The Matrice 4 Thermal Extended Flight Kit is built for operators who expect a mission to last longer than a single flight. With six batteries, a charging hub, RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller, rugged case, and core accessories, this package is designed for extended search, recovery, surveillance, and public safety operations.
This is the kit for teams that need a deeper battery rotation from the start. Instead of buying the aircraft and adding batteries later, you begin with enough power on hand for longer field sessions, multi-location searches, perimeter holds, or large-property work.
Delivers in approximately 5–7 business days. Net 30 available for qualified government agencies. Questions? Call (612) 816-0039.

Why Choose the 6-Battery Extended Flight Kit
Each battery is rated for up to 49 minutes of flight time under ideal conditions. Real-world flight time will vary based on wind, temperature, speed, mission profile, and the reserve maintained before landing.
The advantage of six batteries is not simply adding up rated flight minutes. It gives your team a larger operating buffer. Batteries can be staged, cooling, charging, or ready for the next launch while the aircraft remains in rotation.
That makes this package especially useful for:
- Long-duration law enforcement searches
- Perimeter and overwatch operations
- Search and rescue missions covering large areas
- Deer recovery across multiple properties
- Wildlife surveys and nighttime observation
- Fire scenes requiring repeated thermal checks
- Teams operating away from easy charging access
If your missions commonly run beyond one or two flights, this is the Matrice 4 Thermal package we would choose over a smaller battery kit.
Thermal Imaging and Visual Identification
The Matrice 4 Thermal combines a 640 × 512 thermal camera with wide, medium tele, and telephoto visual cameras. Thermal helps operators locate heat signatures in darkness, brush, wooded areas, fields, and other difficult environments, while the visual cameras provide additional detail for identification and documentation.
The integrated laser rangefinder can measure targets at distances up to approximately 1,800 meters, helping operators establish distance and location information during a mission.
The aircraft also includes an NIR auxiliary light for low-light visual operations and supported AI detection for people, vehicles, and boats.
