Frequently asked questions.

Q: Do I need a license to fly a spray drone?
Yes. In the U.S., all commercial spray drone operators must have a Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate from the FAA. If your drone weighs more than 55 lbs (like the DJI Agras T40, T50, or XAG P150), you’ll also need a Section 44807 exemption.

Q: Do I need a pesticide applicator license in North Carolina?
Yes. North Carolina requires an Aerial Pesticide Applicator License for anyone spraying crops with a drone. We guide you through this step as part of our training and support.

Q: Do you provide training when I buy a drone?
Yes. Every drone purchase from Southeast Drone Solutions includes hands-on training. We’ll teach setup, spraying, flight planning, and maintenance so you’re confident on day one.

Q: Do you sell parts and accessories?
Yes. We stock DJI and XAG parts, batteries, tanks, pumps, and accessories so you don’t lose time waiting on shipments.

Q: Do you offer trailers for spray drones?
Yes. We build and sell custom spray drone trailers designed for hauling, charging, and operating drones efficiently in the field.

Q: Do you cover both North and South Carolina?
Yes. We serve farmers across North and South Carolina and can travel for on-farm training or service.

Q: Do you repair spray drones?
Yes. We provide repair services and field support for DJI and XAG spray drones to keep you flying during the season.

Q: How much can spray drones save me compared to traditional spraying?
Spray drones save money by:

  • Reducing fuel and labor costs

  • Eliminating crop damage from heavy equipment

  • Covering wet fields without ruts

Savings vary by operation, but most farmers see a return in the first season.

Q: Can I call you with questions after training?
Yes. We provide unlimited phone support. When you’re in the field and need quick help, we’re just a call away.
