Drone specialist HELIGUY.com™ has announced a strategic distribution agreement with FLIR Systems, Inc. (FLIR).

Pairing DJI drones with FLIR technology has a track record of benefiting drone professionals by providing crucial insights to improve efficiency, enhance safety, and drive operational outcomes.

FLIR Vue TZ20

The distribution agreement allows HELIGUY.com™ to distribute the FLIR Vue TZ20, the latest dual thermal payload for the DJI M300 RTK and DJI M200 Series V2.

The FLIR Vue TZ20 is a plug-and-play payload which provides a wide 95° field of view (FOV) to cover large areas, as well as a narrow 18° FOV to instantly put more pixels on target.

This 20x thermal zoom capability improves situational awareness, during a single flight.

Operators can gather crisp and clear data through the two 640 × 512 non-radiometric Boson™ thermal cameras and record clear imagery with the full-featured VGA thermal camera module.

With a -20°C to 45°C (-4°F to 113°F) operating temperature range, the FLIR Vue TZ20 is a powerful tool for public safety and industrial inspection missions, combining improved image detail with magnification to help assess situations and make critical decisions.
