Exhibit A

Great River Information Technologies Policy & 

Procedures Manual

Effective March 1, 2015

All equipment including the actual UAV and all support equipment 

is thoroughly inspected prior to flying. This includes verifying all 

batteries and iPad monitoring stations are fully charged, additional 

rotor blades, motors as well as all necessary tools are inspected and 

loaded into professional cases which must accompany the flight 

crew.

A mapped out flight plan must be plotted on the Great River IT 

online portal that outlines the planned flight.

Our flight crew consists of both a pilot and an observer. We will 

NEVER fly with less than 2 responsible crew members. 

We will always conduct a pre-flight inspection of the subject 

property prior to flight with a 100% emphasis on security. Our goal 

is to identify any and all obstacles, such as power lines, trees, 

nearby structures that may potentially impact the UAV 

performance. 

We require signed written authorization from the property owner 

or responsible party, i.e. farmer, realtor or signed listing agent prior 

to property entry and inspection. 
We will never fly when weather conditions are not optimal. Our 

potential clients must agree to abide by this directive as windy, 

rainy, foggy conditions may hamper the safety of the flight and the 

video quality of the recordation. 

We currently self monitor our operations under the highest 

standards of professionalism and safety. 

We expect our standards will exceed anything the FAA mandates 

and we will comply with any organizing or administrative body 

that ultimately will administer or regulate our segment of the 

market. 

We have thus voluntarily and unilaterally agreed to the following 

flight restrictions pending a final FAA ruling regarding small 

UAVs. 

WE NEVER FLY ABOVE 200 FEET when shooting a property. 

We fly RESPONSIBLY at all times utilizing the latest safety 

technologies, software updates and safety equipment. Although we 

have an FPV camera on board, WE ALWAYS MAINTAIN 

VISUAL SIGHT OF OUR DRONE and also record our drone with 

a separate camera, providing proof of control over our flight. We 

won't fly in inclement weather such as wind, rain, fog or at night.

We will not fly a UAV within 5 miles of any airport without 

requesting limited permission. In addition to public safety, we have 

a significant investment in our equipment and will never put it at 

risk. 

We have NO INTEREST in anyone's private life. We require 

written permission from the homeowner who's home we are 

filming. Adjacent properties may appear on the periphery in our 

videos in connection with the home we are shooting, however we 

reject any video footage in which a neighbor or anyone else may 

be seen. 
No flights shall be done over any pedestrians or a public audience.

We welcome all questions by interested parties regarding our video 

productions and endeavor to address all queries and assuage all 

issues PRIOR to flying. We will maintain our focus on the UAV 

when in flight so as not to be distracted. Continuous flight duration 

NEVER exceeds 15 minutes for both safety reasons and editing 

requirements. 

Ultimately, the purpose of utilizing the UAV and it's video 

capabilities provides for exciting and motivating productions that 

we believe will stimulate the farming and housing sector and 

increase crop yields and home sales. Our business expects to hire 

additional well trained professionals which will certainly increase

employment across the country. We believe that our software 

experience coupled with our UAV experience will be a benefit to 

the American public.

Flight Checklist Considerations

Preperation Before Flying

1: Visually	inspect	the	aircraft	for	body	damage	taking	greater	

attention	to	the	landing	gear	and	camera/gimbal.

2: Check	the	propellers	you	will	use	during	a	flying	session	for	

damage	like	chips,	cracks,	bending	and	hub	wear.

3: Check	your	batteries	for	damage/signs	of	swelling.	Swollen	

batteries	should	really	not	be	used	for	flying.

4: Spin	the	motors	with	your	fingers	and	make	sure	none	

feel/sound	different.

5: Charge	all	required	flight	batteries.	Run	the	battery	self	

check	feature.
6: Charge	the	UAV controller	and	power	on/off	to	verify	it	

works.

7: Charge	your	mobile monitoring device.	Close	all	running	

apps	then	test	the	Pilot	App	to	make	sure	it	opens.

8: Make	sure	you	have	MicroSD	card(s)	available	

empty/formatted.	

9: Power	on	the	controller	then	UAV and	quickly	check	that	

IMU	readings	are	within	range.	It	should	normally	be	OK.	

Power	everything	back	off.

10. Cache	maps	in	the	Pilot	App	as needed.

11: Make	sure	Gimbal	guard	is	fitted	before	transport.	

