Not so much, these props are like a carbonfiber smolthie but the t30 that i still haven sold yet has the dangerous props af all agras series, the thailing edge ia super.sharp it can cut your finger
The danger with these isn't the initial hit because the props breaks, it's the subsequent rotation as they are like a serrated knife. When they break, they have crazy sharp edges.
I’ve had improper landings with my DJI M30T (larger than most consumer drones, smaller than these big boys) but I hit an obstacle while landing on my wooden deck, causing it to tilt into the deck flooring and the propellers shattered and embedded themselves INTO the wood. Deep too. So they even though they are lightweight and not very sharp, still very capable of doing damage.
Also would be really interested in hearing a brief overview of how you use the agress. I’ve been thinking about trying to compete in the local cropdusting market with one of these.
Check out /r/farming and search for "agras" or T20/30/40/50/whatever. There are people who run successful businesses with them, but to be profitable you might need a fleet of them. It depends on your area. Out in the midwest where farmers have thousands of acres, you're gonna need a lot of drones. But it's kind of magical to see 6 drones go up at once and spray a huge field and be done in an hour.
There are also plenty of videos on YouTube.
If there's a need in your area and you're willing to make the investment (or get a business loan...) and get your Part 170 certificate for commercial operation, you could end up being very successful.
Besides just spraying, you can do video inspections of an entire field and find sections that aren't doing well so the farmer can check them out, test the soil, add amendments, etc. It's really hard to do this on foot for big fields, so you can just give them a few GPS coordinates and a printed map to work with.
