Agricultural Monitoring and Sample Transport
We run a 2,000-acre vineyard in Napa Valley and use the Stork for two things: flying soil samples from remote blocks to our lab, and conducting visual surveys of the vine canopy via the 4K camera. The range is incredible — we cover the entire property on a single charge with room to spare. The fixed-wing design is key because multirotors just cannot cover these distances efficiently. Payload bay fits our sample containers perfectly. The open-source ArduPilot stack let our tech lead customize waypoint missions for each block. Fantastic value at this price point compared to agricultural drone services that charge thousands per month.
