This is a thermal detection range test. The test subjects are Alabama whitetail deer estimated to be in the range of 70lbs for a juvenile to 130lbs for the mature does.

Comment and let me know if you want to see this done with other test subjects(human, dogs, etc).

We test the detectability of the deer at an altitude of 400ft and at 500ft intervals horizontally from the target...500ft - 3000ft

    Thanks for the test with the camera. Looking at the Mavic 3T as a possible option to get to help spot calves during calving season.
  • @CanadianPrepper
    Thanks for the demo, I would use a better color scheme but this demonstrates its capabilities very well. That drone is sick! All it needs is a gun mount
  • @jake08casey

  • @kiwitales
    Hi, great video thanks. Can you see deer etc in closed bush cover? Maybe it depends if the bush is wet or not?
  • @sverso
    @strthermal! Great video. Do you think it would be enough to find asian wasp nest? thanks
  • @MikePizzolatt
    great video. couple of questions. 1. why did you choose the mavic 3T say over the M30T? 2. what is the zoom capability on the mavic 3T? thanks
  • @guiT39
    My honest question is: can you make cool HD videos with this drone as you can with the "regular" mavic 3 pro?
  • @DVDCDD
    Would this be a good drone for deer recovery/locating after shot, would you be able to fly it over dense woods and see through the canopy?
  • @anthonywolf943
    Is there anyway to test if you can see theremal activity in shipping containers with one of these? Would you be able to use this to see if people are in one?
  • @RSI24
    How is this compared to Autel's thermal cam?
  • @kaylaize6700
