Production Spray Drone, Built in Texas.
The Hylio ARES (HYL-150) is a serious commercial spray drone designed and built from the ground up at Hylio HQ in Richmond, Texas. It is the platform that pulls together a decade of ag-drone experience into one airframe: heavy payload, serviceable components in the field, and the AgroSol Ground Control Software that lets one operator fly a swarm.
If you are running real production work and need an American made aircraft that will not leave you waiting on a parts container ship, the ARES is the answer.

🛡️ Safety That Works in the Real World
- Hylio Radar Sphere: True 360 degree millimeter wave radar avoidance. The aircraft sees obstacles in any direction, in dust, smoke, or low light, where camera based systems give up.
- Smart Tank Telemetry: Real time payload weight, flow rate, and level data so you know exactly what you have applied and what you have left without guessing.
- 1080p HD FPV: Stable 3-axis gimbal camera feed for real time visual monitoring while you fly.
🎯 Three Application Modes, One Airframe
- Hydraulic Nozzle Spray: The high flow option for general herbicide, fungicide, and insecticide work. Push 8 GPM and lay it down on row crops, pasture, and forestry blocks.
- Atomizer Spray: Tighter droplet control for fungicide work, fine canopy penetration, and applications where droplet size affects efficacy.
- Granular Spreader: Swap to the 20 gallon hopper for fertilizer, seed, and cover crop. Cover up to 120 acres per hour at 20 pounds per acre.
🚀 Designed for Real Operators
- Built to Be Serviced: The ARES is engineered to be fixed in the field. Components are accessible, modular, and stocked at Hylio HQ in Texas. No three week parts orders from overseas.
- Ergonomic Form Factor: The drone folds down to a manageable 45 inch footprint and one operator can deploy it without a second crew member.
- Swarm Ready: Run multiple ARES under a single AgroSol controller. Scale your spray operation without scaling your headcount.
- 15,000 Foot Operating Altitude: The ARES has performed at elevations that ground a lot of competing aircraft.
🇺🇸 American Made and NDAA Compliant
- Built in Richmond, Texas: Designed, engineered, and assembled at Hylio HQ. US and global parts.
- NDAA Compliant: Eligible for federal, state, and USDA programs that require an NDAA aerial platform.
- Domestic Support: Service, training, and parts handled stateside. Get a real human on the line when you need help.
🌾 Ideal Applications
- Row crop herbicide, fungicide, and insecticide passes
- Pasture and rangeland weed control
- Forestry release spraying and treatment
- Granular fertilizer and cover crop seeding
- Custom spray operators serving multiple farms
- State, federal, and university programs requiring NDAA compliant aircraft
📋 Licensing Requirements
Commercial agricultural spray drone operations in the US require FAA Part 107 certification, an FAA Part 137 agricultural aircraft operator certificate, and applicable state pesticide applicator licensing. Hylio bundles regulatory documentation and FAA consulting with every aircraft. Drone Spray Pro can connect you with our recommended training partners and walk you through the Part 137 process if you are starting fresh.
💡 Drone Spray Pro's Take
The ARES is the smart middle ground in the spray drone market. It is big enough to take real production work seriously, with 70 acres per hour at 2 GPA on the liquid side and 120 acres per hour as a granular spreader. It is small enough that one operator can pull it out of the truck, deploy it, and get to work. What sells us on the ARES is the engineering philosophy: serviceable parts, US made airframe, and a software stack (AgroSol) that turns one operator into a fleet. Hylio has been doing this for a decade. The HYL-150 is what they built once they knew exactly what an operator actually needs in the field. If you are tired of supply chain games and want a serious drone that you can fix when something goes wrong, this is your aircraft.
