Use this page in the TJ Aerosense unpublished website build to compare model fit, real operating experience and complete-system requirements.

The best spray drone is not automatically the biggest one. It is the aircraft your operation can keep supplied, charged, cooled, transported and working when the application window gets tight.

Current-model note: TJ Aerosense currently sells the DJI Agras T100 and T25P in the DJI lineup. We no longer sell new T50 aircraft, but we continue to support T50 operators and the platform remains useful as a real-world size and output comparison.

How We Think About Each Aircraft

T100

The T100 is the first DJI model we evaluate for serious broadacre work and high-acre commercial application. Its value is not just speed. The larger tank gives the operator more room to keep acres per load practical as carrier volume changes.

Best question to ask:

Can the rest of the operation keep a T100 fed with water, batteries and charging all day?

T50

The T50 remains a useful benchmark because we have extensive operating experience with it. It can still be a sensible used or existing-fleet platform when a full T100-scale workflow is unnecessary.

Best question to ask:

Does the lower acquisition or infrastructure requirement matter more than the T100's additional production ceiling?

T25P

The T25P is the compact current DJI option we look at when portability, smaller fields, tighter landing areas or lower annual acres matter more than maximum broadacre output.

Best question to ask:

Would a larger aircraft actually earn its keep, or would it spend most of its life underused?

One Real TJ Aerosense Comparison

In one operating comparison, our T100 covered 3,550 acres in 38 flight hours, or about 93.4 acres per flight hour. The T50 beside it covered 1,222 acres in 27 flight hours, or about 45.3 acres per flight hour.

That was real operating data, not a controlled research trial and not a promise that every T100 will double every T50. GPA, field shape, wind, ferry distance, refill speed, charging and crew workflow can narrow or widen the difference.

What Actually Determines Acres per Hour

  • Gallons per acre and product-label requirements
  • Field size, shape, obstacles and exclusion zones
  • Distance from the refill point to the route
  • Water, mixing and refill speed
  • Battery charging and cooling capacity
  • Wind and application conditions
  • Swath width, speed, height and droplet settings
  • Pilot experience and crew workflow
  • Time spent moving between fields

Questions We Use to Size a System

  1. How many acres do you expect to spray each year?
  2. How many acres may need to be covered in the tightest application window?
  3. What GPA will the important applications require?
  4. Are the fields large and open or small and irregular?
  5. Is this for your own farm, commercial work or both?
  6. How will you transport the aircraft, water, batteries and chargers?
  7. What power source will run the charging system?
  8. How many people will normally be involved?
  9. Will you spray, spread or both?
  10. What budget is available for the complete working system, not only the aircraft?

Build the System Around the Work.

We would rather help a customer buy the right system once than sell a larger aircraft that creates a new set of problems.
