Western Cape notes on drones & gear

Cape Town has many camera drone sellers in Century City, Claremont and the northern suburbs, and buyers often want compact drones that cope with the south-easter. Wine and fruit farmers in the Hex River Valley, Ceres and Grabouw compare mapping and spray drones for steep blocks. Film crews buy and rent cinema drones and FPV drones for car and action scenes. Second-hand drones change hands often, so ask for proof of purchase and the flight log.

Western Cape from the air

The Western Cape has the country's busiest film and photography trade, and drones feature in many shoots, from adverts on the Atlantic seaboard to wine farm marketing in Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. Farmers use drones to map vineyards, orchards and Swartland wheat, and to spray where approvals allow. Saldanha Bay, Cape Town harbour and large building sites add inspection and survey jobs. Airspace needs care: Cape Town International, George Airport and the Ysterplaat, Langebaanweg and Overberg air force bases all matter, Koeberg power station is a key point, and Table Mountain National Park is closed to drones. The summer south-easter and winter cold fronts decide most flying days.
