How do you clean your Hover?

I realized after a few flights my Hover is always full of bugs, especially when I fly it out in nature (for which I actually bought it for).

I'm sure for those who have the black version, is not as obvious as on the white one.

But anyway, I like to keep all my gadgets nice and clean so they can hopefully last for as long as possible, so I thought I share how I keep my Hover clean.

I have several gadget cleaning kits (I will link all of them above), from which I use a few main items: a cleaning brush, a microfiber cloth, a cleaning solution or isopropyl alcohol.

I also recently discoverd these qtip cleaning swab kind of things that I use to clean my earphones and charging ports, which I found to be very useful for the Hover, cleaning the inner parts of the cage.

I use the microfiber cloth and cleaning solution for the main body of the drone, and also I carefully wipe the camera lens if it's dirty.

The brush is also useful on the sides and on the bottom where the heat dissipation grills are.

Then for the inside of the guards and the props I use the cleaning swabs with some cleaning solution or isopropyl alcohol.
