With a dedicated fleet of Phantom 3 Professional aircraft, DJI delivered ice cream to people across Shenzhen, including a high school choir group made up of children regarded as ‘left behind’. Children are referred to as ‘left behind’ in China when their parents are compelled to work in a different city but their kids are unable to move with them. DJI, in partnership with Uber, was excited to provide ice cream and smiles to these children, free of charge!
