DJI Agras MG-1S Advanced
About the DJI Agras MG-1S Advanced
DJI Agras MG-1S Advanced is an upgraded MG-1S agricultural spraying aircraft documented in DJI’s 2018 English manual. It has a 10 L tank, weighs 9.8 kg without battery and lists 23.8 kg standard or 24.8 kg maximum takeoff weight near sea level. With the MG-12000P 12,000 mAh battery, DJI lists 20 minutes of hovering at 13.8 kg or 9 minutes at 23.8 kg. Its DLG60A controller link is rated up to 1.5 km FCC or 1 km CE/MIC/KCC/SRRC unobstructed and interference-free. The aircraft is IP43 under DJI’s stated scope; the high-precision radar module is separately IP67. DJI’s published lifecycle notice lists November 2, 2026 as its global service end date; check DJI’s current support status before planning manufacturer service.

Common Failure Modes
Symptoms: Uneven spray, blocked nozzle, pump noise or fluid leak.
Likely areas: tank, nozzles, pump, hoses and seals
Flush and inspect the fluid path with chemical-handling precautions before replacing electronics.
Symptoms: Cracked arm, loose fastener, rough motor spin or abnormal vibration after impact.
Likely areas: arms, motor mounts, propellers and landing gear
Keep the aircraft grounded until structural and propulsion checks are complete.
Symptoms: Radar warning, unstable terrain following or intermittent DLG60A link.
Likely areas: RD2412R module, wiring, antennas, controller pairing and environment
Check exact model identity, firmware and environmental conditions before selecting replacement parts.
Repair Notes
Drain and flush the spray path before service and use suitable protection for residues.
Confirm MG-1S Advanced on the aircraft label; do not infer MG-1S or MG-1P component fit from appearance.
Aircraft IP43 and radar-module IP67 are different scopes. Inspect seals and water exposure case by case.
Check the current DJI support notice and written independent-service scope before promising parts, repairability, cost or timing.
