- Airframe: X6 folding carbon architecture sized for large‑diameter props; light‑rain tolerant; chemical‑resistant plumbing.
- Performance (Targets): Payload 40 L liquid; 12–18 min spray endurance (conditions dependent); 25–30 min ferry; operational wind up to ~10 m/s sustained.
- Spray System: Modular quick‑lock tanks; closed‑loop flow/pressure control; configurable nozzles and swath width for even coverage and drift reduction.
- Avionics & Autonomy: Redundant‑grade flight control; RTK‑grade positioning; radar‑assisted height keeping and terrain following; geofencing and link‑loss behaviors; optional obstacle awareness pods.
- Communications: Long‑range RC; telemetry uplink; optional LTE backhaul for remote support and job logs.
- Safety & Compliance: Optional recovery parachute; VLOS/night marker lighting; documentation pack for Part 137; roadmap toward emerging Part 108 BVLOS frameworks.
- Supply Chain & Openness: Major subsystems sourced from the U.S. and allied suppliers to support NDAA‑aligned builds. Built on ArduPilot; Liberty Aerotech will open‑source our custom avionics libraries to promote transparency and interoperability.
LA‑Q20 Medium‑Lift Quadcopter — 12–15 L Spray Class.
- Mission Profile: Spot treatments, smaller fields, research plots, and perimeter work; single‑operator deployment.
- Airframe: X4 folding carbon frame sized for mid‑diameter props; sealed connectors; field‑serviceable modules.
- Performance (Targets): Payload 12–15 L; 15–22 min spray endurance; 28–35 min ferry with light payload; operational wind up to ~8 m/s sustained.
- Spray System: Single modular tank; closed‑loop metering; compact fold‑out boom options for ~4–6 m swath.
- Avionics & Autonomy: Pro‑grade flight control; RTK‑ready positioning; radar‑assisted height keeping; optional forward obstacle awareness pod.
- Communications: Long‑range RC and telemetry; optional LTE backhaul for fleet monitoring.
- Safety & Compliance: Optional compact parachute; VLOS lighting kit; Part 137 documentation templates.
- Supply Chain & Openness: U.S. and allied‑origin major components available for NDAA alignment. Built on ArduPilot with Liberty Aerotech open‑sourcing avionics libraries.
LA‑QS10 Crop‑Surveillance Quad — 6″ Class Scout.
- Mission Profile: Rapid crop scouting, stress/disease spotting, fence/field checks, mapping; truck‑bed deploy; waypoint or manual.
- Airframe: Compact X4 with folding arms; endurance‑optimized; weather‑resistant harnessing.
- Performance (Targets): Endurance 20–35 min depending on payload; practical wind operations up to ~7–8 m/s.
- Sensing: Swappable imaging payloads (visible; lightweight action/compact cameras); optional sub‑250 g multispectral.
- Avionics & Autonomy: Pro‑grade flight control with grid/waypoint missions; RTK‑ready positioning; geo‑fence and RTH failsafes.
- Communications: Long‑range RC & telemetry suitable for field ops; optional cellular backhaul for data sync.
- Safety & Compliance: VLOS lighting; configurable geofences; operations guidance aligned with Part 107 and ag use cases.
- Supply Chain & Openness: Preference for U.S. and allied sourcing on major subsystems; ArduPilot‑based; Liberty Aerotech to release avionics libraries as open‑source.
Key Capabilities
Heavy lift, NDAA alignment, autonomy and safety, precision application, BVLOS roadmap, and a pay‑per‑job service model.
NDAA‑Aligned Sourcing
U.S. & allied‑origin major subsystems with documented provenance.
Open‑Source Core
Built on ArduPilot; our avionics libraries will be published open‑source.
Heavy Lift
Target payload up to 40 L with stable flight dynamics and wind margins.
Autonomy & Safety
RTK‑grade positioning, radar‑assisted height control, geofencing, link‑loss behaviors.
Precision Application
Closed‑loop flow/pressure control and configurable swath for drift reduction.
BVLOS Roadmap
Optional awareness pods, ADS‑B‑in, and UTM hooks for emerging Part 108.
Born from Engineering. Built for Agriculture.
Indiana‑based team building agricultural UAVs for America’s farmland.
- 2019–2024: R&D and prototyping in agricultural spraying platforms.
- 2025: Commercial launch prep with pilots in Indiana & Illinois.
- Next: NDAA‑aligned builds and BVLOS‑ready autonomy modules.
Our Business Model
Liberty Aerotech delivers more than just aircraft — we deliver complete, results‑driven UAV spraying missions. Our service model is simple and effective:
- We provide a state‑of‑the‑art UAV with the right specifications for your job.
- Our team arrives on‑site, sets up the mission, and provides an FAA Part 107 & Part 137‑licensed Pilot‑in‑Command.
- We stay on‑site until the job is done — no hourly cut‑offs, no half‑measures.
- You pay for the service, not for ownership or leasing of the UAV.
- We work directly with farmers or as a subcontractor to professional spraying services.
This approach brings advanced aerial spraying to clients without requiring investments in aircraft, training, and licensing. You get a fully compliant, professionally operated aircraft — ready to execute your mission efficiently and safely.
How It Works
From consultation to training, we support the entire lifecycle.
1) Consultation
Evaluate acreage, crops, chemicals, and operational goals. Define payload and autonomy needs.
2) Build & Configure
Select airframe, payloads, power, and control systems. Integrate RTK‑ready and safety modules.
3) Delivery & Training
On‑site setup, operator training, maintenance planning, and support onboarding.
