Best Price on the DJI Matrice 4T Thermal Drone — Fast Shipping

The DJI Matrice 4T is the newest thermal enterprise drone in DJI’s lineup, and Covert Drones has it at the best price. Four cameras, a 640×512 infrared thermal sensor with UHR super-resolution to 1280×1024, 112x hybrid zoom, a laser rangefinder accurate to 1,800 meters, AI-powered object detection, and up to 49 minutes of flight time — all in a compact airframe that launches in 15 seconds. Whether you’re running thermal inspections on power lines, recovering deer after dark, or providing aerial overwatch for law enforcement, the M4T delivers enterprise-grade capability at a price point that makes sense for departments, companies, and independent operators. Fast shipping, real people answer the phone.

Choose Your Configuration

• 1-Battery Combo ($6,999.99): M4T Aircraft + RC Plus 2 Enterprise + 1 Flight Battery + Charging Hub + 100W Power Adapter + 3 Propeller Sets + Storage Case + Accessories
• 3-Battery Combo ($7,799.99): M4T Aircraft + RC Plus 2 Enterprise + 3 Flight Batteries + Charging Hub + 100W Power Adapter + 3 Propeller Sets + Storage Case + Accessories

The 3-Battery Combo delivers up to 2.4 hours of total flight time with hot-swap battery rotations — enough to cover a full inspection or extended search operation without returning to base.

Four Cameras + Thermal + Laser. One Gimbal. Zero Payload Swaps.

The Matrice 4T carries a four-camera array plus thermal sensor and laser rangefinder on a single 3-axis stabilized gimbal. Every sensor is available instantly — no swapping payloads, no downtime between capabilities:

• Infrared Thermal Camera: 640 × 512 uncooled VOx sensor with UHR super-resolution up to 1280 × 1024 — detect heat signatures through smoke, darkness, foliage, and building materials
• 48 MP Wide-Angle (24mm): Full scene overview with f/1.7 aperture for superior low-light performance
• 48 MP Medium Telephoto (70mm): Mid-range detail for situational awareness and terrain assessment
• 48 MP Telephoto (168mm) with 112x Hybrid Zoom: Positive ID, license plates, and damage assessment from 250+ meters — 4x the pixel count and double the zoom of the Mavic 3T
• Laser Rangefinder: Tag GPS coordinates from up to 1,800 meters with sub-meter accuracy

Night Operations Built In

The M4T doesn’t need accessories to work after dark. Night Scene mode delivers full-color video in near-total darkness with ISO up to 819,200 on the telephoto. The IR Cut filter provides high-contrast black-and-white imagery for maximum thermal clarity. The built-in NIR (near-infrared) auxiliary light illuminates targets without visible light that spooks wildlife or alerts subjects. Thermal overlay on any visual camera gives you simultaneous heat and detail in a single view.

AI-Powered Detection

The M4T’s onboard AI automatically identifies and tracks people, vehicles, and boats in real time — no cloud processing, no latency. Smart tracking locks onto moving targets and follows them across the frame while the aircraft maintains position or follows a programmed route. During search operations, AI detection flags heat signatures that match human profiles, reducing the time your team spends scanning empty terrain.

Built for the Field

• -10°C to 40°C Operating Range: Reliable deployment across three seasons and moderate winter conditions
• 12 m/s Wind Resistance: Stable flight and reliable video in gusts up to 26.8 mph
• 49-Minute Max Flight Time: Per battery — the longest in its class
• 15-Second Launch: Compact airframe deploys faster than any folding enterprise drone
• Omnidirectional Obstacle Avoidance: Six HD fisheye vision sensors + intelligent rerouting
• DJI O4 Enterprise Transmission: 25 km range (FCC) with SDR + 4G hybrid for reliable video in urban canyons and remote terrain
• Integrated RTK: Centimeter-level positioning for survey-grade data collection and geo-tagged evidence

