Rotor Technologies, November 16, 2024 - Nashua, New Hampshire, USA and Barrie, Ontario, Canada - Rotor Technologies, Inc., the manufacturer of the largest spray drone in the world, is partnering with AG-NAV Inc., a leader in precision navigation and flow control technology to bring automated aerial application to the Sprayhawk unmanned helicopter.
The two companies have demonstrated an integrated automated aerial application system that allows users to fly Rotor’s Sprayhawk agricultural UAV, a 110-gallon capacity unmanned Robinson helicopter, using AG-NAV’s Guia Platinum navigation
AG-NAV will be the exclusive provider of agricultural navigation solutions on Rotor’s 2025 Model Year Sprayhawk. Sprayhawks will be equipped with AG-NAV’s advanced navigation and flow control technology as standard, including variable rate spray control equipment onboard and a Guia Platinum navigation terminal in the ground control station.
Charlotte Keys, Rotor Product Manager, said “The integration of AG-NAV systems into the Sprayhawk brings precision agriculture to our aerial application customers. With access to AG-NAV’s industry-leading navigation and mission management systems, Sprayhawk operators will be able to seamlessly manage their jobs and workflows, perform in-flight spray controls just like in their manned aircraft, and optimize efficiency with precision flow control.”
The partnership will give Sprayhawk operators access to AG-NAV’s advanced mission planning software, AgMission. AgMission enables sprayers to create safe and efficient spray patterns for any type of field, input custom settings to build operations to their specific needs, and use advanced data analysis on past jobs and spray routes. This collaboration is a significant step forward in supporting aerial applicators with their precision agriculture needs.
Landon Ramirez, AG-NAV spokesman , said “At AG-NAV our mission is to always innovate as well as focus on pilot safety. So when we heard what Rotor were doing, we were really excited to work with them to further improve pilot safety as well as revolutionize the aerial application industry.”
