DJI has announced the global launch of the DJI FlyCart 100 (FC100), its next-generation aerial delivery platform designed for industrial-grade transport operations. Building on the success of the FlyCart 30, the new system offers increased payload capacity, faster battery charging, and an integrated intelligent safety suite for enhanced reliability in demanding environments. The FlyCart 100 will not be available in the United States.
“DJI continues to innovate to meet industry needs,” said Hao Jin, Head of DJI Delivery Sales. “With the next-generation DJI FC100, we built a drone that can deliver more – in payload capacity, endurance, and safety – and support more applications across more industries.”
Greater Payload Capacity with Optimized Design
The DJI FlyCart 100 can carry payloads of up to 80 kilograms, representing a major step forward in heavy-lift logistics. With a maximum takeoff weight of 149.9 kilograms, the aircraft can carry 65 kilograms for 12 kilometers in a dual-battery configuration or up to 80 kilograms for 6 kilometers using a single battery.
Its coaxial four-axis, eight-blade rotor design has been refined with an optimized aerodynamic structure, 62-inch carbon fiber propellers, and larger, higher-torque motors. These updates improve stability, lift capacity, and efficiency across varied terrains.
Ultra-Fast Charging and Enhanced Energy Management
Powering the system is a redesigned Energy System compatible with DJI’s C12000 charger and D14000iE generator for ultra-fast charging. Dual-battery hot-swapping reduces downtime, while each 41Ah battery can be pre-heated with the DJI Battery Incubator to ensure stable performance in low temperatures.
New Flagship Winch System
DJI has introduced a Flagship Winch System featuring an electric hook and 30-meter cable to streamline loading and unloading. The winch supports both automated and manual operation, maintaining a retractable speed of 1.2 meters per second for efficient handling of heavy cargo.
Intelligent Safety System and All-Weather Capability
The FlyCart 100’s Intelligent Safety System integrates LiDAR, millimeter-wave radar, and a five-direction vision array for 360-degree obstacle detection. A built-in parachute system reduces descent speed to 6 m/s in emergencies. Rated IP55 for dust and water resistance, the aircraft operates between –20°C and 40°C, can withstand 12 m/s winds, and reach altitudes up to 6,000 meters.
Integrated Software for Delivery Operations
The new DJI Delivery App enables route planning, A-B route operation, augmented-reality display, and live status monitoring. For organizations managing multiple drones, the DJI DeliveryHub platform supports centralized operation planning, resource management, and data analytics.
The DJI FlyCart 100 will be available internationally through authorized DJI Delivery dealers, with regional availability varying by market. More information is available from DJI’s website.
