About Matrice 30 Series

Matrice 30 Series is a foldable enterprise-drone family built around two distinct sensor packages. M30 combines wide and zoom cameras with a laser rangefinder; M30T adds a radiometric thermal camera. Both aircraft are rated for 41 minutes of flight, IP55 protection and operation from minus 20 to 50 degrees Celsius, with RTK positioning and a maximum horizontal speed of 23 metres per second.

DJI RC Plus, Pilot 2 and FlightHub 2 cover field control, mission planning, live video and fleet coordination. Separate Dock versions of M30 and M30T work with the first-generation DJI Dock, while regular aircraft do not. That model boundary matters for unattended installations and keeps the portable aircraft configuration distinct from a docked deployment package.
