On November 16-19, DroneUA held a series of demonstrations near Kyiv, where it showed two new products (V40 and P40) from the world leader in the production of spraying drones — the XAG brand. The purpose of the launches is to demonstrate how the new drones work in the field.
In total, more than 70 representatives of agribusiness attended the demonstrations, including representatives of large agricultural enterprises: "Agrain", "Agrobuilding Alliance "ASTRA", "Agroprosperis", "AGRORESURS-A", AirFarming, Binfield, MHP (Myronivskyi Hliboprodukt), "Syngenta" and others
Compared to the previous model, the XAG P40 is distinguished by an optimized design aimed at simplifying the maintenance of the equipment. The manufacturer began to pay more attention not only to the initial investment in the product, but also to how much money is needed to keep the equipment in working order.
The number of nozzles was reduced to two, and they need to be changed not once per 300 hectares, but once per 1000 hectares. Thus, the cost of the nozzle as a consumable decreased from UAH 12 to UAH 2 per hectare.
The RTK antennas have been moved to the housing and are now beam-independent. This makes them more resistant to damage in emergency situations.
The P40 is equipped with a RealTerra mapping device. Data stitching takes place directly on the drone.
Two batteries are enough to provide a non-stop spraying cycle, as one battery charges for the same amount of time as the drone flies
XAG V40 is the manufacturer's new flagship model. The unique twin-rotor configuration allows you to work faster and cover larger areas. On the technical side, the V40 has the same advantages as the P40. In addition, this model has the lowest fail rate on the market (the frequency with which the product or its component fails).
Since the pressing force is now directed to two vectors, the drone provides more efficient application of PPE, in particular, allows more productive work in gardens and tall crops.
The design of propellers consists of several modules. An improved system of fixation on the engine makes it impossible to damage the fasteners. Control in the air is carried out by additional yaw machines, which tilt the engine back and forth and maintain balance.
Thanks to the optimized design, the V40 can be folded in seconds, saving almost three times the space during transport. A folded drone can fit even in an ordinary car.
Both drones are capable of working with a productivity of up to 18 ha/h, and can also operate in swarm mode, when up to 5 drones are controlled by one operator at the same time
Thank you all for your participation and attention to our new products!
