If you are willing to jump to a class 9 i would definitely recommend it the capacity difference is insane between an 8250 and 9250. Also we run 50ft macdons on the 9250s and they handle just fine. If you have the financial atuff to jump to a 9250 and fd250 i would say thag would be a great upgrade. If not u can alwys find a good 8250 and fd240 or 245

Class 9 is definitely an option. Gonna be a couple more years before we work into the 50’ headers. Dad just traded his 8240 on an 8250 with the auger for a 50’. Are the FD2 headers as good as people say they are? Was supposed to have a demo last year but it got sold

@AxiomAcres yes the fd2 are a amazing all the issues we had with out fd145s got fixed with the fd2.

Hey guys, hope you give me some opinions about the droplet size. I noticed that J100 droplet size can set below 40μm, is it an essential feature in spray drone? And, does spraying with atomization below 40 microns comply with spray drone regulations?

40 was honestly an accident. When they were showing me the features; we were gonna spray at 200 micron but then the slider bar must have gotten touched and set to minimum.

The drones themselves are legal to spray with if you get the proper qualifications, there’s not a lot of chemicals that are labeled for drone application; although they are for fixed boom aerial applications such as a helicopter or plane.

Agreed, good opportunity improvements w. certain parts of the tech. But regarding tank size- keep in mind that drones will use the water rates for the Aerial label (same amount of AI that goes in the ground label, but much less carrier/water bc of their speed). Most products are labeled 2-3 GPA which has even drones this size doing ~ 50 acres in an hour. Of course if you had to water down the AI to ground rates, these tanks wouldn't be enough.
