 20 miles west of Indianapolis Indiana | I was pretty set on perusing a Ceres Raptor for 30K or less. 18 gallon tank and fast. That was batteries and cooling station. A user I know is saying he’s had more software issues than he’s comfortable with recommending it yet. He recommended a DJI60X and I was excited about the larger tank and speed/hour. The DJI is 18-20K. I’m willing to spend more than that. Willing to spend up to 30.
Wanting to be able to do 250 acres working bankers hours so i can keep our sweetcorn stand stocked and make it to kids events in the evening/late afternoon.
Acres wise I’m hoping to do 2 passes of fungicide on 1200 acres of corn a year and 1 to 2 pass on beans with foliar/fung/insect.
So 5000 acres a year total. 1200 at a time. Hoping to do each pass in a full week and still live life/work in between some.
What are some options I’m not aware of and should be considering? Id be new to a drone and want local dealer at least semi local for fixing crashes and questions/demo. So not interested in someone’s smoking deal 500 miles away. |
