Review of the new DJI FlyCart 30
Main features
- Payload Capacity : It can carry up to 30kg with dual batteries and up to 40kg with a single battery, providing flexibility for different loading needs.
- Range and speed : It offers a range of up to 16 km at full load and a maximum speed of 20 m/s, ensuring on-time deliveries over considerable distances (up to 28 km (17 miles) unladen).
- Transmission and Camera : It features DJI's O3 transmission system and an FPV gimbal camera for clear and stable live feeds, even during beyond line-of-sight (BVLOS) operations.
- Dual delivery mode : the drone is equipped with both a cargo box for direct landings and a crane system with winch for aerial launches. The winch system is equipped with a 20 meter cable for contactless deliveries in areas where landing is not possible.

Security features :
- Parachute System : An integrated parachute system opens automatically in an emergency, minimizing the risk of damage or injury.
- Obstacle Avoidance : Multi-directional obstacle avoidance technology, including front and rear active phased array radars and a dual binocular vision system, ensures safe navigation around obstacles.
- Battery Redundancy : The dual battery system provides a backup power source, improving reliability and safety during operations.
- Weather resistance : boasts an IP55 rating, operates effectively in temperatures as low as -20°C (-4°F) and as low as 45°C (122°F), and can withstand winds up to 12 m/s .
- Operational Efficiency : FlyCart 30 supports DJI's new aviation cloud platform, DJI Transport, for simplified flight planning and management. DJI DeliveryHub and DJI Pilot 2 software supports operational planning, real-time monitoring and efficient flight management.
The value of DJI FlyCart 30 lies in its innovative features designed to overcome traditional delivery challenges. Its dual delivery modes cater to a wide range of logistics applications, from urban environments where precise airdrops are needed to rural areas where traditional delivery methods are not sufficient.
- In Cargo mode , payloads are safely placed in a 70-liter case, equipped with weight and center of gravity sensors. These sensors help improve the balance and safety of the load during transport, ensuring the stability of the drone and the integrity of the items to be delivered.
- There winch mode , designed for deliveries in areas where landing may not be feasible, includes a 20m cable capable of manually or automatically retracting at 0.8m/s, supporting payloads of up to 40kg. To facilitate precise delivery, the FC30 uses AR projection to indicate the intended landing point of the load. The drone's intelligent systems adjust the flight attitude to minimize load oscillations, ensuring smooth and precise delivery.
When it comes to safety, the FC30 incorporates multiple redundancy systems, including a dual battery setup and advanced obstacle avoidance technologies. These features ensure the drone's reliability, even in difficult conditions, by providing backup systems and real-time hazard detection. It has an ADS-B receiver to alert the operator to the presence of nearby manned aircraft, improving airspace safety.

Its propellers are optimized for operations at altitudes ranging from sea level to 6,000 meters, capable of carrying a 30kg payload up to 3,000 meters. Furthermore, the drone is equipped with self-heating batteries, which guarantee constant performance even in the coldest climates. The drone's ability to deal with all weather conditions ensures reliable operation in different operational scenarios, including delivering emergency medical supplies to remote mountain villages, where the ability to operate in cold temperatures and at high altitudes ensures that help reaches those he needs it.
Efficiency is one of the FC30's strong points, from AR projection for precise dump points to dual-operator mode for an extended control range. These technological advancements simplify the delivery process, while also making it more accurate. The integration of DJI DeliveryHub with the drone improves operational planning and monitoring, providing a complete solution for modern logistics challenges. Dual operator mode allows pilots in two different positions to transfer control of the drone with a single touch, extending operational flexibility.
