Equipment
Make sure you have downloaded the latest version of FreeFlight 6 and that both your
Parrot Skycontroller 3 and your Thermal have been updated with the latest
versions of firmware.
For the ultimate Thermal experience, make sure you have the right USB-A
cable to connect your Parrot Skycontroller 3 and your device.
Make sure Thermal is fitted with a microSD card with enough free memory
space.
Make sure all four foldable arms of Thermal are unfolded.
Make sure its propellers are clean, intact and unobstructed.
Make sure both Thermal’s and Parrot Skycontroller 3’s batteries are fully
charged.
Make sure Thermal’s battery is securely installed on the drone’s body.
Make sure the lens cap has been removed from Thermal’s gimbal.
Make sure Thermal’s lenses are clean – if you need to clean them, hold the
gimbal between two fingers so that you do not pressure its mechanism when you
clean the lenses, and gently wipe the lenses with a microfiber cloth.
Regulations
Make sure the use of Thermal is allowed where you are intending to fly.
Check for potential restrictions regarding the use of Wi-Fi frequencies in the area
where you are intending to fly.
Flight conditions
Check that your flying zone is safe and clear.
Do not fly Thermal at night.
Do not fly Thermal over urban areas or over restricted airspaces such as
airports, train stations, power plants, national reserves, and so on.
Check the weather: do not fly Thermal in the rain, fog, snow, or in a wind
exceeding 14 meters per second or 50 km/h.
Due to the operating mode of its vertical camera and ultrasound sensor, Parrot
recommends you do not fly Thermal over water and other reflective surfaces
(mirrors, glass, and so on).
