Charging the Battery
IRIS-M includes three rechargeable lithium polymer (LiPo) batteries. Store
the batteries at half charge then charge fully before flying.
Batteries ship at half charge, so please charge before your first flight.
Each full battery provides up to 10 minutes of flight time.*
Connect charger to the
power adapter cable and
a wall outlet.
Connect the red cable to the
+ port and the black cable
to the - port.
Set the charger to
LiPo and 3A.
Connect the white
connector to the 3S port.
Join the two yellow
connectors together.

Battery Safety
Secure battery inside the guard bag
while charging. Charge until the status
indicator displays green.
Charging Complete
4
Protect the batteries from extreme heat, extreme cold, puncturing,
and flammable surfaces. Always charge the batteries in the guard
bag.
Charge the batteries using the designated LiPo balance charger
only. Always monitor the battery while charging.
Flying with a low battery is a safety risk and can render the batteries
unusable. Always discontinue use when you receive a low battery
notification, and always fly with a fully charged battery.
Inspect the battery for damage before takeo and after landing.
If you observe any swelling of the package or the battery ceases
to function, do not use the battery. Locate your local battery
recycling center to dispose of the battery. In the US and Canada,
visit call2recycle.org to find a location. Do not dispose of the
battery in the trash.
*Flight time varies with payload, wind conditions, elevation,
temperature, humidity, flying style, and pilot skill. See the Flight
Checklist for instructions on managing battery levels during flight.

IRIS-M uses four propellers: two with black nuts and two with silver
nuts. Attach the propellers with black nuts to the motors with black tops
and the propellers with silver nuts to the motors with silver tops.
Attaching Propellers
For propellers with black nuts:
Spin clockwise to attach.
Spin counterclockwise
to remove.
For propellers with silver nuts:
Spin counterclockwise
to attach.
Spin clockwise to
remove.
Each propeller has locking and unlocking direction symbols. To attach, spin
the propeller in the direction of the locking symbol. The propellers will
automatically tighten onto the motors before takeoff.
To remove, hold the motor in place with
the propeller tool, and spin the propeller
in the direction of the unlocking symbol.

Power Management
Environmental conditions, payload, and flying style can
affect power consumption. Use the DroneDeploy flight
data display to monitor the battery voltage during flight.
If the battery reaches 25%, IRIS-M lands automatically at
the current position, indicated by a blinking yellow status
LED and a quick repeating tone. If IRIS-M reaches the
low battery limit during a mission, it returns to the launch
point before landing.
Injury Prevention
IRIS-M has powerful motors and high-speed propellers. Never
place your hands near propellers while IRIS-M is armed or the
safety button displays solid red. Always press the safety button
until it displays blinking red before handling the copter. Always
follow the preflight and postflight steps in the order described
in this manual, and remain attentive at all times while flying.
Environmental Awareness
Don’t fly in low light, high winds, rain, or other conditions that might impede
visibility. Before you fly, assess the features of your flying area. Determine
the boundaries of the safe flying area, and be prepared to recover the copter
manually if it goes outside this area. Be aware of any risks at your location,
including bodies of water, structures, trees, etc. Designate a few areas as safety
zones where you can safely land the copter in case of an unsafe situation.
Location
Always fly in an open area away from
people and buildings; do not attempt to
fly indoors or in a confined space. Do not
fly over people, near airports, or in any
situation that could pose a hazard to those
around you. Always fly within your line
of sight and in compliance with local
regulations. IRIS-M does not avoid
obstacles on its own. As the operator,
it is your job to recognize and avoid
obstructions while flying.
