XAG has unveiled the P150 Max, a next-generation fully autonomous agricultural drone designed to deliver a powerful balance of reliability, safety, and operational efficiency. With a larger payload, modular task architecture, and enhanced flight control, the P150 Max represents XAG’s latest advancement in practical farm automation at a time when growers are increasingly challenged by labor shortages and rising production costs.
XAG‘s P Series has led the agricultural drone market for 18 years. It boasts the largest patent portfolio globally and a solid record of success over tens of millions of hectares. The P150 Max has recorded over 9.3 million flight hours since 2022. It aims to reduce costs, enhance safety, and support long-term sustainability for producers.
Multitasking design for modern farming excellence
The P150 Max is a versatile platform. It quickly switches between spraying, spreading, field mapping, and logistics. This flexibility comes from its modular attachment system. It can carry 80 kilograms and fly at 20 meters per second. This helps it cover more ground on each mission. It also reduces the need for takeoffs and landings. Plus, it can navigate rough terrain and spots where heavy machines can’t go.

Precision spraying with unmatched efficiency
The P150 Max has the RevoSpray 5 System. It includes an 80-liter smart liquid tank and dual centrifugal nozzles. This setup provides a strong spray rate of 32 liters per minute. If you add the four-nozzle upgrade kit, the rate increases to 46 liters per minute. This ensures great coverage, even in dense orchards. Operators can customize applications for different crop types and spraying goals. They can adjust droplet sizes from 60 to 500 microns. This helps improve accuracy and cut waste.
High-speed spreading for seeds, fertilizer, and powders
For spreading operations, the RevoCast 5 System dispenses up to 300 kilograms per minute from a 115-liter smart granule container. Its vertical waving broadcast mechanism increases uniformity and resists wind interference, ensuring even distribution across large fields and irregular-shaped plots.
Autonomous field mapping for smarter decisions
The RealTerra Field Mapping System gives clear situational awareness. It maps up to 20 hectares per flight. Then, it turns high-resolution images into detailed field maps in real time. AI-powered boundary and obstacle detection helps operators plan precise routes. This makes autonomous missions safer.
On-farm logistics when conditions are challenging
Equipped with the RevoSling Module, the P150 Max functions as an autonomous transport aircraft capable of moving up to 80 kilograms of tools, farm inputs, or harvested crops across rugged or waterlogged terrain – keeping supply chains moving even where vehicles cannot operate.
Advanced autonomy and safety at the core
The drone uses the SuperX 5 Ultra Intelligent Control System. It can carry out missions on its own, achieving precision down to the centimeter. The system uses 4D imaging radar and a wide-angle FPV camera. This helps it spot irrigation pivots, power poles, and overhead lines. So, it can operate safely and steadily in complex environments.
