Always power off the aircraft before touching the propellers. Be aware of the sharp edges of the propellers when mounting or removing the propellers. Wear gloves or take other protective measures when touching the propellers. Whenever necessary, use tools (e.g., wrench, screwdriver, pliers, etc.) to remove or install the

propellers. Ensure the propellers are securely mounted to prevent them from falling off the motors. Do NOT turn on the motors when propellers are mounted and there are other people or animals in

the immediate vicinity. Motors Ensure the motors are securely mounted and rotating smoothly. Do NOT attempt to modify the structure of the motors. Do NOT touch or let your hands or body come in contact with the motors after Áight as they may
