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 release 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.
