What should I do if my drone gets caught in the rain?

Land as soon as it’s safe to do so. Then:

• Power off the drone.

• Remove the battery.

• Dry the exterior with a microfibre cloth.

• Leave the drone to air-dry fully at room temperature.

• Avoid powering it back on until you’re confident it’s completely dry.

• If you see warnings (gimbal errors, sensor faults) after drying, consider a professional inspection before your next flight.
