This big greenhouse got shaded today, with one drone and help from a skilled ground crew. The key point being, GROUND crew! Happy days.

One of those other intangible benefits British Farmers provide to the public is the ability to retrieve posh motor cars when they get stuck in river crossings

Great day on the farm yesterday. The R150 did all the heavy lifting in Follow Me Mode. 6 hours work and still 50% charged. More than me!

Apple Watch Saved My Daughter - Twice In Mar my daughter had a bad mountain bike crash. Neither of us had our phones but I did have my Apple Watch so was able to call help. @TimCooka

In Aug she complained that her watch kept waking up. She’d had 27 low heart alerts that night! After a week in hospital she’s making a great recovery. Thanks Apple!

Since visiting Harper Adams Uni, we have liaised with NATS and ARPAS. The proposal is now sitting with Govt for a decision. Would like to thank everyone for their support and hopefully the Govt will make the right decision. Drones to help fight the infection! #BBC #COVID19 #drone

Saw this on the BBC news - makes sense!
Harper Adams University is planning, if approved by Government, to offer #drone sprayer training to qualified #EmergencyServices drone pilots, to enable them to use spray drones to disinfect #COVID19 infection hotspots in the UK. Read more: harper.ac.uk/sdc1920t #coronavirus

The video also shows the time it takes to do a refill of the tank💧replace🔋 and turn the drones on. Time, simplicity, and interaction with the drone are all reduced when working with the @xag P20 vs the @DJIAgriculture Mg-1s i haven’t tried the @DJIAgriculture T16 yet
Bit windy today & demo spray @HarperAdamsUni quite drifty but simulating an area to fly spraying💦 with different drones from @XAG_official = P20 & @DJIAgriculture = Mg-1 S, cant wait to try Xag🌍 or P30 or Dji’s T16.🤖’s able to tackle #covid🦠 retweet to make this happen.

Did you see the story on @bbcmtd about how @AgRobotJon and colleagues are working together to see if #drones could be deployed to fight #coronavirus by disinfecting key areas from above? Watch again at 6.30pm #UniSupport #degreesthatmatter

Spraying contamination hotspots with disinfectant has been proven in China to cut contact transmission dramatically. Why are we waiting!
I’m no epidemiologist and no public health expert. I do believe passionately in science and also in #Factfulness. This man is the global authority on the spread of disease. If you are a leader (in any capacity) watch this. If you are not, watch it too.
The only people in the world who know how to fight Covid-19 are offering to help but the UK isn't listening. XAG Drones have sprayed 902 million square metres in China’s 20 province youtu.be/dtFlmR9zSfQ via @YouTube
