It’s great to see DJI heavy-lift drone technology making a real impact in conservation across New Zealand.

Projects like this demonstrate how drones can safely transport equipment and supplies into remote, difficult terrain, reducing the time, cost, and risk compared with traditional methods.

Whether it’s carrying traps, tools, or other essential payloads, heavy-lift drones are opening up new possibilities across conservation, agriculture, infrastructure, and emergency response. At Ferntech, we offer both the DJI Agras and DJI FlyCart series, with different payload capabilities designed to suit a wide range of operational requirements.

A fantastic example of innovation helping protect New Zealand’s unique environment.

A simple move, a big cinematic payoff: a great little trick for creators to try. 💡

Fly backward, zoom in, and let the background do the work. The dolly zoom effect is a simple way to bring a more cinematic feel to your DJI Mavic 4 Pro footage.
