What these figures mean in practice

Our reading of the specifications above. These are not manufacturer claims — every number below is derived from the table, and the trade-offs are ours.

Why this page is short

Hylio publishes two numbers for the Atlas: tank capacity and the application rate it is built around. No weight, no dimensions, no rotor count, no flow rate, no endurance, no battery. We are not going to fill those rows from a brochure, a reseller listing or a press write-up, so the page stays short. The configurator on Hylio's site and a direct conversation with the manufacturer are the routes to the rest.

The application rate is the actual product decision

8–10 gal/acre is 75–94 L/ha, which is a high rate for drone application — several times the ultra-low-volume rates the XAG and DJI efficiency claims assume. That is what the 30 and 50 gallon tanks are for. A 50 gal (189 L) load at 9 gal/acre covers about 5.6 acres, or a shade over two hectares, per fill. If your programme needs that much water on the crop, tank volume stops being a convenience and becomes the whole specification.
