# Matrice 4T Flight Guidelines

Matrice 4T Flight Guidelines 

Description: The M4T DJI’s next generation of enterprise drones equipped with multiple sensors. This includes a wide-angle RGB camera, medium and telephoto zoom lens, and a high-resolution 640x512 thermal sensor. Compared to its predecessor, the M3T, this drone is built for multi-use application with a wide range of payload options. 

Improvements: The M4T has an interval capture rate of 0.7 seconds which allows faster capture speeds and shorter flight times. This aircraft also boasts an increased flight time of 49 mins for increased efficiency in data capture. Additionally, the M4T can support up to 8k resolution which is ideal for precision inspections such as cracking and wiring.

Aircraft Specs:

- Cameras: 
    - Wide RGB (1/1.3 inch CMOS 48MP)
    - Telephoto Camera (1/1.3 inch CMOS 48MP)
    - Medium Tele Camera (1/1.3 inch CMOS 48MP)
    - Thermal Camera: 640x512 px, radiometric
    - Laser Range finder
    - NIR Auxiliary Light
- Capture Speed:  
    - 0.7 seconds interval capture
- Flight Planning Software 
    - DJI Pilot 2 (Built in)

Data Capture Flight Standards:

| Type of Inspection | Raptor Overview | Raptor Standard | Raptor Comprehensive |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| GSD | 15 cm/px (+-5.0) | 5.5 cm/px (+-0.5) | 3 cm/px (+-0.5) |
| Maximum Speed | 33 mph / 15 m/s | 25 mph / 11.2 m/s | 16 mph / 7.2 m/s |
| Altitude | 400ft +-125ft (122m +-38m) | 178ft (+-12) / 54.4m | 97ft (+-12) / 29.6m |

Photo Settings:

- CVI  
    - C = Current View (OFF)
    - V = Visual (RGB Wide) (ON)
    - I = Infrared (Thermal) (ON)
- Auto Focus (ON)
- Photo Resolution: 4k

Thermal Setting Adjustments:

- Leave thermal settings on default
- Palette: White Hot
- Gain Setting (Low Range)
- UHR: Turn off (this will ensure IR resolution is set to 640x512)
- Emissivity: Default (0.95)

DJI Pilot 2:

- Set Overlap settings to  
    - Front 65%
    - Side 35%
