FAQ
Have a question about the nuWay Ag Drone Trailer?
Where are the trailers built?
The trailers are professionally built by a large-scale trailer manufacturer.
How soon can I get my trailer?
Our goal is to ultimately have a trailer available to pick up off the lot. As of May 2024 trailers have a 1-6 week waiting period.
How many acres can a drone setup cover per day?
Because agricultural drone pilots get paid per acre, an efficient setup is the difference between making a killing or just covering the cost of equipment.
Small chopped up fields: If you're spraying small chopped up fields of 20-50 acres, you may only be able to cover 300-500 acres per drone setup (2 drones + a trailer) per day. This assumes you will have some travel time and 15-25 setups/tear-downs. At 400/acres per day at a average $15/acres this would amount to $6,000/day gross.
Wide open running: If you have large wide-open fields of 100+ acres, and you are able to setup close to the fields, you may be able to hit 600-800 acres. 800 acres at an average of $15/acre is $12,000/day gross.
There's lots that goes into an efficient spray operation. You'll need an experienced pilot and have a plan for logistics like refueling, battery management, and more.
How many acres can an Agras drone spray per hour?
With an efficient trailer like the nuWay Ag trailer and an experienced pilot, an Agras drone like the T40 or T50 can cover 40 acres per hour.
Experienced drone pilots learn to minimize the time drones are not flying. After all - If the drone isn't covering acres, nobody is making money.
That's why things like the trailer and generator setup are much more important than most rookies realize.
What's the best Agricultural Drone available?
We've tried different drones. There is one clear winner - it's the Agras Drones like the T40 and T50 by DJI. Nobody else even comes close. See our comparison review of the DJI drone vs the XAG drone.
Are there any bigger drones than the T40 available?
No - not really. The T50 has some better specs but the same tank size. In 2025 or 2026 we expect to get the DJI T60 which is a big jump up in size. The FAA does not yet permit bigger drones like the T60 to fly in America yet.
How can I get leads for my new drone spray business?
There's two typical ways to approach this:
Chemical retailing companies: You could become an applicator for a chemical retailer company if they don't have their own drone division. Running an efficient drone operation is not as simple as some people think, so some chemical retailers who have their own drone division can't really cover significant acres and are looking for subcontractors to help. Remember, they need a way to apply the chemical in order to sell it. The ideal setup is where the chemical company bills the customer for the chemical and the application and then remits payment to you. It's typical for a chemical company to charge $2/acre fee for this service.
Farmers: As more and more farmers become aware of the benefits of spray drones, many of them are looking for a spray drone operator in their area. Free demos, local farm-shows, and local advertising can help you be found by farmers searching for someone in your area. Here's a good exercise: Imagine you were a farmer wanting to find a spray drone pilot - would you be able to find your company/profile online?
What kind of training do you offer?
With the purchase of every T40 or T50 drone, a one-on-one full day of training with one of our experienced pilots is included. By the end of the day you'll be confident to pull up to your first field and spray.
After purchasing your drones, our team will reach out to schedule your training.

Our Start with Ag
Invested in Ag Drones
We bought a XAG P100, and after a few months of use (that felt like banging our head against a wall) we bought a DJI Agras T40 and quickly fell in love with how easy it was to use, especially when compared with drones we had been testing.
It was what XAG was missing - the a combination of strong hardware with really slick software.
Our First Ag Season
11,000 acres
In our first season, our team sprayed 11,000 acres in just 24 days.
We bought what we thought was a top-of-the-line trailer setup and wanted to like it, but very quickly it become a very frustrating experience.
It felt like it had been designed by a trailer manufacturer, not a custom applicator with real-world experience.
Planning for our next Season
Design Starts
Immediately after finishing up the season, we started brainstorming what the ideal spray trailer would actually look and function like.
We spent tens of thousands of dollars working alongside custom weld shops to design the spray trailer that would want to use.
The 2024 Season
Production Begins
In January 2024 we partner with a established trailer manufacturer that has produced hundreds of thousands of trailers over the last decade.
After working through final details, in March of 2024 production of one trailer a week begins.
With the help of our manufacturing partner, we can quickly scale up to meet demand. We're excited for the future.
