One payload.
Five ways to read the scene.
The DG-L35T combines a zoom camera, a wide-angle camera, two thermal cameras and a laser rangefinder. Move from a broad overview to a closer look while maintaining useful standoff distance.

Inspect the detail.
Bring distant infrastructure into view. Start with the wide camera for context, then use the zoom camera to investigate components and structures without relying on digital enlargement alone.
The official demonstration also uses hybrid/digital magnification. Its on-screen zoom values are not all optical settings. Footage illustrates camera performance, not an approved flight distance or operating permission.
13 mm+ 45 mmThermal overview.
Thermal overview.
Thermal detail.
Two native 640 × 512 thermal cameras give you different fields of view: a 13 mm lens for the scene and a 45 mm lens for a narrower view. This is a camera-system step up from the single thermal sensor on EVO Max.
Thermal measurement accuracy depends on distance, emissivity, atmosphere and conditions. Lens choice and digital zoom do not change the native resolution of either sensor.
A larger platform.
A deliberate field workflow.
Alpha’s capabilities are most useful when the aircraft, batteries, operator and mission software are planned as one system.
Bring heat signatures into context.
AI recognition can mark supported target types in the camera view and assist situational awareness. Detection and identification depend on the scene, firmware and operator verification.
Know the aircraft version.
Autel describes vision, radar and visual-navigation features for the platform. Radar configuration varies by region and aircraft version. Some 24 GHz versions disable the other radar directions; do not assume six-direction radar or night obstacle sensing on every unit.
Confirm the exact Canadian configuration with SkyFlow. Sensing can miss obstacles and does not replace pilot awareness. A-Mesh, path planning and GNSS-denied features require supported hardware, firmware and conditions.

Plan the battery rotation.
The bundle includes two flight batteries total, alongside the V3 controller, charging equipment and rugged case. Hot-swappable battery support helps the on-ground changeover workflow; it does not mean unlimited working endurance.
¹ Manufacturer test: windless flight at 10.5 m/s. Actual endurance varies with payload, weather, battery condition and reserve. IP55 is not permanent and can decline with wear. The V3 controller has a different protection rating; protect the complete ground setup.
When to choose Alpha.
When to choose another class.
Choose around the required image, deployment effort and software workflow. A larger aircraft makes sense when the camera and field requirements justify it.
| Platform | Why shortlist it | Decision point |
|---|---|---|
| EVO Lite Enterprise | Compact visible-light or thermal deployment. | Choose the smaller kit when portability matters more than optical standoff detail. Lite is 866 g; Alpha is a substantially larger industrial aircraft. |
| EVO Max 4T XE / 4N | Portable multi-sensor work: XE optical zoom or 4N starlight. | Max is the middle tier. Alpha adds 35× optical zoom and two thermal focal lengths; Max 4N remains a different low-light camera choice. |
| Autel Alpha L35T | Standoff infrastructure inspection, dual thermal views and IP55 industrial work. | A defined L35T camera package. Check crew, transport, battery rotations, radar version and operating category before choosing the larger aircraft. |
| DJI Matrice 350 RTK + H30T | A modular aircraft-and-payload alternative in the same industrial conversation. | Compare the complete configured system. H30T has native 1280 × 1024 thermal imaging; Alpha’s two thermal cameras are each 640 × 512. Two views are not equivalent to a higher-resolution sensor. |
| DJI Matrice 400 + H30T | A newer industrial platform when payload flexibility and the DJI ecosystem drive the project. | Compare supported payloads, processing/reporting software, aircraft cost, camera cost, batteries and training. This is mission-fit guidance, not a claim of identical hardware. |
Compare loaded working endurance, not headline flight times measured under different conditions. Alpha’s positioning claims do not guarantee survey accuracy; validate the full capture and processing workflow. Maximum transmission distance does not authorize BVLOS operation.

Before you choose.
What changes when I move from EVO Max to Alpha?
Alpha is the larger industrial platform, with a 35× optical zoom camera, two thermal cameras with 13 mm and 45 mm lenses, laser ranging and an IP55 aircraft rating. Compare the transport, crew and battery workflow alongside the camera advantages.
How many flight batteries come in the L35T bundle?
Two flight batteries total. They are the aircraft battery pair, not two spare sets. The bundle also includes the Smart Controller V3, charging equipment, two spare propeller pairs and rugged case, plus the listed accessories.
Is six-direction radar available on every aircraft?
No. Autel describes regional aircraft-version limits, including some 24 GHz versions with other radar directions disabled. Confirm the exact supplied configuration with SkyFlow; do not assume night radar obstacle sensing.
Does the bundle include a loudspeaker or spotlight?
No. Those are optional payload accessories. The included imaging payload is the DG-L35T; optional accessories must be quoted separately.
Is Alpha thermal resolution higher than DJI H30T?
No. Alpha has two native 640 × 512 thermal cameras with different focal lengths. H30T has native 1280 × 1024 thermal imaging. Compare scene detail, field of view and reporting workflow rather than treating the two-camera count as sensor resolution.
