6.3 Deploying US-1

damage, particularly the propellers, landing gear, and land-
ing gear feet.
2. Inspect the four motor and two propeller screws, ensuring that
the torque stripe shows the screw has not rotated.
3. Ensure that the gimbal is securely attached to the vehicle and
the locking collar is firmly locked.
4. Check that the desired SD cards are installed in the FLIR cam-
era.
5. Remove the lens caps of the camera.
