The following section describes the components of the maintenance kit, their installation, and the benefits of using them for optimal performance.
Scheduled Replacement of DeltaQuad Evo maintenance kit components
To maintain the peak performance and reliability of your DeltaQuad Evo, it is crucial to adhere to scheduled maintenance practices, including the replacement of components from the Maintenance Kit. All motorized parts on the Evo use bearings, which contain lubricants to keep them running. Over time, this fluid can dry out, regardless of use, and moving parts are subject to wear and tear, increasing the likelihood of failure. Additionally, these components are prone to corrosion as most contain metal parts.
Critical moving parts such as the VTOL arms, pusher motor pod, and wingtips should be replaced within a recommended time frame to ensure continued safe operation. Components may experience wear after 12 months, affecting overall performance, flight stability, and longevity. Replacing these parts proactively helps mitigate potential issues before they impact your drone’s performance during missions.
Not adhering to the maintenance cycle voids the warranty, as failures beyond this point—though unlikely—could have been prevented.
It remains the client’s choice to perform these cycles at their own risk.
The DeltaQuad Evo maintenance kit includes the following components:
VTOL Arms
The kit includes four VTOL arms:
Two VTOL arms with clockwise rotating motors and propellers
Two VTOL arms with counter-clockwise rotating motors and propellers
These VTOL arms come pre-assembled with landing gear, ESC (Electronic Speed Controller), motors, and propellers balanced by DeltaQuad to achieve the lowest vibration profile, ensuring smooth and stable flight performance.
Pusher Motor Pod
A fully assembled pusher motor pod is included in the kit. This pod comes with:
A housing for the ESC, motor, and propeller
Pre-installed and balanced for optimal thrust and minimal vibration, the pusher motor pod provides the forward propulsion necessary for fixed-wing flight. It complements the VTOL arms' vertical lift, aiding during both ascent and descent by holding the vehicle's position.
Wingtips
The maintenance kit also contains a pair of interchangeable wingtips. Each wingtip includes:
One servo for precise control of the drone's elevon
One LED for enhanced visibility and status indication
The wingtips are designed to be easily attachable and interchangeable, allowing for quick replacements or repairs. Either wingtip fits on both sides of the drone.
Pre-installed and Balanced Propellers
It is important not to remove the installed propellers, as this would negate their pre-installed and balanced state, designed to achieve the lowest vibration profile.
All propellers in the kit are pre-installed on their respective motors and balanced by DeltaQuad. This balancing process minimizes vibration, crucial for maintaining flight stability and extending the lifespan of both the motors and the drone's structural components.
This section discusses the steps to be taken to keep your DeltaQuad Evo in proper condition.
Preventative maintenance is crucial for ensuring the reliable and safe operation of the DeltaQuad Evo. It involves regular, scheduled inspections and servicing of the Evo's components. Given their design and functionality, components like the VTOL arms, pusher motor pod, and wingtips feature moving parts and require lubricants to ensure optimal performance. The goal is to identify and address potential issues before they lead to failures or accidents.
Regular maintenance helps in detecting wear and tear, preventing equipment malfunctions, and ensuring all systems function optimally. By adhering to a preventative maintenance schedule, operators can extend the lifespan of the DeltaQuad Evo, reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns, and maintain high performance and safety standards. This proactive approach ultimately enhances mission reliability and operational efficiency.
Follow the Post-flight Checks stated in this manual.
Clean the propellers of any dirt and inspect for damage.
Clean the fuselage and wings, this will improve performance.
To keep your vehicle in the best condition and safe to operate beyond this point scheduled maintenance should be performed. A maintenance kit can be ordered from DeltaQuad. The installation can be performed by the operator. Instructions for the installation can be found in this chapter.
The DeltaQuad Evo has been designed to allow easy replacement of components. The following components are available as replacement parts.

The maintenance chapters provide detailed instructions on keeping the DeltaQuad Evo at peak performance.
The following section describes how to replace a DeltaQuad Evo VTOL Arm.
Find a flat surface like a table big enough to fit the DeltaQuad Evo's fuselage.
Remove the hatch, as this gives more stability when the fuselage is lying upside down on the table.
Take the fuselage of the DeltaQuad Evo out of the flight case.
Put the fuselage upside down on the table.
