8. Fly Safe

Fly in Open Areas

Avoid flying over or near obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees
or bodies of water.
DO NOT fly near strong electromagnetic sources such as power lines and
base stations as it may affect the onboard compass.

DO NOT use the aircraft in adverse weather conditions such as rain,
snow, fog and wind speeds exceeding 10 m/s or 22 mph.

Stay away from the rotating propellers
and motors.

It’s important to understand basic flight guidelines, for the safety of both you and
those around you. Don't forget to read the Disclaimer and Safety Guidelines.
