Appreciate the ⁦@capitaljournal�� and Liz Quinn for doing this write up on our family farm! The generations before us would really get a kick out of where we are now https://t.co/FIZyTnldI8

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

Happy birthday to this fireball! 3 already!

@josh_sayler Looks like perfect math to me! Doesn’t help with the heart rate tho

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

Racing to beat the rain! We definitely need it 🌧️

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

GoPro coming in clutch again! I’m sure there are other wireless camera systems out there that can do this, but this is pretty slick for loading up sunflowers! 🌻

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

@CNagel16 The big one has a 280lb lift capacity so we’ll be good there

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

Pretty cool to see these things up close! Wonder if this is the future of Ag spraying

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

@Matthiesen21 Also really don’t understand why DJI is getting all the press… pretty sure both XAG and DJI are both Asia originating companies… as far as the licensing goes I’d like to see the process of obtaining one become a little easier to understand straightforward

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

Yep would definitely keep ours around for GPA and fert work. The group that was demoing them today was a XAG dealer… the 2 quotes we got today were 37k for their P100 kit with and 47k for their P150 batteries included in that whole deal… supposedly DJI gettin booted from the US? The biggest thing I’m wondering about is the licensing to fly these things and the requirements to do it

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

Definitely don’t see them going away…would love to see them with bigger tanks and longer battery life. I think right now we’re a little low on the efficiency side to justify owning one, at least on our farm, but supposedly they’ve got some bigger drones coming down the pipeline. Can’t wait to see em

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]

@Matthiesen21 ^^^

[Lewis Hofer @lewhofer]
