Drone Overview — DJI Mavic 3 Thermal (Mavic 3T)

The DJI Mavic 3 Thermal is a professional enterprise drone built around a 48 MP, 1/2-inch sensor capable of capturing stills at up to 8000x6000 px resolution and recording 4K video at up to 30fps in 8-bit color. What makes this platform particularly compelling for inspection and field work is its extensive palette of color profiles — including White Hot, Black Hot, Iron Red, Hot Iron, Arctic, Medical, Rainbow 1, and Rainbow 2 — applied across both photo and video capture modes, giving operators meaningful flexibility in how thermal data is visualized. The drone is stabilized via a gimbal system and uses contrast detection autofocus.

Storage is handled through microSD, microSDHC, and microSDXC cards, and connectivity includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB-C. The included remote controller features a built-in 5.5-inch LCD display at 1920x1080 px resolution, eliminating the need for a paired smartphone in the field. Power comes from a DJI Mavic 3 Intelligent Flight Battery (LiPo 4S), rated for up to 45 minutes of flight time.

The folded body measures 221×96.3×90.3 mm and weighs 920 g, making it reasonably portable for a professional-tier platform. ISO sensitivity spans 100 to 25600. The lens mount uses the DJI DL standard.
