• PROPELLER HAZARD: The 4DF8 utilizes high-torque brushless motors. Spinning propellers can cause severe lacerations. Always ensure the unit is disarmed before handling.
• BATTERY INTEGRITY: Only use authorized 4DFX Lithium-Polymer (LiPo) power cells. Damaged or swelling batteries pose a fire risk. Do not charge unattended.
• GPS LOCK: Do not attempt takeoff until a minimum of 8 satellite locks have been acquired. Flight without GPS lock engages "Atti-Mode," which disables automated position holding and drift correction.
• RESTRICTED ZONES: The 4DF8 includes built-in No-Fly Zone (NFZ) geofencing. The unit will refuse to arm within 5 miles of active airports, military installations, or government facilities. Tampering with the NFZ firmware is a federal offense.
