that is cool seams wise no air port needed if it crashes so what and it can probably fly lower that has to be better ....

seen those before. didnt know yanmar had one. mostly used in japan for rice.

yamaha has one thats available as an autonomous robot. its also found use in other non ag applications

I was going to say....Any idea how much something like that would cost? Have to be way over $50K for sure. Then I saw one of the comments...$86K ouch.... I'm wanting a larger lathe and mill and new plasma cutter myself, I think I'll just keep watching cool videos of Yanmar helicopters and save my $$$ for something I can't crash and destroy the first time I used it.:laughing:

EDIT..ooops sorry $82K...a bargain!

9 million Yen, $82,000 (plus the spray rig) for only 25kg (55 lbs) payload. From that vid's Comments. I think 9 million Yen is now over $100,000.

I'm surprised that the operator stands right next to it with the rotor spinning. I would be behind (or under!) the pickup until we see which direction it wants to go!

for 80+ thousand why not just get a manned helicopter

That did happen as kids one Christmas.Santa left me a Cox car and my Brother a Cox airplane,a Stuka. It made one circle and went straight up and came straight down and busted into a hundred pieces. Far from 82m but was worth alot to a kid back then. My parents replaced it but he didn't live that one down for years

Agreed. If I'm spending anymore than 5K on a heli, my bum is going to be in the right seat.
