For those of you who are completing your Ops manual for the CAA certification, how are you fairing with some of the speicifcations. GPS, IMU serial No.s etc.. C ratings on the batteries. Some of this infomation is not readily available. Did you just put N/A?

Does anyone have any input on this?

Hi GB44  

I am just filling out my op's manual for Uk Permission to work and having trouble finding all the info for the         Aircraft Technical Specifications. can see you it has been discussed before in this thread, it would be a great help if you could give me some advice on what to put for the Dji Inspire.
Thanks in advance

Hi GB44,

I am going through EuroUSC in 10 days and want to get up and running asap.  I have an event booked for the end of June so need to get on with it.  Would it be possible to get hold of a copy of whatever you are prepared to share?

Thanks

To All,

List teh specific queries you have in relation to your Ops Manuals and I will endeavour to answer and help where I can.

Tim, I think you might be pushing it a bit with an event booked end of June - CAA can apparently take several months just to review and approve the ops manual after submission.

I too would be interested in the tech data you guys have submitted if possible. Thanks!

Is there a place in the app that provides most of the serial number info etc?

HI Guys

I am in the same boat, looking to get my manual done as soon as possible. Does anyone know how you can download the Pilot and Aircraft Log into a spreadsheet from the Pilot Ap? My email is tim.durham00@gmail.com and I would certainly love to see another ops manual before I submit mine as I am literally flying in the dark!

bubo_bubo Posted at 2015-5-28 05:24
Thanks GB44

Your Aircraft Serial number is on the case label it came with.  There is also another serial number in the app if you click on the aircraft picture within the User Account.

I peeled the label off the cardboard carton the case was shipped in, which is the same as the label on the case itself.

I provided both serial numbers for the Aircraft as part of the Ops Manual Specifications.

Hi GB44

I am doing mine with Euro USC.

If your doing it with EuroUSC, they will provide you with a generic template for your Ops Manual.

I would suggest that you simply use their template as I submitted my own version that I got from a different source and they didn't like it.  It contained all the same information, but just not in the format they like, so I had to re-write my Ops Manual using their template.

If you haven't received their template yet you will once you book your practical flight test/ exam.

Once you start completing the Ops Manual, if you have any queries on what to put in the specs section or elsewhere let me know.

Hi GB44.  I have my part one theory in 2 weeks time.  I have literally received the ops manual template from them today so I will attempt to populate it myself first.

If I get stuck, I will ask for some help.  Many thanks for the kind offer.  It is much appreciated.
Kind regards.

What specifically are you stuck on and who are you doing your training with.  If its EuroUSC you will get a template from them.

If you are stuck on a particular spec entry within your Ops Manual, just ask or highlight specifics here on the forum.

Hey,

I'm unsure about what exactly to put for a few things or if they are fully relevent to this system, if you could advise on any of it that would be great thanks.

Firstly what is the Flight Control System? and the Power Supply for it?
GPS Unit?
Inertial Measuring Unit?
Transmitter Make and Model?
Receiver Make and Model?
Aircraft Control Frequency and Power?
Ground Station Link Make and Model?

Cheers thats a great help.

How detailed did you get in the abbreviations? Like do you need to put everything such as kg - Kilograms, mAh - Milliamps Hour etc?

Yes.

What ever the abbreviation is you need to explain what that is.  e.g.
CAA - Civil Aviation Authority
MTOM - Maximum Take Off Mass

Yes.

What ever the abbreviation is you need to explain what that is.  e.g.

I think I'm almost finished my Ops Manual (for first review anyway) however I'm coming up stuck on the battery checker. It mentions the Fusion one, does this work with the Inteligent Flight Batteries?
If not what sort of solution/ device have you got?

What is the exact question regarding battery checker.  I don't recall this.

I am not aware of any battery checker for the Inspire batteries as this is done within the App or by pressing the battery button for an approximate charge level.

The simplest way is to say battery levels will be monitored continuously in flight using the iOS App, onboard aircraft battery indicators, led and audio notifications, with battery % levels and residual charge following flights recorded in respective battery charge logbook.

Let me know the exact question or issue you are trying to address if the above doesn't answer your issue.

GBH255,

Further to my last post, the Fusion battery checker is for other types of rechargeable batteries such as checking batteries within Futaba controllers and other aircraft or rechargeable batteries.  Not suitable for the DJI Inspire batteries.

This sounds like it has been left in your template by mistake or is simply a generic statement that can be edited out of your Ops Manual as it is not required for the Inspire.

Jason,

How you getting on with your Ops Manual ??  Any questions ?

Hi GB.  I am slowly working my way through it.  Just saw your previous post regarding some specs on the IMU and GPS details, Just what I was looking for.  Would you happen to know any details about the flight controllers power supply?

One other area of confusion is regarding third party liability insurance.  Now currently I have third party insurance for leisure purposes only through the BMFA.  I understand that I must eventually get commercial third party cover, but I was hoping to hold off until I receive my PFAW as it would be wasted money.  Can it be done this way around or must I get commercial cover before I submit the ops manual?  If I do need to get cover, could you recommend a good insurer and what kind of premiums should I expect to pay?

Many thanks to you.

Jason

Jason,\

Spec info as follows:

Flight Control System         =  DJI - A2 Variant
Flight Control Serial Number =        DJI -  (None available for Inspire)
Flight Control Power Supply  =        Main flight battery
GPS Unit  =  DJI
GPS Unit Serial Number  =  N/A
Inertial Measuring Unit  =  N/A
IMU Serial Number  =        N/A
Telemetry Link Make and Model  =  DJI  ios App version 1.1.2
Telemetry Link Frequency and Power  =        DJI - 5.8Ghz  25mW

I trust the above helps.

For all you guys seeking to take your commercial flight tests and submitting your Ops Manual to the CAA in the UK,  please note the CAA is currently behind on commercial applications.  It is therefore likely that the time frame for approvals will extend beyond the 28 days advised by EuroUSC and more likely be more than 30 days to process (no specific time frames confirmed).  So don't be agreeing any commercial work until you know you have your CAA approval.  You don't want to jeopardise your application before you get the approval.
