Are drones expensive

Arthur Erickson is co-founder of Helio Drones, a company that develops and manufactures agri drones in the U.S. Like other drones, large payloads can be delivered to fields so I had a question. So talk to me about cost. Is it prohibitive? Cost is absolutely not prohibitive for these drones, probably 2 to 3 times cheaper than a traditional equivalent piece of equipment. A high boy like Hadji sprayer, for example. You're buying used. You're looking at at least $250 to $300 grand new. It's 400 grand or more. So what the Haggie high voice sprayer It depends on what you're doing, but you can get several hundred acres a day sprayed with that, maybe 500 plus. The thing is you could get the same equivalent production with three of our drones and be only out about $120,000. So instead of spending three 5400 K, you're spending 100 120 again like a quarter of the cost or so and you're still getting that productivity. And in a lot of ways it's apples to oranges, too, because the drones can do stuff that the Haggie can't. Drones can go out when it's wet. The drones can go out when it's high. Even if you have a high clearance sprayer, often it's hard to get corner areas or tree lines or fence lines, and the corn can even shoot out a lot of clearance on some of these ground rigs. So it's definitely not cost prohibitive. In fact, it's the opposite. It could save you a lot of money and it's a valid option. People have been using them for years now. This isn't something that's theoretical. This is right now. Speaker1: All right. Now, thing interesting. Speaking of interesting, if you're interested, Google, Twilio, Helio, drones.
