Matrice 4TD Thermal Drone 3-Battery Field Kit

The Matrice 4TD 3-Battery Field Deployment Kit is for operators who expect to launch more than once, work away from the office, and keep flying when field conditions are less than ideal.

Instead of treating the aircraft as a single-flight system, this package is built around mission continuity. Three batteries give law enforcement, fire crews, wildlife operators, inspectors, and utility teams enough capacity to conduct multiple sorties before returning to a charger.

The 4TD's biggest advantage is its IP55-rated airframe. For teams working around dust, moisture, changing weather, active incidents, remote property, industrial sites, or unpredictable field conditions, that added environmental protection can be more valuable than simply adding accessories.

Standard delivery is approximately 5–7 business days. Net 30 available for qualified government agencies and commercial buyers. Questions or need a formal quote? Call (612) 816-0039 or email sales@covertdrones.com.

Built Around Repeated Deployments

The three-battery configuration is intended for missions that develop over time.

A police search may move from one perimeter to another. A fire crew may need repeated thermal checks as conditions change. A deer recovery operator may have several properties to search in one night. An inspector may need to work through multiple structures or assets without stopping after one flight.

Three batteries give you room to rotate flights, stage the next battery, and keep the aircraft available while the mission continues.

One Aircraft for Multiple Teams

The Matrice 4TD is not limited to one specialty. Its combination of thermal imaging, visual cameras, laser ranging, RTK positioning, obstacle sensing, and weather resistance makes it useful across very different operations.

Typical users include:

• Law enforcement and public safety
• Fire departments and emergency response
• Search and rescue teams
• Deer and wildlife recovery operators
• Utility and energy companies
• Industrial inspection teams
• Solar operators
• Roof and building inspectors
• Emergency management agencies
• Commercial thermal pilots

See Heat, Confirm Visually, Mark the Location

The aircraft combines a 640 × 512 thermal camera with wide, medium telephoto, and telephoto visual cameras.

Thermal can help reveal people, animals, hotspots, electrical issues, mechanical heat patterns, and other temperature differences that may be difficult to identify visually.

Once something is located, the optical cameras provide additional context and detail. The 168mm-equivalent telephoto camera allows observation from farther away, while the integrated laser rangefinder can measure targets at distances up to approximately 1,800 meters.

Designed for Tougher Environments

Key platform capabilities include:

• IP55-rated aircraft
• Integrated RTK positioning
• LiDAR and millimeter-wave radar obstacle sensing
• Omnidirectional obstacle awareness
• Wide gimbal movement for difficult viewing angles
• Low-noise anti-ice propellers
• Extended operating temperature range
• Long-range enterprise transmission
• RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller
• 640 × 512 thermal imaging
• 48MP wide, medium telephoto, and telephoto cameras

Weather resistance does not replace safe operating judgment, but it gives professional operators more flexibility when conditions are less predictable.

• Screwdriver and standard accessories

Why Three Batteries?

This kit is the practical middle ground between a basic entry package and a large extended-flight setup.

Three batteries make sense for operators who expect multiple launches during a shift, need to cover several locations, or regularly work far enough from power that a single battery creates unnecessary downtime.

It is especially useful for agencies and businesses that want a field-ready 4TD system without immediately building a large battery inventory.

Condition, Activation & Coverage

Every aircraft ships unused with zero flight hours. We activate and inspect each unit before shipment.

Because these aircraft are activated prior to resale, they are not eligible for Enterprise Care or the manufacturer's U.S. warranty. Paid manufacturer repair service may still be available.

If your aircraft arrives defective, contact us within 72 hours of delivery for assistance under our DOA policy.
