Chebanse, IL.....

So application rate is flow meter controlled? If so, then ground speed is compensated for.

The point is, if the drone sprays at 20 mph in still air, then with a 10 mph tail wind, it's ground speed is 30 mph, now when it gets to the end of the field & turns around, it will have a ground speed of only 10 mph. So, a 20 mph difference going up & down the same field which affects application rate if pressure is fixed But, apparently the flow meters compensate to always adjust for ground speed and thereby adjust spray pressure.

Correct?
