DJI is constantly pushing the limits of both personal and commercial drones, and its latest release is no exception.  The new Mavic 3 Enterprise Series sets new industry standards for small commercial drones, giving you a more powerful and versatile enterprise drone than ever before.  With the Mavic 3E, you’ll be able to perform mapping and surveying missions with greater efficiency.  The mechanical shutter and 56x zoom camera ensure that you’re always getting the clearest and finest details possible.  The RTK module provides centimeter-level accuracy to make sure that your mission goes as smoothly as possible.

The series is comprised of two drones: the Mavic 3 Enterprise and the Mavic 3 Thermal drones.  For nighttime operations, search and rescue missions, inspections, and firefighting applications, the thermal drone is an excellent and powerful resource.  You’ll be able to detect hotspots, perform temperature readings, and compare side-by-side views with the DJI M3T’s zoom camera.  This makes it possible to find missing persons among foliage, spot leaks, and see details no matter what the time of day.

Portable, Lightweight Design

Most DJI drones are made to be as compact and portable as possible, allowing you to easily pack the drone in a bag or backpack as you hike to remote destinations or high mountain ranges.  The Mavic 3 Enterprise Series goes above and beyond, giving you a streamlined and portable device that can be deployed while being held in just one hand.  Whether you’re a new pilot or you have years of experience operating DJI drones, the M3E series will get the job done right.  This is due to its sleek, energy-saving design that enables it to stay in the air longer and perform on extended missions.

Superior Camera Performance

The Mavic 3E and Mavic 3T each come with their own distinct camera capabilities that make them suited for different visions.  With the Mavic 3E, you’ll get a wide-angle, 20 MP, 4/3-inch CMOS sensor that allows you to survey with speed.  This powerful camera incorporates a mechanical shutter that will reduce motion blur and allow you to perform quick interval shooting at 0.7 seconds.  It also shoots 4K video at 130 Mbps and FHD video at 70 Mbps.

The DJI M3E also has no need for Ground Control Points thanks to its incredible feature set that enables you to perform mapping and surveying missions with more efficiency than ever before.  The DJI M3E’s wide camera uses large 3.3 µm pixels in combination with an intelligent low-light mode.  This works together to give you improved low light performance, allowing you to shoot in a variety of lighting conditions no matter what time of day you’re filming.  The Mavic 3E also includes a 12MP zoom camera that supports a maximum hybrid zoom of 56x, which enables you to view faraway details with ease.

The DJI M3T comes with both a thermal and zoom camera that work together to help you see the unseen.  The Mavic 3T uses a wide-angle, 48 MP 1/2-inch CMOS sensor capable of shooting 4K video at 85 Mbps and FHD video at 30 Mbps.  The dual thermal and zoom cameras of the Mavic 3T can be viewed through a simultaneous split-screen, allowing the user to perform a 28x continuous side-by-side zoom to compare thermal and regular images.

The thermal camera of the Mavic 3T has a resolution of 640 x 512 that can help you pinpoint the finer details of thermal imaging.  It uses point and area temperature measurement, high temperature alerts, color palettes, and isotherms to help the user identify targets and make split-second decisions.  When using the DJI M3T for firefighting applications, the ability to make decisions in the moment based on critical information can be the difference between life and death.

Safety Features

The Mavic 3 Enterprise Series comes with omnidirectional sensing that makes your flight safer than ever before. Each side is equipped with wide-angle lenses that allow you to avoid obstacles in any direction without any blind spots. You can even adjust the braking distance and proximity warnings to fit the needs of your specific flight. If you want to give objects a wider berth or enable the DJI M3E to fly even closer, the drone allows you to customize it to your exact specifications.

The Mavic 3 Enterprise Series also comes with Advanced RTH, a smart safety feature that automatically detects the best path home for the drone. This enables you to save time, effort, and resources in the event that you need to make a quick getaway in the middle of a flight. And, with the use of APAS 5.0, you can even automatically reroute around obstacles. All of these safety features combine to make your flight as seamless and worry-free as possible.

Fly Further And Longer Than Before

With the DJI M3E series, you can fly the drone further and longer than ever before. The Mavic 3 Enterprise Series has a max transmission distance of 15 km, allowing you to expand your mission to fit your needs. Thanks to the quad-antenna O3 Enterprise Transmission, you’ll have an even more reliable connection in a variety of complex situations. This means that if you’re flying in a city with a lot of interfering signals, you won’t have to worry about losing communication or view of the drone.

It has a highly improved flight time of 45 minutes, a staggering upgrade from most other DJI drones and enterprise drones on the market. This allows you to survey up to 2 square kilometers in only a single trip, which greatly increases the amount of ground you can cover during your mission. To keep your drone in the air for longer, you can directly charge the drone with 88W fast charging batteries. You can also use a 100W charging hub to quickly charge the batteries and get back in the air as soon as possible.
