Like all safety and rescue systems (emergency parachutes for paragliding or skydiving, avalanche airbags, etc.), Dronavia parachutes are subject to periodic preventive maintenance requirements as well as post-deployment servicing. These operations are essential to ensure system integrity, performance compliance and continued operation under optimal conditions.
Each POD has a one-year validity date. Once this period has expired, Dronavia withdraws the warranty for the associated Kronos system.
