Battery safety
4S
Protect battery from extreme heat, extreme cold, puncturing,
and flammable surfaces. Always transport, charge, and store
battery in the guard bag.
Charge battery using a designated LiPo balance charger only.
Always monitor battery while charging.
Flying with a low battery is a safety risk and can render battery
unusable. Always discontinue use when you receive a low
battery notification, and always fly with a fully charged battery.
Inspect battery for damage before takeo and after landing.
If you observe any swelling of the package or battery ceases
to function, locate your local battery recycling center to dispose
of battery. In the US and Canada, visit call2recycle.org to
find a location. Do not dispose of battery in the trash.
