Drones are a hot topic these days.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, are unmanned aerial vehicles controlled by radio remote control and self-programmed controls. DJI is a leading company dedicated to advancing human technological progress.
We are proud to say that our bearings play a crucial and indispensable role in drones.

They are a key factor in ensuring high performance and reliability.


Bearings in drones have two main functions:

1. Supporting weight and acting as a support: 

Drone motors rotate at high speeds, and bearings are responsible for supporting the rotating parts and preventing the aircraft from shaking.


2. Reducing friction and ensuring smooth rotation: 

With motors rotating at such high speeds, bearings use the rolling motion of balls to convert sliding friction into rolling friction. This not only saves energy but also ensures very smooth rotation.


So, where exactly do bearings work in drones?

Inside the motor: 

The drone's power source is the motor. High-quality bearings ensure longer and more stable flight. 


Camera gimbals:

Gimbals can offset shake, ensuring more stable images. The motors in these gimbals also require bearings.


Servos and other moving parts: 

Many drone components that control direction also require bearings to ensure the drone's every command is executed accurately.


Isn't it surprising? Such a small drone uses so many bearings. 

Although they're hidden inside the fuselage, out of sight and touch, every one of them is essential. A drone's flight time, stability, and reliability all depend on these core bearings. Don't underestimate these tiny bearing components!
