What to know locally in Boksburg

Logistics and security fleets around Witfield and Jet Park wear drones hard, so batteries, propellers and motors are replaced often. Repairers in Boksburg and nearby Benoni see a lot of hard landings and fence strikes, and some can quote a service plan for business clients. Training is popular with security staff who want an RPL. Ask a battery supplier how many charge cycles a pack is rated for before it should be retired.

What people fly for in Boksburg

Boksburg's drone work follows its warehouses. Logistics parks along the R21 and around Jet Park and Witfield ask for roof inspections, yard photos and stockpile measurement, while security companies ask about patrol flights over large perimeters. The town sits next to O.R. Tambo, so the northern side, including Jet Park, is deep in controlled airspace. Further south, old mine dumps and slimes dams near Vosloorus and Parkhaven are being reclaimed, and that brings survey work. Boksburg Lake and Sunward Park suit property and event photos. Summer brings tall cumulus towers, hail and lightning, and winter brings dry cold and dust blowing off the dumps.
