Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about drone spraying regulations, drone lifting and buying an XAG drone.
Is drone spraying legal in New Zealand?
Yes. Commercial drone spraying in New Zealand is regulated under CAA Part 102. KC Drone Solutions operates under Part 102 certification, so every spraying, spreading and lifting job is fully compliant and insured.
How does drone spraying compare to traditional ground or helicopter spraying?
Drones leave no wheel tracks or crop compaction, can access steep, wet or hard-to-reach ground, and apply chemical more precisely than blanket ground spraying — often at a fraction of helicopter hire cost.
What can XAG drones spray or spread in one load?
The XAG P150 Max carries an 80L spray tank with flow rates up to 46L/min, or a 115L spreading hopper moving up to 300kg of granular product per minute, with spray widths up to 10 metres per pass. See the XAG P150 Max page for the full specs.
What is drone lifting and how much weight can it carry?
Drone lifting uses a heavy-lift drone carrying loads on a sling line with a smart auto-release hook. Our XAG P150 Max with RevoSling module can lift up to 80kg on a line of up to 15 metres, offering a faster alternative to scaffolding or crane hire for suitable loads. See our Drone Lifting page for details.
Can I buy an XAG drone directly from KC Drone Solutions?
Yes — we are an authorised XAG reseller for the Wairarapa and Wellington region, offering sales, demos, setup and after-sales support for the XAG P150 Max.
How much does the XAG P150 Max cost?
P150 Max packages start at just $48,500 + GST. Enquire for more price options and package configurations to suit your operation, or see the P150 Max page for full specs.
Can a drone spray gorse on steep hill country?
Yes — gorse and weed spraying on steep or hard-to-reach country is one of the strongest use cases for drone spraying. The drone works slopes and gullies that ground rigs can't safely reach, and with AI weed detection mapping we can spot-spray individual gorse bushes rather than blanket-spraying the whole block. See our Ag Spraying & Spreading page for details.
What areas do you service?
We are based in Martinborough and regularly work across Featherston, Masterton, Carterton, Greytown and the wider Wellington region, with larger contracts considered further afield.
Do you carry insurance?
Yes — we operate as a CAA Part 102 certified business with appropriate insurance cover for commercial drone operations.
