DJI Mavic 3TA (Thermal Advanced)

If you are searching for a compact DJI thermal drone that can handle real inspection work, emergency response, and night operations without moving up to a large airframe, DJI Mavic 3TA, also called DJI Mavic 3T Advanced, is built for that mission. It combines a 48 MP wide camera, a tele camera with up to 56× hybrid zoom, and an upgraded thermal payload that prioritizes fine detail at stand-off distances.

Designed for enterprise workflows, Mavic 3TA supports temperature measurement, thermal video capture, and a practical field-ready ecosystem, including enterprise accessories such as the official Speaker and RTK Module via the top PSDK port.

Why Mavic 3TA Performs Better for Thermal Detail

The defining upgrade is the thermal lens and sensor geometry:

• Thermal pixel pitch: 8 μm on Mavic 3TA vs 12 μm on Mavic 3T, enabling finer thermal detail.
• Thermal field of view and focal length: 41.2° DFOV with a 60 mm equivalent lens on Mavic 3TA vs 61° DFOV and 40 mm equivalent on Mavic 3T, which effectively tightens the thermal view for more precise inspection at distance.
• Thermal video: 640×512 at 30 fps, uncooled VOx microbolometer, with NETD ≤50 mK at f/1.0.

Temperature measurement is built in, including spot and area measurement, with ranges from -20°C to 150°C (high gain) and 0°C to 500°C (low gain), plus stated accuracy bands depending on gain mode.

Best-Fit Use Cases

Mavic 3TA is a strong match for teams that need fast deployment and consistent thermal deliverables, including:

• Roof, building envelope, and HVAC inspection
• Solar farm and electrical inspection where you need tighter thermal framing on small anomalies
• Public safety and search and rescue for stand-off scanning and confirmation with zoom
• Firefighting support and hotspot detection using measured thermal ranges and palettes

Mavic 3T vs Mavic 3TA, What Is the Difference?

Both models share the same overall enterprise platform and triple-sensor concept, but the thermal payload is different.

Thermal Payload Comparison (Most Important Differences)

• Pixel pitch: 3TA 8 μm, 3T 12 μm
• DFOV: 3TA 41.2°, 3T 61°
• Thermal focal length: 3TA 60 mm equivalent, 3T 40 mm equivalent

When to Choose Each

Choose DJI Mavic 3TA (Mavic 3T Advanced) when you care about detecting and diagnosing smaller thermal features from farther away, such as pinpointing hot connectors, finding specific panel anomalies, or confirming targets without flying as close. The narrower DFOV and finer pixel pitch support that inspection style.

Choose DJI Mavic 3T when a wider thermal view is more valuable, for example when you are sweeping broader areas at closer ranges and you want more scene context inside each thermal frame.
