My Drone Won't Turn On or Shuts Off Immediately

If your Aeroo Pro drone isn’t powering up or turns off shortly after starting, don’t worry — this is often something simple that can be resolved with a few quick checks. 

 

Steps to Get Your Drone Back in the Air 

Step 1: Check the Battery Charge

Tap the battery’s power button once: 

  • No lights? The battery might just need a recharge. 
  • Flashing Lights? It’s in a low-charge state.
  • What to do: Connect it to the official Aeroo Charger and let it charge fully before trying again.

 

Step 2: Make Sure the Battery is Installed Properly

  • Insert the battery until you hear a click - this means it’s securely in place. 
  • Check that it sits flush with the drone’s body. 

 

Step 3: Wake the Battery Up From Storage Mode

If the battery has been unused for an extended period, it may enter a low-power “sleep” state:

  • Connect it to the charger and allow it to charge for at least 10 minutes.
  • Attempt to power on the drone again after charging. 

 

Step 4: Use the Correct Power-On Sequence

  1. Quickly press and the drone's power button.
  2. Immediately press and hold the power button until all four lights illuminate.

This sequence is designed to prevent accidental power-ups.


Step 5: Check Battery Temperature

Batteries operate best within a specific temperature range:

  • If the battery feels cold: Warm it up gradually to room temperature before use.
  • If the battery feels too warm for charging: Let it cool before powering on the drone.

 

Step 6: Inspect the Battery Contacts

  • Wipe the battery and drone contact switch with a dry cloth to make sure they’re clean
  • Avoid using liquids or cleaners

The contacts are the gold dots on the battery and charger. 

 

Step 7: Try an Alternate Battery

If you’ve got a second battery, pop it in and see if the drone powers on. 

  • If it does, the first battery may need service or replacement.