12: Pack	the	UAV in	a	secure transport	method	making	sure	

not	to	damage	it.

13. Check	Weather, Solar	Radiation/Storm	Levels,	Wind	

speed/direction	and	is	the	location	you	will	fly	is	in	a	SAFE	TO	

FLY	ZONE.

Pre-Flight

1: Make	sure	the	area	you	are	going	to	fly	in	is	safe	not	only	for	

you	but	members	of	the	public,	animals	and	other	aircraft	too.	

2: Carefully	unpack	the	UAV and	the	controller,	

tablet,	 batteries	and	propellers	onto	a	clean	surface.	Check	the	

UAVto	make	sure	its	OK.	Also	remember	to	remove	any	lens	

cap	and	check	the	lens	is	clean	on	the	camera.

3: Mount	your	tablet/phone	onto	the	UAV controller	and	

attach	the	USB	cable	fro	the	device	to	it.

4: Put	the	battery	into	the	UAV making	sure	it	is	seated	

correctly.

5: Attach	a	set	of	propellers	to	each	motor.	Make	sure	to	mount	

the	Black	headed	hubs	to	the	black	tipped	motors	and	the	Gray	

headed	hubs	to	the	silver	tipped	motors.	make	sure	to	snugly	
tighten	the	propellers	by	hand.

6: Place	the	UAV	on	clean	level	ground.	Use	a	small	square	

sheet	of	plywood	or	a	transport	case	if	needed.

7: Remove	the	Gimbal	Guard.

8: Power	on	the	controller	and	then	the	UAV.	Open	the	Pilot	

App	on	your	tablet/phone	and	verify	you	can	see	a	live	feed	

from	the	aircraft.	Allow	it	to	set	a	“Home	Point”.	Monitor	the	

aircraft’s	status	lights	to	confirm	this	as	well	as	the	Pilot	App.	

Have	the	antennas	setup	like	Rabbit	Ears	( Looking	at	the	

controller	form	the	side _| – Looking	at	the	controller	form	the	

front \_/ ).

9. Turn	the	volume	UP	on	the	tablet	with	the	Pilot	App	Open.

10. Set	the	brightness	to	full	on	your	tablet.

11: Calibrate	the	compass.	Keep	the UAV about	10	feet	from	

the	controller	and	any	metal	objects	when	doing	compass	

calibration.	If	the	calibration	fails,	move	the	UAV from	its

current	location	and	try	again.

12. Check	that	the	PAF	switch	is	in	the	desired	position.

13: Move	about	10	feet	from	the	UAV making	sure	the	back	of	

it	is	facing	you.	Arm	the	motors	using	the	CSC	(	Combination

Stick	Command	).	The	Pilot	App	will	confirm	the	aircraft	is	

ready	to	fly.	Make	sure	a	valid	“Home	Point”	has	been	

recorded.

14: Slowly	increase	the	throttle	and	lift	the	UAV about	15	feet	

off	the	ground.	Do	a	slow	left/right/forward/back	movement	

and	YAW	to	confirm	its	stable	and	working	as	expected.	

Post Flight

1: Land	the	UAV and	power	it	off	(it	will	take	a	few	seconds	

before	the	aircraft	switched	off,	don’t	do	anything	until	its	OFF	

).	Power	off	the	controller.

2: With	the	UAV on	a	clean	surface,	give	it	a	quick	check	for	

damage,	dirt	and	dead	flies.	Refit	the
3: Remove	the	propellers,	use	the	provided	prop	tool	to	

loosen them	if	needed.	Give	them	a	quick	look	over	for	damage	

before	storing	them.

4: Remove	the	battery.	It	might	be	a	little	warm	after	flight,	this	

is	normal.	Check	it	for	damage/swelling	and	if	all	is	OK,	place	it	

to	one	side	to	cool	a	little	whilst	you	do	everything	else.

5: Remove	the	phone/tablet	from	the	holder	and	store	it	and	

the	controller.

6: Refit	the	Gimbal	Guard.

7: Put	the	UAV back	in	its	case/backpack.

8: Put	the	battery	back	in	the	case/backpack.

9: Make	sure	you	haven’t	left	anything	behind	before	going	

home	to	check	the	video/photos	out.
