DJI Matrice 5T
Onboard AI models detect more than 20 target types before a single frame leaves the aircraft, and a perception suite combining standard LiDAR, mmWave radar and full-colour omnidirectional vision handles obstacle sensing at IP55. A 1280×1024 thermal camera with up to 176x hybrid zoom runs alongside full-colour night vision from the same gimbal, and maximum flight time reaches 59 minutes. This is DJI's standalone Matrice 5T, flown with the new RC Plus 3 Enterprise controller rather than paired to a dock.
Why the Matrice 5T Earns Its Place in a Fleet
Onboard detection of 20+ target types happens before a single frame leaves the aircraft, keeping a mission running the moment a connection drops or a site has no reliable signal for cloud processing. Open onboard computing goes further still, letting a development team run its own custom AI algorithms directly on the aircraft rather than working only within DJI's built-in models. Paired with FlightHub 2, that same detection data supports multimodal object detection across a whole fleet rather than staying siloed to one aircraft's feed.
The LiDAR and mmWave radar perception suite extends obstacle sensing into wire-level detection, relevant the moment a flight path runs close to overhead cables, scaffolding or other aircraft a standard vision system might miss. A 1280×1024 thermal camera with 2K UHR mode and up to 176x hybrid zoom means a single gimbal covers wide-area search and close-range identification without a lens change or a second aircraft. Thermal-visible fusion display and split-screen multi-camera view put both feeds in front of the pilot at once, cutting the time spent switching views mid-task.
Maximum flight time of 59 minutes and a 23 m/s top speed mean a corridor inspection or dispatch job covers more ground per battery, fewer landings to swap packs and more actual working time in the air. Video transmission up to 20km under CE compliance, the figure that applies across the UK and EU, keeps a pilot in control well beyond visual range on a long pipeline, perimeter or coastal run.
Built for Public Safety, Utility and Maritime Work
A high-volume speaker with a built-in warning light and a spotlight combining spot and flood lighting turn the Matrice 5T into a direct public safety and security asset, not just a camera platform overhead. Automated power line inspection runs directly on the aircraft, extending it into utility corridor work without a third-party workaround bolted on. Shipborne takeoff and landing support brings the same aircraft onto a vessel for maritime inspection, one airframe covering three distinct verticals rather than three separate purchases.
Accessories
The 515W Charging Hub speeds battery turnaround between flights on a multi-sortie day, keeping a crew in the air rather than waiting on a slow charge cycle between sorties. The high-volume speaker and warning light, and the combined spot and flood spotlight, extend the aircraft directly into public safety and security deployment.
Compatibility
The Matrice 5T is a standalone, handheld-controller aircraft, distinct from the dock-paired Matrice 5TD covered on our DJI Matrice 5 Series page. It pairs with the DJI RC Plus 3 Enterprise, not the RC Plus 2 Enterprise used by the Matrice 4 Series, so an existing RC Plus 2 controller doesn't carry across to this aircraft.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the DJI Matrice 5T cost?
DJI doesn't permit this item's price to be advertised online. Call Drone Safe Store directly to confirm current pricing and stock.
Is the Matrice 5T the same aircraft as the Matrice 5TD?
No, they're different products within DJI's Matrice 5 Series. The Matrice 5TD pairs exclusively with Dock 4 for automated missions; the Matrice 5T is flown manually with the RC Plus 3 Enterprise controller.
Does the Matrice 5T include LiDAR as standard?
Yes, standard LiDAR and mmWave radar are both part of the built-in perception suite, alongside full-colour omnidirectional vision and Vision Assist.
Can I use my existing RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller with the Matrice 5T?
No, the Matrice 5T pairs with the newer DJI RC Plus 3 Enterprise, a separate controller from the Matrice 4 Series' RC Plus 2 Enterprise.
What's the transmission range in the UK?
Up to 20km under CE compliance, the figure that applies across the UK and EU. The 40km figure DJI quotes applies only under IC compliance.
Can I run my own AI algorithms on the aircraft?
Yes, open onboard computing supports third-party AI algorithms directly, alongside DJI's own built-in detection models.
