Field intelligence across whole operations, without a manned aircraft.

What growers use the aircraft for

• Crop health and NDVI mapping. See stress before it shows from the road.
• Irrigation system analysis. Find the dry pivot span and the leaking line the same afternoon.
• Livestock and pasture monitoring. Count, locate, and check fence lines without a truck.
• Field survey and acreage reporting. Documented acreage and conditions for the file.

Which aircraft, and what they cost

Spector and Ranger specifications are design targets until flight testing is complete. Beyond-visual-line-of-sight flights need FAA authorization.

Why the price is the point

Manned aerial survey is priced by the hour and the season. A drone you own is priced once, and EnCor publishes the number. Imported aircraft now carry Section 232 tariffs of 25 to 100 percent, and foreign models can no longer get FCC authorization. A grower replacing a foreign fleet is choosing among US-built aircraft anyway. EnCor's are built in Tulsa, with spares at published prices and support from the manufacturer.

Start with the operators

The Corvin ships now, costs $2,999 for a complete kit, and is the aircraft to train the people who will fly the Ranger when it arrives. Detachable arms and printable parts mean the training fleet keeps flying through the learning curve.

Questions buyers ask

Which aircraft covers large acreage?

The Ranger, a fixed-wing VTOL built for long-endurance coverage with up to 2 hours of flight as a design target, is the acreage aircraft. It is in development with a published $22,000 bundle price and reservations open.

Can it map crop health?

The multi-sensor payloads on the Spector and Ranger are built for crop health and NDVI mapping, irrigation analysis, and field survey. Specifications are targets until flight testing is complete; ask in a briefing for the current sensor list.

Is there an aircraft that ships today?

The Corvin complete kit at $2,999 ships now. It is a compact reconnaissance and training aircraft with up to 22 minutes of flight, suited to checking a field, a fence line, or livestock close in, and to training the operators who will fly the larger aircraft.

Does an agricultural buyer need NDAA compliance?

Not by law for most private operations. It matters when federal or state program money is involved, when a co-op or lender asks, and now on price: imported foreign drones and components carry Section 232 tariffs of 25 to 100 percent since September 3, 2026.

Can we fly beyond the pilot's sight over our own land?

Not without FAA authorization, granted case by case today. We do not promise beyond-line-of-sight operation.
