Controller voice memo “battery low” keeps repeating even after the drone is landed.

Camera quality seems low. For us we do run a good number of manual flights so very important to us.

Spray arms release to tight. Probably will improve with wear however maybe a knob or something would help. Currently using pocket knife to persuade it. The rear horizontal beam has been broken and needs reinforcement. This might be related to the difficulty in folding the spray nozzle. It is suggested that the automatic sliding rails be designed with hand-operated latch mechanisms, which would be simpler.

We sprayed 200 acres of pasture last week and noticed that calibrating the pumps never seemed to work. First we noticed that the max output was limited to 5.9 gpm. A 3 gpa set point would put out 4.5 gpa. Upon further inspection, we noticed that the back load cells kept falling off of their pads on the frame. We did som adjusting and adding “bumpers” to the sides of the tank to keep it in place the best we could. But still the pump calibration would only allow 5.9 gpm after the modification.

Current weight sensor get worn out easily.
