The other day, after spraying pesticide with drone in Higashiomi City, Shiga Prefecture, I saw a demonstration flight of XAIRCRAFT drone for agricultural chemical spraying in the premises of the drone specialty shop "SORACUL".

 

It features a precise flight with its own measuring system and does not require human operation from take-off to landing. A strong wind was blowing on that day, but it was a stable flight that made me feel no wind at all.

 

Even they say it is fully automated, it is necessary to measure the form of the field to be sprayed beforehand with human power, but if you do not need human skills for the flight itself, it seems to be useful for increasing the efficiency of spraying work.

It looks sophisticated that liquid tanks and batteries are cassette type.
