BUYER QUESTION
Ownership
Selling or gifting a drone: hand over the aircraft, not your old assumptions
A practical exit checklist for owners passing equipment to someone else.
DIRECT ANSWER
Separate your own account, records and configuration from the physical kit, then ensure the next owner can identify the exact aircraft, controller, batteries and official setup material. The new owner should make their own current checks.
THE TRADE-OFF
A complete handover takes more care than a quick listing, but makes it easier for the next owner to start with the actual equipment and current information.
The next sensible step
Create a factual kit inventory and direct the next owner to the manufacturer material and CAA sources for their own setup.
- 01List the actual aircraft, controller, batteries and accessories included.
- 02Follow the manufacturer’s account and reset instructions for the exact product.
- 03Direct the next owner to make their own current CAA and configuration checks.