To remove the VTOL arm, two screws need to be loosened. To access the screw heads, the landing gear leg must be fully deployed. If the landing gear is retracted, it can be gently deployed manually.
Use a size 2 hex key to loosen the two long screws located under the landing gear leg when it is retracted.
After removing the two screws, the VTOL arm can be detached. Hold the opposite VTOL arm with one hand for stabilization and pull the lower VTOL arm towards you in a straight line. Avoid wiggling from side to side or up and down.
The maintenance kit comes with four VTOL arms: two with clockwise (CW) propeller rotation and two with counter-clockwise (CCW) propeller rotation. Each VTOL arm has an inscription inside its hollow end. The inscription inside the VTOL arm must match the inscription on the respective T-section mount that holds the VTOL arm to the fuselage.
Hold the opposite VTOL arm with one hand for stabilization.
The T-section mount has an alignment groove for the VTOL arm on each side.
Align the VTOL arm so that it catches the alignment groove, then push it forward in a straight line. Avoid wiggling from side to side or up and down.
Push until the VTOL arm is fully aligned and set.
Apply a small amount of threadlocker to the tip of the screw.
Insert and tighten the first screw with moderate force until it is firmly in place. Avoid using excessive force to prevent overtightening and potential damage.
Repeat step 9. and 10. for the second screw.
The VTOL arm is now installed. Ensure that it is securely aligned and properly set in place. Double-check that both screws are snug but not overtightened to avoid any damage. Repeat the process for the remaining VTOL arms if necessary.
If you should encounter problems during the installation process please contact [email protected] for further assistance.
The following section describes how to replace a DeltaQuad Evo wingtip.
Find a flat surface, such as a table, large enough to accommodate one of the DeltaQuad Evo's wings.
Take a wing of the DeltaQuad Evo out of the flight case.
The wingtips are interchangeable and can be installed on either side.
Position the wing on a table with the wingtip pointing upward to easily access the two screw holes.
Use a Torx tool size 10 (T10) to remove the two screws from the wingtip.
When removing the second screw, the wingtip should begin to loosen from its position where it was secured. Hold and remove the wingtip with the other hand.
Before attaching the new wingtip make sure to use threadlocker on each tip of a screw.
Take the new wingtip and attach it to the wing by aligning the connectors and servo arm with the mounting hole on the side of the elevon.
Tighten both screws. Avoid using excessive force to prevent overtightening and potential damage.
Ensure the wing is properly attached and secured. Test the elevon by carefully moving it upwards. The motor of the wingtip servo should produce a sound and offer slight resistance to the movement.
The wingtip is now installed. Ensure that it is securely aligned and properly set in place. Double-check that all screws are snug but not overtightened to avoid any damage.
If you should encounter problems during the installation process please contact [email protected] for further assistance.

Take the fuselage of the DeltaQuad Evo out of the flight case.
Put the fuselage on its landing gear on the table.
Remove the hatch.
Remove the two top screws of the avionics bay hatch.
Slightly lift the avionics bay and pull it forward.
On the lower left side of the avionics bay, you will find the gray Pusher Motor Pod connector. Unplug the connector.
There are two top screws and two bottom screws holding the Pusher Motor Pod in place.
First, remove the two bottom screws.
Remove the two top screws while supporting the Pusher Motor Pod with your other hand.
Pull the Pusher Motor Pod slightly towards you and then down, away from the opening. Take the connector of the Pusher Motor Pod and guide the cable through the fuselage opening.
Remove the Pusher Motor Holder (bracket).
The Pusher Motor Holder sits inside the fuselage, securing, and aligning the Pusher Motor Pod. Install the new Pusher Motor Holder (bracket).
The bracket has two mounting points which need to sit in their respective mounting holes and flush with the fuselage.
For the installation of the Pusher Motor Pod, four screws are required: two short screws for the top of the Pusher Motor Pod and two long screws for the bottom.
Ensure to apply threadlocker to the tip of each screw.
To install the new Pusher Motor Pod, guide the cable of the Pusher Motor Pod through the fuselage opening.
Align the front screw holes of the Pusher Motor Pod with those in the fuselage, as well as the screw holes of the Pusher Motor Holder.
Insert and tighten the two short screws at the top of the Pusher Motor Pod.
