Drone spraying is revolutionizing agricultureābut beginners often underestimate the precision and planning it requires.
Here are the five most common mistakes we see among new drone pilots:
- Ignoring wind direction and speed before a spray mission.
- Using incorrect nozzle configurations for crop type.
- Skipping pre-spray calibration flights.
- Overlapping or under-spraying due to poor route planning.
- Forgetting safety zones around water sources and communities.
At PFA, our hands-on training eliminates these mistakes before they cost you a contract or damage a crop.
š¢ Tip: Always do a dry run and plan your mission digitally before taking off.
