The DJI FlyCart series represents a lineup of delivery drones developed by the Chinese tech company DJI.
Design and development
The FlyCart 30, the first in the series, was unveiled in China in August 2023 and saw an international release by January 2024. This octo-quad multirotor drone features a foldable design with eight motors—two mounted on each arm—and is derived from the Agras T50 platform. It supports a maximum payload when utilizing two batteries, which can be increased by removing one battery. Its avionics suite incorporates visual obstacle detection, phased array radars facing both forward and backward, along with an ADS-B receiver. The drone offers IP55-rated protection and is outfitted with an emergency parachute system. Payload delivery can be accomplished via a cargo container or a winch mechanism for operations that do not require landing. The FlyCart 30 includes a gimbal-stabilized camera and employs O3 video transmission technology. Powered by up to two 38000 mAh DB2000 batteries, it can fly for 29 minutes without load or 18 minutes when fully loaded.
In June 2025, DJI expanded the lineup with the introduction of the larger FlyCart 100, which received FCC certification concurrently with the Agras T100. This model can carry payloads up to 80 kg (176 lb) using a single battery or 65 kg (143 lb) with two batteries installed. Its obstacle avoidance capabilities were enhanced by adding lidar and fisheye lens sensors, complementing existing visual and radar systems. The video transmission was upgraded to O4 standard, and it is powered by up to two DB2160 batteries.
Operational history
In April 2024, DJI performed a delivery demonstration using the FlyCart 30 at Mount Everest, successfully transporting supplies from South Base Camp to Camp 1 under freezing conditions, followed by a return trip carrying waste materials.
In January 2025, the Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand (CAA) issued an advisory to operators of the FlyCart 30 and Agras T50 models concerning a manufacturing flaw that could lead to delamination of the composite arms. Operators were instructed to conduct visual inspections of these arms every six months.
