DJI Matrice 4TD (M4TD)

The all-weather thermal sentinel. The DJI Matrice 4TD pairs a 640×512 radiometric thermal camera with a fast f/1.7 night-capable wide camera and an NIR auxiliary light, an IP55 aircraft that patrols from a Dock 3 around the clock, in weather, in the dark.

Built to see everything, any hour

• 640×512 thermal camera (f/1.0) with super-resolution mode to 1280×1024, −40°C to 150°C measurement at ±2°C
• 48MP f/1.7 wide camera with night modes and IR-cut filter for black-and-white night vision
• 48MP medium tele (70mm) and 48MP tele (168mm) for standoff inspection detail
• NIR auxiliary light illuminating 100 m, invisible to the eye
• Laser rangefinder to 1,800 m for pin-dropping targets

The dock-ready airframe

• IP55-rated: flies in rain and dust that grounds the standard Matrice 4 series (which carries no IP rating at all)
• 54-minute flight time (47 min hover) from a self-heating 149.9 Wh battery rated to 400 cycles, charged 15%→95% in 27 minutes inside Dock 3
• O4+ Enterprise transmission: 25 km FCC / 12 km CE, with drone-to-drone relay: one aircraft extends another's link without 4G
• Omnidirectional vision sensing plus an optional LiDAR + mmWave radar module that detects wires as thin as 12 mm at speed
• Anti-ice low-noise propellers standard, built-in RTK, 1,800 m laser rangefinder, AI detection of people, vehicles and boats
• Dock 3 native: charging contacts and dock comms built in, or fly it standalone with the RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller

What it gets used for

• Security patrol: scheduled perimeter runs with AI detection and thermal anomaly alerts
• Search and rescue & emergency response: heat signatures in total darkness, vehicle-mounted dock deployment
• Energy inspection: powerline, substation and solar hotspot detection on autopilot
• Rural operations: night stock checks and feral animal spotting across large holdings
