🇨🇦 CANADA — DJI T100/T70P Lift Sling & Hook Requirements: 10–15 m Rope, ≥8 mm Diameter & ≥500 kg Hook for Canadian Operators

🇺🇸 Reading from the United States? See the U.S. edition: DJI T100/T70P Lift Sling & Hook Guide: 10–15 m Rope, ≥8 mm Diameter & ≥500 kg Hook

This Canadian edition is written for Canadian DJI Agras operators across Canada, from the Prairie grain belt of Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba to the row crops of Ontario and Quebec and the orchards and vineyards of British Columbia and Niagara. It covers DJI's sling, hook and ground-crew requirements: 10–15 m length, 8 mm minimum diameter and a hook rated to at least 500 kg. The procedure, specifications and warnings below are identical to the original edition linked above — the hardware does not change at the border. What changes for a Canadian operator is the regulatory and purchasing context: the DJI Agras T100 or T70P falls into Transport Canada’s medium RPAS class (25–150 kg) and flies within visual line of sight on an Advanced Operations pilot certificate under the November 2025 rules, with a Special Flight Operations Certificate for anything outside that envelope; spraying follows provincial applicator licensing and Health Canada PMRA aerial label directions, and pricing is shown in Canadian dollars. Ares Acres stocks T100 and T70P lift cables, hooks and lift accessories referenced in this guide as genuine DJI Agras OEM parts, ships them to Canada with free standard shipping, and shows CAD pricing at checkout.

The sling and hook are the mechanical connection between the aircraft and the cargo, so DJI gives explicit replacement requirements instead of leaving operators to choose an arbitrary rope. This article isolates those rigging requirements and the crew-clearance rules that apply during loading and unloading.

Quick Answer: Before every use, make sure the sling and hook are secure. Replace a visibly worn or cracked sling immediately. DJI specifies a sling length of 10-15 m, diameter of at least 8 mm, and material of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or aramid fibre; high-strength polyester can be used as the inner core. The hook must withstand a pulling force of at least 500 kg.

Sling length: 10 to 15 metres

DJI's replacement requirement is 10-15 m. This range becomes important later in the operating procedure because the recommended descent and crew-clearance distances may need to be adjusted according to actual sling length and the surrounding environment.

Minimum sling diameter: 8 mm

The manual specifies a diameter of ≥8 mm. If a replacement sling is visibly worn, cracked or otherwise damaged, replace it instead of continuing the operation.

Approved sling material types

DJI identifies ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or aramid fibre. It adds that high-strength polyester can be used as the inner core.

Hook requirement: at least 500 kg pulling force

The hook must withstand a pulling force of ≥500 kg. This is a hook-strength requirement from the manual, not a statement that the aircraft should carry a 500 kg payload.

Secure the cargo and keep the sling untangled

After loading, make sure the cargo is properly secured and that the sling is not tangled or knotted. After ground operations are complete, the ground crew must move to a safe area before the aircraft continues the task.

Ground crew: at least 6 m away

DJI requires the ground crew to maintain a safe distance of at least 6 m from the aircraft. Do not load or unload cargo while directly underneath the aircraft.

Wear a helmet

The preflight section says to always wear a helmet during the operation. Treat this as part of the lift-system operating setup, not merely a recommendation for the person holding the remote controller.

T100 replacement hardware

For the T70P, the verified store path is the T70P OEM Lifting System and the DJI T70 Parts collection. This article does not claim the T100 hook or rope material numbers are exact T70P replacements without a verified cross-model match.

Yes. Ares Acres ships genuine DJI Agras OEM parts, including T100 and T70P lift cables, hooks and lift accessories referenced in this guide, to Canada with free standard shipping, and Canadian customers see CAD pricing at checkout.

Do I need an SFOC to fly the DJI Agras T100 or T70P in Canada?

Not for every operation. Under Transport Canada’s November 2025 rules, the DJI Agras T100 or T70P falls into the medium RPAS class (25–150 kg) and can be flown within visual line of sight on an Advanced Operations pilot certificate; a Special Flight Operations Certificate is still required for operations outside that envelope, such as beyond visual line of sight or payloads Transport Canada treats as dangerous goods. Confirm current requirements with Transport Canada and your provincial regulator before operating.

Is this sling and hook selection different for Canadian operators?

No. The sling and hook selection described here is identical in every country; only the regulatory framework, the purchasing path and the units used in this guide differ. Confirm current requirements with Transport Canada and your provincial regulator before operating.
