This document provides information about the Yamaha RMAX helicopter and its use for spraying applications in a research project with UC Davis. It describes the RMAX's dimensions and performance specifications, including a 141 lb dry weight, 10 ft main rotor diameter, and a 246 cc, 21 hp 2-stroke engine. The document outlines operational guidelines for daylight, low altitude use within line of sight of a certified pilot and spotter. It discusses the UC Davis project which found the RMAX could cover 10 times more acres per hour than a tractor for spraying, with benefits like improved safety and efficiency, reduced soil compaction, and lower chemical usage and exposure levels.
