Talos Drones
Talos T60X
The Talos T60X carries 50 liters (upgradeable to 60 L) and is priced from $17,899, undercutting the DJI T50 pre-tariff price. Launched February 2025 by US company Talos Drones. Manufacturing origin and NDAA compliance are unconfirmed. Several key specifications (battery, charge time, wind resistance, IP rating) are not published.
The Talos T60X launched in February 2025 as Talos Drones first proprietary spray platform, positioning itself as a direct competitor to the DJI Agras T50 at a lower price point. The 50-liter tank (upgradeable to 60 liters) and 80-liter (60 kg / 132 lbs) dry hopper provide payload capacity comparable to the T50. Maximum swath width is 11 meters (36 feet), and the dual-nozzle flow rate of 18.2 L/min (28 L/min on 4 nozzles) slightly exceeds the T50. Tri-camera obstacle avoidance is included. The key selling point is price: listed from $17,899 on sale, regular $20,999. Talos Drones is a US company that also serves as an authorized DJI dealer, but the T60X manufacturing origin and NDAA compliance status are unconfirmed. Battery specifications, charge times, wind resistance and IP ratings are not published on the Talos product page.

Frequently asked questions
Talos Drones is a US company, but the T60X manufacturing origin is unconfirmed. NDAA compliance has not been published. If NDAA compliance matters for your contracts, confirm directly with Talos before purchasing.
Tank capacity is comparable (50L vs 40L, with T60X upgradeable to 60L). Flow rate is slightly higher on the T60X. Price is significantly lower at $17,899 versus $22,000 to $28,000 for a post-tariff T50. The trade-off is that several key specs (battery, wind, IP rating) are unpublished and the DJI dealer and parts network is far larger.
Battery specifications, energy capacity (Wh), charge time, maximum wind resistance, IP rating, empty weight and MTOW are all not published on the Talos product page as of April 2026. This makes it hard to directly compare operational endurance and weather capability against DJI and Hylio.
If you are risk-tolerant and want the lowest price point for a 50-liter class drone, the T60X is worth evaluating now. If you need proven dealer support, published specs for insurance and regulatory documentation and a large operator community for troubleshooting, the DJI T50 or Hylio AG-272 are safer choices in 2026.
Talos Drones offers dealer support and warranty through their nationwide network. They also serve as an authorized DJI dealer, so their service infrastructure handles both brands. Check warranty terms specific to the T60X versus their DJI Agras offerings, as coverage may differ.
