What is a “Drone”?
Small UAS (sUAS) Multi - Rotor Small UAS (sUAS) Fixed Wing
• <1 – 55 lbs gross weight including payload • Line of site/FPV flight control • Autonomous Flight Capable • 3-5 km wireless range • 20 -90 minute flight time • 25-100mph flight speed • Battery Power

Small Unmanned AircraH System (sUAS) Equipment
AAIR Team employs the ASC Tec “Falcon 8” aircraH designated as “Eagle”. The baPery powered and remotely operated Eagle craH has the following features: • Hi Res 25 MP digital camera payload • HD photo/video stream • Dual axis 180 degree field of vision • Ac2vely stabilized camera mount • GPS flight control • Max wind tolerance of 15 M/S • Deployable in minutes • Autonomous flight capable

Wind Applica2ons
Leading Edge Erosion
* LE Erosion can significantly impact blade aerodynamics, resulting in a decrease in AEP for the turbine
![Page 11: New ideas for trimming O&M costs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a6bd901a28abb2498b46d0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Wind Applica2ons
Lightning Damage
* Lightning Damage when left unchecked can develop into serious structural problems for a blade
![Page 12: New ideas for trimming O&M costs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a6bd901a28abb2498b46d0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Wind Applica2ons
Trailing Edge Split
* TE damage can propagate into failure of the blade, resulting in much higher repair costs if not addressed early
![Page 13: New ideas for trimming O&M costs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a6bd901a28abb2498b46d0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Wind Applica2ons -‐ Future
• Thermal Imaging
• Lidar/Photogrammetry
• Blade Modeling • Site survey
• Autonomous flight
![Page 14: New ideas for trimming O&M costs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a6bd901a28abb2498b46d0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Opera2onal Benefits
• Reduced asset downtime (30-‐‑40 min inspection times) • Enhanced Safety (Eliminate working at height with ropes or cranes) • Cost Effective (Similar price point to ground based inspection with a
third of the downtime) • BIG DATA

sUAS Regulatory Environment
Regulatory Issues
• FAA “Policy” prohibits commercial use of UAS un2l formal rules can be enacted. A Sec2on 333 Exemp2on from the FAA is the only path
• Texas law (HB 912 effec2ve 9/2013) allows UAS use for the
purpose of electric u2lity line inspec2ons (among other specific uses).
• Must comply with all Federal, State and Local regula2ons.