Insert and tighten the two long screws at the bottom of the Pusher Motor Pod.
Connect the Pusher Motor Pod connectors and store the cable in the lower left corner of the fuselage.
To install the avionics bay hatch, catch and align its clamps with the rear edge of the avionics bay. Follow step 2 in reverse order to achieve this.
Close the avionics bay by tightening the two top screws. Please use threadlocker for these screws.
The Pusher Motor Pod is now installed. Ensure that it is securely aligned and properly set in place. Double-check that all screws are snug but not overtightened to avoid any damage.
If you should encounter problems during the installation process please contact [email protected] for further assistance.
This section explains the landing gear leg feature.
The landing gear mechanism includes a feature designed to prevent damage to the landing gear servo during a frontal impact on the landing gear leg. A clothespin-like mechanism with a predetermined breaking point separates the connection between the servo and the landing gear leg, preventing the transfer of impact energy to the servo.
To fix this, slowly deploy the landing gear until you hear a click, indicating the connection has been restored.
The following section describes how to change the propellers on the DeltaQuad Evo.
The DeltaQuad Evo comes with 5 propellers: 1 composite pusher propeller and 4 carbon fiber VTOL propellers. When replacing the propellers, please follow these guidelines.
The VTOL propellers include 2 Clockwise (CW) propellers and 2 Counterclockwise (CCW) propellers.
On the top of the VTOL propellers, there is a marking indicating the propeller's rotational direction.
The bullet-type nut on the propeller adapters is self-tightening, meaning it tightens by turning in the opposite direction of the motor and propeller's rotation. This design ensures that the propellers do not become detached as the motor spins up.
Therefore, to undo the nut on motors 1 and 2, turn it left, and for motors 3 and 4, turn it right.
Mount the propellers in the following positions noting the direction of the propeller as indicated below:
The propellers are attached by removing the motor nut and washer, sliding the propeller on the shaft, sliding the washer on top of the propeller, and fastening the nut.
For the vertical motors (VTOL motors), please make sure to install the washer in the right orientation. The washer has a wider side at the bottom.
After changing the pusher propeller, a test flight is necessary to verify that the vibration profile is within tolerances. Please contact [email protected] and share the log file for review.
The DeltaQuad Evo pusher propeller is an APC 15x10E propeller, which includes a modified ring for proper mounting on the DeltaQuad Evo pusher motor.
This small ring inside the propeller's mounting hole ensures a snug fit around the motor shaft.
Always ensure the centering ring is present and the propeller fits tightly around the shaft.
Only use DeltaQuad-approved and balanced pusher propellers.
The pusher propeller should be mounted so that it produces thrust towards the rear. This means the top of the propeller (the side with the engraved text) should face the motor, as shown in the diagram below.
All propellers are balanced in our factory by hand. This can leave scratch marks on the propeller blades. This does not indicate damage or that the propellers are used. A sign of damage can be structural weakness such as a bent propeller blade. If you find gouges or missing parts anywhere at the tip, the outboard region, or the trailing edge of the blade you need to replace the propeller.
This section will discuss how to share log files via Auterion Suite.

On the DeltaQuad Evo TAC/TAC+, more detailed logging on the flight controller is set by default to log without location data and is not encrypted. To turn this logging off or to set it to also log location-related data AMC must run in Advanced Mode (click 5 times on the AMC Menu to get the option).
Go to AMC Menu -> Advanced -> Storage while AMC is connected to the vehicle. Note that this setting persists through vehicle reboots.
Log Location Data can be set to Enabled, Disabled, and Only Local Position.
Warranty claims will only be considered valid and processed if accompanied by the relevant log files documenting the incident in question. Failure to provide the necessary log files may result in the denial of the warranty claim. By submitting a warranty request, you acknowledge and agree that the presence of log files is a mandatory requirement for warranty evaluation and potential fulfillment.
The following section describes how to replace the elevons on the DeltaQuad Evo.
Find a flat surface, such as a table, large enough to accommodate one of the DeltaQuad Evo's wings.
Take a wing of the DeltaQuad Evo out of the flight case.
Position the wing on a table with the wingtip pointing upward to easily access the two screw holes.
Use a Torx tool size 10 (T10) to remove the two screws from the wingtip.
When removing the second screw, the wingtip should begin to loosen from its position where it was secured. Hold and remove the wingtip with the other hand.
