Frequently Asked Questions

Below are some questions frequently asked by our customers. If you cannot find the answer you are looking for, please feel free to contact us.

How many years has crop protection with drones been developed? And what is its future prospect?

Drone-based crop protection has been actively developed for about 10–15 years, with rapid growth since the mid‑2010s when affordable multi‑rotor drones (like DJI’s MG series) entered the market. The future is very promising: precision agriculture is expanding, labor shortages increase, and drones offer efficiency, reduced chemical use, and access to difficult terrain. With ongoing AI, autonomy, and battery improvements, the market is expected to keep growing strongly worldwide, especially in Asia, the Americas, and Europe.

Can I use DJI XAG Agras Drone to spread seeds?

Yes, you can spread Solid dry particles with a diameter of 0.5 to 5 mm. To spread the urea fertilizer, the work efficiency is 1ton/hour.

Is that easy to operate the DJI XAG Agras drone?

DJI XAG drone sprayer is equipped with a user-friendly control interface through its powerful technical support, making operation simple and intuitive. Ordinary farmers can operate it easily.

What happens when the DJI drone encounters an obstacle? is it safe?

There are two types of obstacle avoidance functions for the T40 drone, which are orbiting and hovering. You can set them on the remote control yourself. This automatic obstacle avoidance system can avoid obstacles in the flight path in time, greatly reducing various losses caused by operational errors.

What are the recommended settings for spraying height, speed, and droplet size, and spray width?

We recommend a spraying height of 2-3m (optimal 2.5m), a spraying speed of 5-7m/s, a droplet size of 110 microns, and a width of 4m.

Why can't the motor of the spray drone rotate, and it feels a lot of resistance trying to manually rotate it?

1. It may be that the three-phase wire terminal of the ESC bottom board is short-circuited, and the three-phase wire terminal needs to be expanded normally. You can use a tool to increase the distance between the three terminals during installation. 2. It may be the problem of the motor or the connecting wire. Check whether the related circuit of the motor is connected normally. You can exchange it with another motor accessory and cross-check.

Which is better for crop protection, DJI or XAG?

Both have their strengths. DJI offers a more mature ecosystem, better integration with consumer drones, and smoother flight control software (e.g., the Agras series). Its global support and parts availability are wider. XAG focuses on specialized agricultural solutions, such as its variable-rate spraying system, intelligent RTK network, and dual‑rotor designs (like the V series) that produce stronger downwash for dense crops. XAG also leads in spreading dry materials. In short: choose DJI for easy adoption, proven reliability, and global service; choose XAG for crop‑specific precision and innovative farming features. Neither is universally “better” – it depends on your terrain, crops, and local support.
