@mid9ine How much is that in United States dollars?

Been waiting for this comparison since I started looking at buy drone a drone for an application business.

Great job. This video was very informative. Thank you for the information.

I don't even know what a farm looks like in real life yet I'm binge-watching these drone videos. I can't be the only one....

Florda citrus, have you done anything as of yet? Have been watching and see many areas were the drone will work, also what about a electro charge partice for drift conrol.

There is a lot he didn't mention with the Hylio, he stated there's no warning when the Hylio takes off, which isn't true. On the software you actually have to arm the drone first before takeoff. This is a safety feature the DJI doesn't have. Also running the Hylio we've been able to cover more acres per day with the smaller 130 then the DJI T40. Best case we've seen with the T40 is 23-25 acres and hour but with the Hylio 130, smaller drone, we've been able to reach 27-29 acres per hour, the 272 is even higher at closer to 50-55 acres per hour. Also he didn't mention spray patterns, with the T40 you have 2 centrifugal nozzles that cause a whirl wind effect, which can create serious problems in somewhat windy conditions and cause erratic spray patterns. The Hylio has your regular T nozzle and the downforce from the blades keep the product going straight down. The DJI we've had a lot of issues with pumps failing as well as engines failing, having parts overnighted to us at 500$ a pop isn't the right answer. Hylio has been much better on getting us parts when we need it as well as they have signed up a dealer close to us give us the attention we need.

@pedro199518 we own a 272 and you can do up to 2.5 gals and up to a 40 swath. The swath depends a lot on how high you are above the crop. Max flying speed is 28 mph but it's all going to depend on the application.

Something you didn't mention which is also important is that the Hylio controller, which is a generic controller, has no hot swap battery and will not last a full day, 4-5 hours if you have screen brightness at 50% which makes the screen almost not visible in daylight. We have that controller with a completely different device, and it has the older micro-usb port, is very slow to charge and we have to either have a pocket juice battery tethered to it or taped to the controller. In some defense of its ruggedness, we've had no issues there and we've operated in sub-zero temperatures with it so while not IP rated like the DJI controller its not horrid. Also the camera going out is because that controller only supports a very weak 2.4ghz wifi video signal transmission system vs DJI's much more robust system. The controller is made in Taiwan and assembled in China, you will see that controller mentioned as NDAA or Blue UAS but that is only because it was given an exemption not because it still isn't made/assembled in china.

I dont think DJI will be banned. I think they will just have a stronger legislation to not use them on government or federally funded grounds. Most farms in America are privately held.

Alright I run ag 272s you forgot to talk about swarm vs none sworn mode. 5 guys no you need new test pilots lol You already have your nozzels laying between the drone landing points 1 person carries 2 batteries out sets them down puts nozzel in drone 20 gal minute pump turn on go swap 1 battery 20 seconds then the other click pump off walk back with both batteries start. 1 min 30 seconds to do with 1 guy however both platforms are way way to small. Both need massive improvements that will be coming. Just 1 field is 960 acres of crop. You are working hard to do all this though. Need 50 to 60. Gallon tanks and none swap batteries with 10 to 15 min charge times. Good comparison for the most part. Well done.

I’m happy someone else doesn’t have blinders on. Glad to see comparisons of these drones, but Jesus Christ was this heavily slanted towards DJI. Your refill “competition” could have been informative, but you seemed to give no credit to the fact that the Hylio tank is almost twice the capacity. No wonder it’d be slower to turnaround in between flights. There’s also going to be less refills with the bigger capacity. Does that make the refill times wash out? And one person can almost certainly handle both batteries in an efficient time, saying it takes 5 people only belies the bias apparent throughout. And then there’s what I would have considered the most important part of a video like this. Actual efficiency… Which drone covered more acres in the same amount of time? Over how many flights? The safety concerns are noted, though seem a touch overblown. The software issues though, that could be a pain if valid and I would have liked to see more of your focus there. It does seem much more straightforward to tell the drone the desired gpa rate and have it sort out the details. All that being said, this video should hopefully have a sequel in the future when the T-50 gets to the states. That’d be a more apt comparison than this.

Imagine spending 50k on a setup and having the govt ban it a month later

It's obvious if one has no brain then thinking that Made in Chyna, assembled in America does not mean "made in the US." DJI is an American company, too. So what's your point? As stated above you didn't take all the costs into the equation. Also the need for 5 crew versus 2 is a huge difference in the cost of doing business.