With the wingtip removed, the elevon should hang loosely. Hold the leading edge of the wing with one hand. Align the loose elevon with the trailing edge of the wing and move the elevon outward to where the wingtip was installed.
After moving the elevon slightly outward from the wing, pull it toward you. The elevon should come loose.
To install the new elevon, follow the steps described above in reverse order. The elevon hinges have 4 hooks that need to be inserted into the corresponding holes in the wing.
Align the 4 elevon hinges with the 4 holes in the wing.
Lock the elevon hinges by moving the elevon toward the wing base.
Before attaching the new wingtip make sure to use threadlocker on each tip of a screw.
Take the new wingtip and attach it to the wing by aligning the connectors and servo arm with the mounting hole on the side of the elevon.
Tighten both screws. Avoid using excessive force to prevent overtightening and potential damage.
Ensure the wing is properly attached and secured. Test the elevon by carefully moving it upwards. The motor of the wingtip servo should produce a sound and offer slight resistance to the movement.
The elevon and the wingtip is now installed. Ensure that it is securely aligned and properly set in place. Double-check that all screws are snug but not overtightened to avoid any damage.
If you should encounter problems during the installation process please contact [email protected] for further assistance.
The following section describes how to change a DeltaQuad Evo landing gear leg.
Find a flat surface like a table big enough to fit the DeltaQuad Evo's fuselage.
Remove the hatch, as this gives more stability when the fuselage is lying upside down on the table.
Take the fuselage of the DeltaQuad Evo out of the flight case.
Put the fuselage upside down on the table.
The VTOL arm does not need to be removed from the fuselage to change the landing gear leg, which can be done with the VTOL arm installed.
The landing gear leg is held in place by two screws located at the base of the landing gear. If the landing gear is retracted, manually deploy the landing gear leg by slowly moving it upwards by hand.
Loosen and remove the two screws with the Torx tool (T10).
After removing the screws, move the leg slightly toward the VTOL arm and pull it upwards.
The landing gear leg has a knee joint that needs to be inserted into the corresponding mounting hole on the VTOL arm.
Ensure that the knee joint of the landing gear leg is properly inserted into the mounting hole on the VTOL arm, as this connects to the servo mechanism that moves the leg. If not properly installed, the landing gear leg will not deploy or retract correctly.
Install the new landing gear leg by connecting the knee joint of the leg with the mounting hole of the VTOL arm.
Move the leg into the deployed position. Ensure that the landing gear latch properly connects to the latch opening on the base of the motor mount.
Reinsert the two screws into the corresponding holes and tighten them with the Torx tool (T10).

This chapter explains the process for firmware and software updates.
When purchasing a DeltaQuad Evo, operators will be notified via email of relevant firmware updates for your vehicle and software updates for the Ground Control Station (GCS).
The email notification contains a download link for the required firmware and software, instructions on how to perform the update, and a method to verify successful completion.
There are two different updates available.
In this update, the firmware of the DeltaQuad Evo flight controller needs to be updated.
In this update, your DeltaQuad Evo Ground Control Station requires a software update.
If you have questions after receiving the update instructions please contact our support at [email protected].
This section describes how to calibrate the compass.
All sensors of the DeltaQuad Evo, including the accelerometer, gyroscope, airspeed, and compass, have been calibrated and tested in our factory.
Only the compass may need re-calibration if the DeltaQuad Evo is operated in a different location with varying magnetic interference or if the compass shows inaccurate or erratic heading readings.
If the vehicle exhibits signs of compass problems, such as toilet bowling, errors during the pre-flight checks (such as Position not available), or a compass offset, you can automatically correct the sensor biases by gently oscillating the drone around its three axes by approximately ±30 degrees. Typically, two oscillations per axis are sufficient to achieve a good result.
The DeltaQuad Evo requires a compass calibration in the following conditions:
When the in-field compass calibration didn't solve the compass issues.
When indicated by events described in the DeltaQuad Evo manual:
Toilet bowling
Operator action: LAND
The vehicle should take off straight after the first few meters. If the DeltaQuad Evo starts toilet bowling (circling up) the mission should be aborted, and a compass calibration must be performed.
When the telemetry readings are inconsistent with reality.
