I came accross one of these on my way home today, being loaded onto the back of one of those ubiquitous white light trucks that Japanese farmers use. Alas I did not see it fly. Thanks for the upload.
I wonder if it really is cost effective, or whether the farmer just wanted a neat toy!
Apprently the Yanmar AYH-3 costs about 100,000 USD (9 million yen). Which is enough to purchase ten those little white trucks, or the cost of a farm house. Another one is the Yamaha RMAX at about the same $.
Yes, come to think of it you are surely right. There was a woman and two men. I guess that they were the farming couple and the RC helicopter service provider.

@timtak1 Oh, I'm sure it's not owned by the farmer. The fertilizing is a service he purchases, just like the planter and harvester.

camera frame rate causes a slow moving "effect"
its a piston engine not turbine
I know Yamaha makes an industrial RC Heli [not for hobby] just for this purpose
with rotor blades 9 meters long9[~12fee]

looks like a turbine, not the blades giving it lift

The blades are giving it lift, and nothing else is giving it lift. frame rate of camera and rpms of heli sync to caude this illusion

Great idea! A better and more fun way to do the job.
Funny how the recording makes the blades look like they're moving really slowly too.
