Frequently Asked
Questions

How much area can the drone cover in a day?

The amount of area we can spray in an hour mainly depends on the type of target species, as it affects the water usage.

When dealing with woody weeds like gorse and broom, we can cover approximately 2 hectares per hour. In contrast, for plant protection tasks, we can efficiently cover up to 15 hectares per hour.

How often should I have roof treatment applied?

A yearly wash is recommended for maintaining the longevity and appearance of your roof. Over time, dirt, algae, moss, and other debris can accumulate, leading to potential damage and deterioration.

Regular cleaning helps prevent the growth of harmful organisms, extends the life of your roofing materials, and enhances your home’s curb appeal.

Investing in a yearly roof wash not only protects your property but also saves you money on costly repairs down the line.

How can your drone fly with such precision?

Our drones achieve remarkable precision through a combination of advanced technology and specialized design features. Here’s how:

GPS Technology: Each drone is equipped with high-precision GPS that allows for accurate navigation and mapping of the spraying area, ensuring that every inch of the target is covered effectively.

Real-Time Data Processing: Our drones utilize onboard sensors and data analytics to adjust their flight paths in real time, adapting to changes in terrain or obstacles, which enhances accuracy.

Custom Spraying Software: We use sophisticated spraying software that allows us to create detailed maps and plans for each flight, ensuring precise application of treatments according to your specific needs.

Stabilization Systems: Our drones have advanced stabilization technology that keeps them steady during flight, even in windy conditions, which is crucial for accurate spraying.

Smaller Swath Width: By spraying with a narrower swath, our drones minimize overlap and ensure that every targeted area receives the right amount of product.

These features work together to provide a highly precise spraying service that maximizes efficiency and effectiveness in protecting your crops.

Why can drones use lower water rates?

Lower water rates play a vital role in making drone spraying efficient. Typically, we achieve spraying with only 25% of the water that a helicopter operator would need. Here’s how we do it:

Optimized Droplet Size: Our atomizers create consistent droplet sizes, which helps ensure even coverage across your crops and weeds.

Designed Specifically for Spraying: Our drones are built exclusively for spraying applications, resulting in a more uniform spray distribution.

Closer Spray Release Height: By flying closer to the ground, we enhance the effectiveness of the spray and reduce waste.

Precision in Delivery: Thanks to a narrower spray swath and reduced blade interference, we can accurately target areas that need treatment.

Enhanced Penetration: With our nozzles located directly beneath the propellers, the air pressure generated effectively pushes the spray deeper into the crops and weeds.

Reduced Spray Drift: Operating at a lower altitude and minimizing interference from the blades allows our spray to remain focused where it's intended.

What certifications do you hold?

Our pilots are fully certified by the CAA, holding Part 102 licenses, Chemical Application + Agricultural ratings.

As a company we fly under a 102 exposition which outlines our processes and procedures to ensure we abide by all CAA enforced regulations.

If you have any questions about licensing or verification of our pilots, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Do you operate in all weather conditions?

We prioritize safety above all else, which means we don’t operate in wet or windy weather to minimize spray drift. If the forecast changes unexpectedly, we’ll get in touch with you to find a new date that works.

What do you need to set up safely?

Onsite, we will need safe vehicle access to a flat landing site, as well as access to water throughout the operation.

We will setup a 10x10m perimeter with signage and cones to ensure safety of those in the immediate area.

The spray plan will be provided prior to the job, and any persons around the site will be given a outline of the ongoing work to ensure safety.

What chemicals are you licensed to apply?

All our pilots are trained by CAA certified providers to ensure proper knowledge of both handling and application of agrichemicals.

Please reach out to have a chat with our team and we can discuss application rates to ensure best coverage of your target area.

What if the weather doesn't clear up for an urgent job?

We understand some jobs require deadlines and we will do what we can to meet these for you.

Early morning and late evening flights are much safer during windy periods as the winds are much calmer during these times.

If the conditions are unsafe we will hold until we get an acceptable window, this is something we will discuss with you on site.
