009 · Rental terms · the four-point contract

Clear, signed, refundable. No surprises on return.

1 · Rental contract

Each rental enters a clear, signed contract. Upon payment, xBoom grants you the right to use the drone for the rental period — usage rights only, not ownership transfer. You return the drone in the same condition as delivered. Handle responsibly, avoid misuse, no flying in restricted Red zones without DGCA permission.

2 · Tenure

Rental duration matches the tenure you select at order. Return date is printed on the invoice. Return on or before this date in original condition. Early return does not generate a refund. To extend, contact us before the return date — extensions are approved if the drone is available.

3 · Payment

Total = rental fee + refundable security deposit + delivery / pickup charges (if applicable). Pay online during checkout or via payment link on delivery. Full payment is required before drone use begins.

4 · Damage

We inspect every drone after return. Any loss, damage or theft is the renter's responsibility — accidental or deliberate, regardless of reason. Permanent change in appearance or functionality is treated as damage; minor wear-and-tear from regular use is not.

· Damage · deposit · late return · KYC

Repairable damage

Actual repair-service cost + components used in replacement. Deducted from your security deposit. If damage is greater than the deposit, you're responsible for the balance.

Irreparable damage

70–90% of the drone's current retail price, depending on the age of the drone. After the payment, the drone stays with you.

Loss or theft

70–90% of current retail price, depending on age. Treated the same as irreparable damage for accounting.

Deposit refund

Refunded within 2 days of drone return and inspection — assuming returned in same condition as delivered.

Late return

Notify at least 48 hours before original return date for an extension. Failure to do so triggers 2× the standard rate for extra time.

KYC + Digital Sky

Mandatory KYC for every rental. We help with Digital Sky pilot registration and Yellow / Green zone flight permissions on first rental.

010 · Frequently asked

Everything else renters actually ask.

Which drones can I rent from xBoom?
Full DJI consumer, professional and enterprise lineup — Mavic 3 Pro / Classic / Cine, Mini 4 Pro / Mini 3 Pro, Air 3 / Air 2S, Avata 2 / Avata / FPV, Inspire 2 / Inspire 3, Matrice 30T / 350 RTK / 4D, Mavic 3 Enterprise / 3T / 3M. Plus Autel EVO Lite+ / II Pro / Max 4T, SwellPro SplashDrone 4 (waterproof), and HOVERAir X1. Enterprise drones (M30T / M350 RTK / 4D) typically rent with a DGCA-licensed pilot bundled.
Drone-only rental or with a pilot?
Both. Drone-only = default for consumer drones (Mini, Air, Mavic, Avata) — you fly. Drone-with-pilot = bundled for weddings, real-estate shoots, corporate events, and any enterprise drone. Project-based = multi-week / multi-month with crew. Pilot rates depend on shoot duration, location and complexity.
What rental durations do you offer?
Daily (24h, common for wedding shoots and real-estate listings). Weekend (3 days · Fri–Mon, our bestseller). Weekly (7 days, film shoots and multi-day events). Monthly (30 days, real-estate brochures and brand campaigns). Project-based (custom). Returning early does not generate a refund.
How does delivery work?
Insured doorstep delivery to any pin code in India through our logistics partners — typical 24–48 hours from quote acceptance. Drone insured in transit at retail value. Return pickup arranged at end of rental. Bengaluru locals can pick up and drop off in person at HSR Layout to skip delivery charges.
What is the deposit and damage policy?
Refundable security deposit, sized to the airframe (mini-class lower, enterprise higher). Refunded within 2 days of return-and-inspection. Repairable damage — actual repair cost + components from deposit. Irreparable damage / loss / theft — 70–90% of current retail (drone stays with you after payment). Minor wear-and-tear is not charged.
What about late returns?
Notify us at least 48 hours before the original return date for an extension. Late return without prior notice = 2× the standard rate for extra time. So a one-day overrun on a daily rental costs the equivalent of two extra days.
Do I need to be DGCA registered to rent?
For drones above 250 g, yes — Drone Rules 2021 require pilot Digital Sky registration and a UIN for the drone, plus permission for the flight zone. We help renters complete Digital Sky registration and Yellow / Green zone permissions on first rental. Nano-class (<250 g) drones operate under reduced compliance.
KYC and insurance?
KYC — PAN + Aadhaar / valid government ID for every rental. Insurance — drones insured in transit at retail value. During rental period, the renter is responsible (which is what the deposit covers). Optional rental insurance add-ons available for high-value enterprise rentals.
Can I rent a drone for my wedding?
Yes — wedding videography is a top use case. Most clients pick the Mavic 3 Pro / Classic for cinematic look or the Mini 4 Pro for indoor venues. Weekend plans cover most weddings. Many add a DGCA pilot — saves sourcing a separate operator and ensures footage delivery on time.
Can my company rent for ongoing project use?
Yes — monthly and project-based rentals are common with real-estate developers, agencies, surveying contractors, construction companies, film houses, news channels and event firms. Corporate rates, GST invoice for ITC, dedicated account manager, and AMC-grade swaps if a drone needs servicing during your rental.
