Cattle Squeeze Chute

Additional Questions. Should the quote for the drone include a parachute or training? Parachute add-on is not required. Please see below re: training " On-site training, flight safety briefings, and technical onboarding are not required as part of this procurement. Standard manufacturer documentation and remote technical support are sufficient to meet the requirements of the solicitation.
