical damage, such as punctures or puffiness, which would require replacing the battery.
2. Remove all props and check for any that are bent, nicked or broken. These will need to be replaced before the
next flight.
3. Check that all exposed wires are intact. If any have been nicked, wrap them with electrical tape and order
replacement parts.
4. With the hex driver, confirm that screws are still firmly attached and tighten any that feel loose.
5. Inspect RubiQ's other physical components, including:
• Arms, PDB, Frame and Camera Mount: Look for cracks or other signs of a hard impact.
• Camera, VTX Antenna and VTX: make sure the SMA connection to the antenna is still snug, that the VTX is
still connected and fully seated and with the props still removed, plug in the battery to make sure the FPV
goggles are still receiving video feed from the camera.
• Motors: with the props still removed, slowly spin the motors using the radio controller or the Master Control
in INAV's Motor tab. Use your hand to gently feel for any free spinning motors. There should be no rough
spots or squeals.
6. Charge the batteries and securely re-attach props and batteries before next flight.
