Aluminum advantages
The smart alternative to the plastic drone case
Robust
Aluminum cases are more robust and durable than plastic cases. They can withstand shocks and impacts better and protect the drone from damage better.
Waterproof
All ZARGES boxes are splash-proof as well as waterproof and dustproof in the IP 67 version. Especially in humid or dusty environments, waterproof and dustproof storage is essential to protect the drone and its components from damage.
Safe
Aluminum more resistant than plastic, which makes it more difficult to break into the box or break it open. Nevertheless, aluminum is lightweight, so no compressions in weight need to be made. ZARGES locks can be secured with a standard U-lock to protect the contents from theft or unauthorized access.
Sustainable
Aluminum is a durable material that can last for years without breaking or scratching. Plastic cases, on the other hand, can become brittle and break or crack over time. Even if the drone has already been retired, the K470 universal case can be put to many other uses.
What to consider when choosing the optimal drone protection box?
- What must the drone box withstand? Where do I want to use the drone? Will the drone box be exposed to a lot of shock, dust and moisture? How dustproof and waterproof do I want the drone case/crate to be?
- What all should go into the case to transport the drone? What needs to be considered when making the foam equipment to really protect all the equipment like drone remote control, drone batteries and drone camera?
- Portable or rollable? How heavy is the drone with accessories? Can the case be carried, or does it need to be rollable?
ZARGES offers a variety of transport packaging for traveling and transporting drones. Drone cases, drone boxes, drone boxes, with ingerated wheels or without - with the right, individual foam equipment for drone and accessories, we have the right box for almost every drone format.
Drone case, drone backpack, drone box - what is the best for drone transportation?
The selection of transport packaging and protective packaging for drones is as diverse as the selection of drones. Drone backpacks are well suited for quick, light transport of smaller drones. The protection against weather and external impacts is rather low. Plastic cases and drone cases made of plastic are better protected against strong forces, but in the process they are very heavy and the environmental impact due to non-degradable plastics is high.
ZARGES aluminum boxes and cases, on the other hand, are lightweight, highly stable and virtually waterproof and dustproof. The wide range of sizes and formats of ZARGES cases, together with the matching foam equipment, make them the perfect transport packaging for drones. Comfortable carrying handles, sturdy latches and optional locks make ZARGES boxes and cases durable, robust drone boxes that last longer than a drone's life.
Transporting threats on the plane when traveling
It is a well-known fact that airlines and long-distance travelers are not necessarily squeamish about their passengers' luggage. All the better if the drone is then protected with an aluminum drone box from ZARGES.
BUT: Special regulations apply if drones and batteries are to be transported in the aircraft: Batteries of drones, quadrocopters and multicopters may only be carried in hand luggage. The batteries of drones are declared as dangerous goods and may not be carried without supervision in the cargo hold of the aircraft, because in the event that a battery ignites, boarding personnel must intervene quickly - this is not possible in the cargo hold. The best thing to do is to check with the travel company about the applicable guidelines for transporting drones in the aircraft before taking off.
Whether you fly a drone as a hobbyist or commercially, protecting your drone and accessories is essential for proper functioning at the point of use. ZARGES aluminum boxes and aluminum cases offer the ultimate protection for expensive drones. The custom foam inserts, which can be tailored specifically for each drone and accessories, provide comprehensive protection for the drone, batteries, remote controls, chargers and cameras.
