No matter where you are on your personal or business flight plan, success with drone spraying comes from making the right moves before the season starts.
We've got you covered with this simple 10-point checklist to help you get airborne and stay there as seamlessly as possible.
- Drone Selection: Are you confident the drone you’ve purchased will meet your needs?
- Licensing: Do you understand the licensing requirements to legally operate a drone and apply pesticides in your region?
- Insurance: Do you have the right insurance in place for your drone business, with suitable coverage and limits?
- Training: Are you up to date on the hands-on operation of your drone for the crops and conditions you’ll be facing?
- Software: Were you wondering about specialized software available to streamline your service delivery and make your operations more efficient?
- Support: Who will you contact for drone support and warranty details if necessary?
- Maintenance: Are you familiar with the critical parts and maintenance support process to keep your drone efficient and operational when it really needs to be?
- Compliance: How will you stay informed on flight operations and regulatory compliance, and what records are essential to maintain?
- Data and Maps: Are you aware of the available data and maps to deliver valuable insights for your customers and growers?
- Emergency Preparedness: What's your plan if your drone malfunctions during the season, and is there a drone loaning program or financing available for business growth?
