Polokwane notes on drones & gear

Families in Bendor and Flora Park often buy a folding camera drone for holidays and events, while mines and quarries ask about commercial drones for surveys. Farmers around Moletjie and Ga-Mothapo look at mapping drones. Heat on the plateau shortens flights, so ask about battery life in summer. Used drones from Seshego and Westenburg sellers can be good value if the battery cycle count is low.