Inspection Use Cases

• Power Line Inspection: 112x zoom inspects transmission towers, poles, insulators, and distribution lines from safe standoff distances. Thermal detects hot joints and overloaded conductors.
• Solar Panel Inspection: Thermal imaging identifies underperforming cells, hot spots, and bypass diode failures across entire solar farms in a fraction of the time manual inspection takes.
• Bridge & Structure Inspection: High-resolution telephoto captures crack detail, spalling, and corrosion. Thermal reveals moisture intrusion and delamination invisible to the naked eye.
• Roof & Building Envelope: Thermal scans detect insulation gaps, moisture damage, and HVAC inefficiencies. Wide-angle provides full-structure documentation for reports.
• Pipeline & Tank Monitoring: Detect thermal anomalies, leaks, and insulation failures across miles of pipeline from a single flight.
• Cell Tower & Telecom: 112x zoom reaches every component without climbing. Thermal flags failing equipment before it drops service.

Public Safety & Recovery Use Cases

• Search and Rescue: Thermal + NIR night vision locates missing persons, hikers, and lost children through darkness, fog, and dense vegetation
• Deer & Wildlife Recovery: Track wounded game with thermal imaging after dark when ground tracking fails. Laser rangefinder marks GPS coordinates for ground recovery teams.
• Law Enforcement: Suspect tracking, vehicle pursuit overwatch, perimeter security, crime scene documentation, and AI-powered person detection
• Fire Department: Structure fire assessment through smoke, hotspot mapping, post-fire overhaul verification, and wildfire perimeter tracking
• Accident Reconstruction: Geo-tagged aerial documentation with RTK precision for investigation files and court evidence

Grant-Ready Under $8,000

The base 1-Battery Combo comes in under $7,000 — well within the equipment approval threshold for most municipal and county budgets. The 3-Battery Combo stays under $8,000. Both price points qualify under common public safety and inspection equipment categories for FEMA Emergency Management Performance Grants (EMPG), Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP), Byrne-JAG, COPS grants, state highway safety programs, and departmental capital equipment budgets. We send same-day quotes with line-item pricing formatted for grant applications. Need a sole-source justification, W-9, or vendor documentation? We have it ready.

DJI Matrice 4T vs. Mavic 3T: Why Upgrade?

If you’re currently flying a Mavic 3T or Mavic 3 Enterprise, the M4T is the next step up. The telephoto delivers 4x the pixel count and double the zoom of the Mavic 3T. The thermal sensor matches at 640×512 but adds UHR super-resolution to 1280×1024. You get a dedicated medium telephoto camera the Mavic doesn’t have, plus a laser rangefinder for GPS coordinate tagging from nearly 2 km out. AI object detection, 49-minute flight time, and O4 Enterprise transmission round out a substantial capability jump while staying in the same DJI Pilot 2 ecosystem your team already knows.

DJI Matrice 4T vs. Matrice 30T: The Modern Replacement

The M4T replaces the M30T in DJI’s enterprise lineup. You get a newer sensor package (UHR thermal, higher-resolution telephoto, AI detection), faster launch from the compact airframe, longer flight time, and proven field durability. If your fleet is running M30Ts, the M4T is the natural upgrade path with better capability at a lower price point. Same RC Plus 2 controller, same Pilot 2 software, same workflows.

Need More? Consider the DJI Matrice 4TD

For agencies and operations that need IP55 all-weather rating, Dock 3 autonomous deployment, O4+ enhanced transmission, and 54-minute flight time, the DJI Matrice 4TD is the next tier up. We carry the M4TD in First Responder, NightTracker, and Fly More configurations. The M4T and M4TD share the same thermal sensor and camera capabilities — the M4TD adds dock compatibility, IP55 rating, extended operating temperature range (-30°C to 50°C), and longer endurance for 24/7 autonomous operations.

DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise Controller (Included)

7-inch 1400-nit high-brightness display readable in direct sunlight and emergency lighting. O4 Enterprise and 4G hybrid video transmission for reliable feeds in urban canyons, mountain terrain, and dense environments. Runs DJI Pilot 2 with AI-powered object detection, smart tracking, waypoint navigation, and real-time mapping. Physical control sticks for precise, confident handling. 3.8-hour internal battery runtime.