The vehicle's current physical orientation doesn’t match the heading observed in Auterion Mission Control (AMC). A deviation higher than 15 degrees is outside the tolerance.
When a persistent compass fault is displayed in AMC, compass calibration is advised.
Preparations:
The compass calibration is best performed outside, in an area with minimal magnetic interference.
Ensure there is ample space to move around with the vehicle.
The compass calibration can be done without the wings attached to facilitate easier movement.
The DeltaQuad Evo must have the main battery and two empty payload boxes installed.
Close the fuselage hatch.
Position the DeltaQuad Evo on the ground (with the landing gear deployed).
Power on the DeltaQuad Evo and the Ground Control Station, and wait until a connection is established.
Remove all electronic and metallic devices from your person, including your phone, headset, smartwatch, etc.
The compass calibration is performed in AMC (enter Advanced Mode by clicking 5 times on the AMC menu icon). Navigate to Vehicle Overview -> Sensors -> Compass.
On the right side, the screen opens to Calibrate Compass. Click Ok to start the calibration. When AMC is used in Advanced Mode, the option to set the Autopilot Orientation is displayed—leave this option as it is. This is set automatically by the vehicle's firmware.
AMC will guide you in positioning the vehicle in a series of set orientations and then rotating it around the specified axis. Place the vehicle in any of the orientations shown in red (incomplete) and hold it still.
Once prompted (when the orientation image turns yellow), rotate the vehicle around the specified axis in either or both directions.
When the calibration is complete for the current orientation, the associated image on the screen will turn green. A sequence of beeps will guide you through the process.
Repeat the calibration process for each vehicle orientation. At the end of the calibration, all orientation images will turn green, and the progress bar at the top will be full.
After the compass calibration is complete, a warning window about magnetic interference may appear. This warning can be ignored at this stage.
Once you've calibrated the vehicle in all positions, AMC will display a Compass Calibration Complete prompt. Verify the External Compass 1 Orientation.
Depending on the installed GPS type, the orientation of the external compass differs. The External Compass 1 Orientation must show the following values for the two different GPS modules:
TUALAJ 4100: ROTATION_NONE
TUALAJ 8200: ROTATION_ROLL_180
After a successful calibration, these values should be automatically set correctly.
To finalize the process click on Reboot Vehicle.
After the compass calibration, always verify that the compass is reading correctly by pointing the vehicle north, east, south, and west. At each turn, ensure the vehicle icon on the compass rose in AMC points in the correct direction and remains steady for at least 30 seconds. If the compass deviates by more than 15 degrees, retry the calibration. If the issue persists, please contact [email protected].

This section describes the necessary steps to take after flying in the rain.
The Pitot tube is critical to an aircraft's airspeed measurement system. It is a small, forward-facing tube that measures the dynamic pressure of the air as the vehicle moves through it. This pressure is then used to calculate the vehicle's airspeed. The DeltaQuad Evo's Pitot tube is located on the aircraft's nose, where it can capture undisturbed airflow. Proper functioning of the Pitot tube is essential for accurate airspeed readings, which are crucial for safe flight operations.
As stated in the Pre-flight Checks, after flying in the rain, the vehicle must be removed from the flight case and stored in a dry space for at least 24 hours before the next flight. This ensures that all internal tubing and the external part of the Pitot tube are completely dry.
To expedite this process, the following steps can be taken:
After flying in the rain, place the vehicle nose down and put a fan on the pitot tube to dry it out.
Verify its functioning by switching the vehicle on and having a fan blow on the pitot tube. The airspeed should display a positive value that corresponds to the amount of airflow.
A visual inspection can be done of the transparent tubes to verify there is no buildup of water.
If the tubes are ever disconnected, they should be labeled, as reversing the tubes would be detrimental.
If there is an airspeed error due to water, this will show during the front transition after the VTOL takeoff. The standard timeout is 60 seconds, which will bring the vehicle quite far (approximately 800m). During the transition, the pilot can monitor the airspeed to ensure it is increasing as the vehicle begins the front transition. The airspeed is displayed in the Telemetry Dashboard, in the lower right corner of the Fly View. AS displays the airspeed.
If the airspeed is not increasing or displays an error, the pilot should issue the Land command. The takeoff site should be suitable for this. Alternatively, the land command can also be given in the Emergency Action tab.
