Basics
How to choose the airframe
Job first. Then payload. Then dock if the site needs it.
Pick the aircraft by the job
Matrice 4E for mapping and photogrammetry when colour geometry is the deliverable.
Matrice 4T when thermal, wide and tele need to ride on one compact aircraft for inspection and fault finding.
Matrice 4D / 4TD when the aircraft lives in a Dock and flies scheduled or remote missions.
Matrice 400 when you need endurance, heavy lift and swappable enterprise payloads.
Dock 3 when the site needs remote ops without a crew on every flight.
When handheld beats a flight
Open yards, roofs and big outdoor surfaces are usually faster from the air. Handheld wins under canopy, indoors, in tunnels and anywhere a tripod circus slows you down.
Most programmes that care about the whole site use both and register the clouds in one project. Start with Handheld LiDAR scanners when the job has no sky view.
Lead time and finance
Lead time is confirmed on the quote for the exact kit. Leasing and rent-to-try are available on selected airframes when CapEx is the blocker. Ask when you book the demo.

Questions, answered
Choosing
Matrice 4E or Matrice 4T?
4E when mapping and photogrammetry are the job. 4T when thermal plus wide and tele need to live on one compact aircraft for inspection.
Why is your M4T not the cheapest number online?
Competitor AU listings often show aircraft-only or grey-import pricing around $8,249 to $8,999. Our From price is a mission-ready kit with Melbourne configuration, handover, ACL warranty and a phone answered by the team that commissions the aircraft. Ask for the landed kit price when you compare quotes.
When do I need Matrice 400 instead of Matrice 4?
When you need endurance, heavy lift or a payload the Matrice 4 Series does not carry. Many programmes run both.
Ops
When is Dock 3 the right move?
When the site needs scheduled or remote flights without putting a crew on every sortie. Pair it with Dock-ready airframes (4D / 4TD) and a real ops plan.
Should I fly or walk the site?
Fly open sky and large outdoor surfaces. Walk interiors, tunnels and under canopy. Most full-site programmes use both. See Handheld LiDAR scanners for the walk-through path.
