Cleaning

Ensure the aircraft is powered-off before cleaning. Wipe the outside of the aircraft down with a damp cloth, including the propeller. Use a combination of compressed air and a vacuum to remove dust from hard to reach areas and the inside of the aircraft.

Do not use strong solvents such as acetone or lacquer thinner to clean the aircraft. Doing so may damage the paint or composite structure of the airframe.

Never submerge or pour liquid on the aircraft when cleaning.

Do not blow compressed air directly into the pitot tube. Doing so will rupture the airspeed sensor.

Storage

Store the aircraft at room temperature, low humidity, no dust, no corrosive gas atmosphere, no salt air, and no ultraviolet light exposure. It is recommended to store all equipment in their transport cases. For long term storage, seal all cases with desiccant packets (Type I or II) per MIL-D-3464E.
