Inspection Criteria  

 

If the part does NOT pass the listed criteria upon inspection, replace/repair part immediately. As 
a part of the inspection for each part, check for tightness of all fasteners listed for that part in the 
component identification description. Check for tightness to the listed torque.  

 

Part 

Inspection Criteria   

Propeller (CCW/CW) 

No cracks or chips larger than 0.1-inch radius  

Propeller blade level with arm  

M3x12 mount screws tight and rust free 

10 mm lug bolts tight and rust free  

Rotor (CCW/CW) 

No rattling or scratching noise when spun by hand  

No large dents or cracks in rotor housing  

LED mount screws tight  

Rotor guard mount screws tight  

Ground Station Link 
Radio Antenna  

Antenna casing structurally intact 

Antenna screwed in tight to antenna mount  
 

(comes loose often) 

Antenna mount screws tight and rust free   

GPS 

Correct LED indicator colors when powered on 

GPS secured straight and tight to mast (Double sided tape OK)  

GPS housing and wire not damaged  
 

(check closely at mount points and where wire enters frame) 

Acceptable GPS accuracy performance  

GPS does not frequently give errors in AgroSol  

GPS Mast 

No cracks in material  

All screws tight and rust free  

Altitude Detection 
Radar 

Radar housing intact  

Radar wire not damaged 
 

(check closely at mount points and where wire enters frame) 

Unit does not heat up when powered on  

Acceptable altitude readouts in AgroSol  

Flowmeter Units 

Flowmeter housing intact 

Acceptable flowrate readouts in AgroSol  

Flowmeter wire not damaged  
 

(check closely at mount points and where wire enters frame) 

Flowmeter Accuracy  

Flowrate performance during flight (gal/ac output) should be 
within 2%, or 5% in the worst case  

Set a constant test flowrate and measure output over 1 minute 
using a graduated cylinder, actual flowrate should match desired 

If flowrate is not to desired accuracy, perform the flowmeter 
calibration as described in the software manual  

Pumps 

Pump housing intact  

Acceptable maximum pump pressure performance  
 

(maximum pressure output will decline over time)
