Safety Instructions
Eye Protection
As with any system designed to launch a mass at high velocity, precautions shall be taken to prevent potential injury. Users should wear eye protection.
Never point the Parachute Pod™ towards anyone or anything
While the PRS-M30 includes features to prevent unintentional deployments, users shall be aware that the Parachute Pod™ is launched vertically. It is recommended that the operator maintains a clear area of at least five (5) meters (16 feet) after the system has been powered.
Approaching the Drone After Landing
Verify that the PSDK text window displays the "DISARMED" message before approaching the drone. Then hide the PSDK menu to avoid inadvertently pressing the MTD button before approaching the Drone after a landing or in the event of an aborted takeoff.
Ensure PRS-M30 is OFF before moving it
Do not pick up the PRS-M30 when it is powered on and connected to the drone as the sensors may interpret the movements as an in-flight failure. Power off the drone and PRS before moving the drone. See the "Calibration Processes" section for instructions on handling the drone for calibration.
Error Status
The system should not be used unless it is indicated that no errors are present. The system will not arm itself nor deploy in a failure scenario unless it has initialized successfully.
Parachute Repacking
Only parachutes packed by AVSS are compliant. The Parachute shall be repacked or replaced every twelve (12) months only by AVSS. You will no longer be compliant and will void the warranty if you attempt to repack the Parachute.
Normal Mode and Flight Mode Changes
The ATS is designed to automatically detect abnormal flight behaviors. Flying in a controlled manner and avoiding erratic maneuvers ensures that the PRS-M30 can more accurately distinguish between pilot commands and loss of control. Do not change the flight mode mid-flight as the DJI M30/T can have a hard/abrupt braking maneuver that can exceed the maximum "25°-degree pitch angle”, as per DJI.
Rules and Regulations
Pilots shall follow the rules and regulations put in place by civil aviation or government bodies in their operating regions.
Energetic Charge Warning
The PRS-M30 utilizes an automotive pyrotechnic as the means of deployment. These charges are similar to that in automobile airbag and seat belt systems. Caution should always be observed around the system. Ensure the System is never pointing towards someone. Note, throughout this document, the pyrotechnic charge is referenced as an "Energetic Charge".
