All flight and treatment data is seamlessly stored in your account, giving you instant access to as-applied maps, maintenance records, and additional insights through our user-friendly interface.
Obstacle Avoidance Radar
The AG-272 features multiple wide-angle radar sensors oriented laterally, upward, and downward. This configuration provides nearly full spherical coverage, ensuring comprehensive detection and avoidance of obstacles.
HD FPV Video Streaming
Featuring an integrated high-definition camera, the UAS provides live video streaming to the Hylio GroundLink Controller. This setup enables operators to monitor operations in real-time with exceptional clarity.
Long Range Radio
The Hylio GroundLink Controller is equipped with a built-in 2.4 GHz radio telemetry modem, enabling direct communication with one or multiple Hylio UAS without requiring an internet connection.
RTK Compatible GPS
The AG-272 is equipped with dual GPS units that support RTK correction data. Please note that the RTK ground station component is sold separately.
Drone Toolkit
This comprehensive tool bag is designed to equip operators with all the essential tools needed for UAS operation and maintenance. It includes a torque wrench, pliers, various screwdrivers, a digital level, and additional indispensable items.
Handheld GPS Marker
This proprietary handheld GPS device seamlessly integrates with AgroSol, allowing operators to efficiently mark field boundaries, obstacles, and other significant landmarks.
Hylio GroundLink Controller
The AG-272 features Hylio’s proprietary GroundLink Controller, an all-in-one, NDAA-compliant ground station solution designed and built in-house. It integrates a rugged, ergonomic controller with a 13.3-inch Windows-based tablet and a 2.4 GHz radio, enabling seamless access to both autonomous and manual controls from a single platform.
Smart LiPo Batteries
The AG-272 utilizes two high-capacity 42 Amp, 51.8V (2175.6 Watt/hr) lithium-polymer batteries operating simultaneously to power the system. Each battery is equipped with LED indicators that display its charge state.
Automatic LiPo Chargers
These two-channel lithium polymer battery charging units are designed to charge two batteries simultaneously. Each charger can complete a charge cycle for a pair of batteries in approximately 30 minutes. Please note that the actual charge rate depends on several factors, including the voltage and capacity of the power source, ambient temperature, and the level of battery discharge. Engineered for industrial operations, these chargers feature a rugged, ergonomic design to ensure durability and ease of use.
Access to AgroSol Software
The purchase includes lifetime access to Hylio’s proprietary agricultural UAS ground control software, AgroSol. Operators can utilize the basic features of AgroSol without any recurring fees, ensuring ongoing, cost-effective support for their operations.
Comprehensive Training
Purchase includes full access to an extensive suite of training materials, featuring video tutorials and detailed written documentation. These resources cover UAS maintenance and handling, precision agricultural techniques, UAS regulations, and safety protocols.
Domestic Delivery
Purchase includes freight delivery to any location within the continental United States. Additional charges apply for international shipping.
Unlimited Remote Support
Hylio is committed to customer success by offering unlimited remote technical support. Our diverse team of experts in agriculture, engineering, and computer science is available via phone, email, and video chat during normal business hours—Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM Central Time—to promptly address any technical needs.
One Year Warranty
Purchase includes a one-year warranty covering component defects that are the manufacturer’s responsibility. Please contact us for detailed information on warranty terms and conditions.
FAA Regulatory Onboarding
Hylio supports your Part 137 onboarding as a complimentary service with any Hylio UAS purchase. We provide comprehensive guides and sample documents for every step of the process. You’ll need to submit your application to your local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) and eventually participate in an interview/test with FAA officials to finalize your application. Although recent FAA updates in 2023 have expedited the process, it can still take several months, so starting early is advisable.
