DJI Dock 3

Flagship Autonomous Drone Deployment System

The DJI Dock 3 redefines autonomous drone operations—offering 24/7 vehicle-mounted or fixed-site deployment with unmatched durability, environmental resilience, and advanced automation. It’s purpose-built for critical missions such as inspection, surveying, and emergency response, combining rugged design with seamless integration into drone ecosystems.

DJI’s first dock designed specifically for vehicle mounting, the Dock 3 supports fully automated flights using Matrice 4D/4TD drones. With rapid 10-second takeoff, dual-dock support, intelligent RTK positioning, and real-time mission control via FlightHub 2, it enables reliable drone-in-a-box performance—even in dynamic or remote conditions.

One System, Multiple Advantages

Compatible with Matrice 4D / 4TD (IP55)
10-sec Auto Launch (GNSS)
Vehicle-Mountable or Fixed State
