DJI FlyCart 100 drones aid Nepal flood recovery, carrying supplies and bodies
Nepal's army is using four China-donated DJI FlyCart 100 drones to make 10 to 16 daily aid runs following the August 26 glacier collapse that triggered flash floods along the Nepal-Tibet border. The drones, each capable of hauling around 132 pounds per trip, have delivered food supplies and also retrieved bodies from areas inaccessible to ground crews. Nepal's disaster authority reports 1,369 deaths and more than 5,000 people still missing as of September 9.
