Proper Management
This unmanned helicopter for industrial applications has been manufactured for the purpose of aerial application of agricultural chemicals, fertilizers, and seeds.
Secure a storage location for the helicopter and its auxiliary devices, to prevent theft and illegal use outside of
its intended purpose, such as criminal acts.
Storage Precautions
To select a storage site, consider factors such as
sources of fire or spark, temperature, humidity,
dust, theft, and the presence of any stacked loads
in the area.
We recommend that you provide a dedicated cabinet for storing the auxiliary devices.
In addition to protecting the helicopter from damage
and theft, or the auxiliary devices from loss, these
measures will facilitate the monitoring of their maintenance conditions and ensure efficient preparation
for the next flight.
• Store the helicopter, rotors, and transmitters in
separate, lockable locations so that they will not
be stolen or subject to other criminal acts.
• If the helicopter is stolen, immediately file a theft
report with your local police department, followed
by a report to your dealer.
8-1
Proper Management
Daily storage procedure
1 Perform post-flight inspections (Refer to pages
7-3 to 7-19) and record the results in the flight
log.
2 Clean the helicopter. (Refer to page 6-1.)
3 Place the cover (sold separately) on the helicopter, and store it indoors, in an area that is not
damp.
4 Clean the flight transmitter and remove its battery. (Refer to page 7-2.)
Long-term storage procedure
If the helicopter will not be operated for a few
months, follow the storage procedure given below
in preparation for the subsequent operation.
1 Perform a post-flight inspection (Refer to pages
7-3 to 7-19) and record the results in the flight
log.
2 Clean the helicopter. (Refer to page 6-1.)
3 Remove the battery from the helicopter and
charge it with a dedicated charger (sold separately) (Refer to page 7-1.).
Store the charged battery in a cool, dark area,
and recharge it every 3 months.
N OTICE
The proper procedure for removing the battery is to first disconnect the negative terminal, followed by the positive terminal.
Reversing this order can cause a short circuit
in the battery.
4 Fuel must be drained from the fuel tank. Request
this operation to be performed by your dealer.
5 Place the cover (sold separately) on the helicopter, and store it indoors, in an area that is not
damp.
6 Clean the flight transmitter and remove its battery. Store the battery in a cool, dark area.
8-2
Proper Management
Operating the helicopter after long-term storage
TIP
● Have a periodic inspection performed on
the helicopter if you will be operating it
after prolonged storage of 1 year or more.
● If a deletion of registration was filed, apply
for a renewal registration.
● Contact your dealer for details.
To operate the helicopter after storing it for a few
months, perform the following preparations:
1 Install fully charged batteries in the helicopter
and the flight transmitter, after making sure the
main switch on the helicopter is turned OFF.
N OTICE
● Do not interchange the cables to the positive and negative terminals of the battery,
as it can cause a fire or malfunction.
● The proper procedure for connecting the
battery is to first connect the positive terminal, followed by the negative terminal.
Reversing this order can cause a short circuit in the battery.
2 Pour fresh fuel in the fuel tank. (Refer to page 44.)
N OTICE
Never use old leftover fuel.
This could cause the engine to start or operate poorly.
8-3
Positive terminal side
Connect the negative
terminal afterward.
Proper Management
3 Perform pre-flight inspections. (Refer to pages 73 to 7-19.)
4 Start the engine.
TIP
If the engine does not start within 5 seconds
after the starter switch is pressed, allow the
starter to rest for about 10 seconds. This is
done to allow the battery voltage to recover.
Then, press the starter switch again.
OK
OK
Repeat the cycle of operating the starter motor for 5
seconds and waiting 10 seconds, a few times. This
will allow the fuel to reach the carburetor and the
engine to start.

Proper Management
Other Types of Management
Transfer of product
When transferring the product to a third party, inform your dealer of it.

Inspection Types and Descriptions
The prescribed types of inspections are described
below.
• Pre-flight and post-flight inspections are to be
performed by the operator.
• For the 30-hour free inspection and yearly periodic inspection, contact your dealer or an authorized service facility for Yamaha unmanned
helicopters for industrial applications.
W ARNING
For the 30-hour free inspection, periodic
inspection, or general repair, contact your
dealer or an authorized service facility for
Yamaha unmanned helicopters for industrial
applications. Having the helicopter inspected
or serviced by a person who is not authorized to service unmanned helicopters can
lead to a helicopter malfunction or accident.
TIP
● Do not fly or perform an aerial application
without having a yearly periodic inspection performed.
● Failure to perform the inspections
described below invalidates your product
warranty, so be sure to have them performed.
A Yamaha-authorized service facility for unmanned
helicopters for industrial applications is a service
facility staffed by certified service technicians for
Yamaha industrial unmanned helicopters and
equipped with the prescribed service equipment.
Pre-flight inspection

Warning Lamp Indications
Warning lamp illuminates or flashes
Main Cause
Identifiable through the warning lamp operation pattern.
User Action
Immediately stop the flight and take appropriate
actions in accordance with the contents of “Various
Types of Warning (Warning, Indication) and Actions”.
The warning lamp (regular flashing of red lamp) remains lit even
after refueling
Main Cause

the helicopter can be flown under postural control.
When speed control is used, the helicopter moves arbitrarily
10-8
Main Cause
User Action
Proper GPS radio signals are not being received due to a
poor location of the GPS satellites or the presence of
obstacles.
