Debrief
Vertical modules need an oblique pass, so the flight plan switched to 35° camera pitch and flew both faces of every row.
Findings were grouped by row so the farm crew could replace damaged modules during the next shearing break.
The east and west faces come back as separate contacts, which is the only way we can tell where the damage actually is.
