INTRODUCTION
by our CEO
Ludovic Pelletey, Dronavia’s CEO.
Dear customer,
Congratulations on the purchase of your new
accessories MOC M2 & MOC 2511, including a
CO2-triggered rescue parachute & a stand-
alone external FTS system for your DJI Matrice
350 drone.
You've chosen what we're sure are the best
performing systems of their type. Extensive
research and testing have gone into making
them as safe and effective as possible.
Based in Remiremont, France, DRONAVIA is at
your service to advise you on the purchase of
your accessories MOC M2 & MOC 2511 for DJI
Matrice 350 and to answer any questions of a
technical or commercial nature.

GENERAL
p r e s e n t a t i o n
The MOC M2 Kronos parachute for Matrice 350
and the MOC2511 Kronos external FTS for
Matrice 350 have been designed for DJI Matrice
350/300 aircraft with the aim of deploying as
quickly as possible while keeping the sink rate
to a minimum.
Multi-rotor UAVs, even when properly used and
maintained, can sometimes find themselves in a
critical emergency situation where immediate
rescue is required, due to severe weather
conditions, radio transmission failure, technical
failure of the propulsion system, loss of GPS
signal, and so on.
In such situations, the FTS system coupled with
the quick-release parachute system can make
the difference between a simple scare and a
more serious accident. The MOC M2 Kronos
parachute for Matrice 350/300 and the
MOC2511 Kronos external FTS for Matrice
350/300 can be activated & deployed in less
than a second.

GENERAL
p r e s e n t a t i o n
These emergency devices do not protect the
integrity of the equipment or prevent damage
to property or persons; they are a safety feature
that complements other safety features.
Neither DRONAVIA nor its distributors may be
held responsible for any malfunction or
operation deemed insufficient or even
ineffective.

The Kronos M350 MOC M2 parachute system has
been developed to meet the requirements of the
Means of Compliance with Light-UAS.2512
published by the EASA:
The Light-UAS.2512 standard offers several options for complying
with the SORA's M2 mitigation measures. M2 mitigation measures
are designed to reduce the effect of ground impact once control of
the operation is lost. This is done by reducing the effect of the UA
impact dynamics (i.e. area, energy, impulse, transfer energy, etc). "
"A Flight Termination System (FTS) is a system which, when activated,
terminates the flight. By its very nature, it is an emergency measure and
not a precautionary one. Its purpose is to ensure that an out-of-control
UAS does not enter adjacent areas with an indefinite trajectory but, on the
contrary and preferably, that it stops, and that its crash/debris zones are
kept strictly within the ground risk buffer zone. "
The Kronos M350 MOC 2511 FTS has been
developed to meet the requirements of the Means
of Compliance with Light-UAS.2511 published by
the EASA:

Dronavia may suspend the warranty and
disclaim all liability to any person who fails to
comply with the basic safety instructions set out
below.
Dronavia accepts no responsibility for damage
or injury caused directly or indirectly by the use
of CO2 cartridges or by the use of CO2
cartridges that do not comply with safety
requirements and standards.
Before handling the Kronos systems for Matrice
350/300 you must read this manual carefully. It
provides information on how to use the
parachute. In addition to the important notes
and information mentioned in this manual, the
owner of the device must comply with all the
important instructions set out below.

WARNINGS
& p r e c a u t i o n s f o r u s e
7
The Kronos system for Matrice 350 consists of 2
safety devices which, under certain conditions,
prevent the drone fitted with them from leaving
its regulatory flight envelope by cutting its
engines, and prevent the drone fitted with them
from free-falling.
Activation of the FTS and/or parachute
inevitably involves the drone falling.
This equipment does not prevent technical
problems occurring on the drone. Any flight with
a drone implies the existence of a danger for the
equipment and people in the vicinity, regardless
of the safety equipment used. Using the Kronos
FTS and parachute for the DJI Matrice 350/300
should in no way increase your risk.

It is forbidden to carry out any manipulations other than those specified in the manual.
The device should only be used by or under the supervision of a responsible adult. Always
keep the device out of the reach of children. Do not let them play with it.
Do not under any circumstances dismantle the various parts of the device, except when
resetting it in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
Do not place the device in a damp or wet environment and keep it out of direct sunlight.
Do not expose the system to high temperatures, strong shocks, shock hazards, contact with
chemicals or acids, or long-term storage in a high-humidity or dusty environment. Incorrect
use could cause the CO2 cartridge to burst, endangering your life. The maximum operating
temperature is 40°C and the minimum operating temperature is -5°C.
The condition of the Kronos parachute and FTS system for Matrice 350/300 should be
checked before each flight. Do not use the device if it is damaged. If necessary, contact your
dealer.
The Kronos parachute system and FTS for Matrice 350/300 cannot prevent the drone from
malfunctioning.

The use of a Kronos parachute and FTS system for Matrice 350/300 should in no way
increase your risk.
The Kronos parachute system for Matrice 350/300 attempts to prevent a malfunctioning
UAV from free-falling. However, there are fall situations in which the effectiveness of the
Kronos parachute system for Matrice 350/300 may be limited or impeded.
The Kronos parachute and FTS system for Matrice 350/300 must be actively activated by
the user. Regular training is necessary to be able to react correctly in an emergency.
The CO2 cartridge and ejection system work only once. You can recharge the system
yourself by following the instructions in this manual. It is your responsibility to ensure that
the system is covered by warranty.
When reloading, it is forbidden to do so with people nearby, and especially with the barrel
pointing in their direction. You must take the same precautions as when handling a loaded
rifle. In the event of accidental firing during this stage or mishandling, the firing pin could be
ejected and cause serious injury. Safety glasses must be worn.
After the device has been triggered, it is advisable to inspect each component carefully to
ensure its integrity. If in doubt, contact your dealer.
15 After switching on the system, if the LED changes to a steady red, do not use it and contact
your dealer for assistance.
