The DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise series - including the standard M3E, the M3T thermal variant, and the M3M multispectral - represents the most accessible entry point into DJI's professional drone ecosystem. Compact enough for one-person rapid deployment yet capable enough for serious field work, the M3E family also supports a growing library of third-party PSDK payloads from CZI and JZ Drones.

This guide covers every CZI and JZ payload compatible with the Mavic 3 Enterprise platform, with product links, best-use cases, and recommended combinations for common mission types.

CZI Payloads for Mavic 3 Enterprise

CZI GL10 Gimbal Spotlight

The GL10 is a gimbaled spotlight that stabilizes the beam independently of the aircraft's heading. This means the pilot can orbit a subject while the spotlight stays locked on target - a critical capability for nighttime search and rescue. The gimbal keeps the light trained on a person on the ground even as the M3T banks and turns overhead. Best used on the M3T for thermal-plus-illumination SAR missions.

CZI MP120 Broadcasting Light

The MP120 combines a spotlight and a high-output speaker in a single PSDK payload. This is the go-to choice for crowd communication, incident perimeter management, and any scenario where the operator needs both light and voice from the same aircraft. Mounting a separate speaker and spotlight on the compact Mavic 3 Enterprise frame is impractical, making the MP120's integrated design especially valuable on this platform.

CZI PK10 Sound Pickup

The PK10 is an aerial audio capture accessory. It records sound from below the aircraft and transmits it back to the ground station in real time. Applications include surveillance, evidence gathering, and search operations where listening for a subject is as important as visual detection. The PK10 adds an intelligence dimension to the M3E that the drone's built-in cameras alone cannot provide.

CZI Throwing Hook (TD40 / TD40P)

The TD40 and TD40P are water rescue and delivery payloads. The system releases a line, hook, or small package from altitude with precision positioning. For water rescue, the pilot flies the M3T over a person in the water, identifies them with the thermal camera, and drops a rescue line before ground or boat crews arrive. The TD40P variant adds a parachute deployment function for controlled drops.

JZ Drones Payloads for Mavic 3 Enterprise

JZ T30 Spotlight - $799

The T30 is JZ's entry-level PSDK spotlight, sized and weighted for smaller platforms like the Mavic 3 Enterprise. It delivers a focused beam suitable for illuminating subjects during night flights, perimeter checks, and incident response. At $799, the T30 is the most cost-effective way to add lighting capability to an M3E kit. It mounts quickly and integrates with the drone's payload port without additional configuration.

JZ U3 Spotlight + Speaker - $1,199

The U3 packages a spotlight and a loud speaker into a single PSDK module. This is the JZ equivalent of the CZI MP120 and the direct competitor for combined light-and-audio missions. The U3 is well-suited for law enforcement operations where verbal commands and subject illumination are needed simultaneously. At $1,199, it costs more than buying a T30 and H1E separately, but saves a payload slot and simplifies the loadout.

JZ H1E Speaker - $449

The H1E is a standalone public address speaker designed specifically for the Mavic 3 Enterprise form factor. High output in a lightweight package allows the operator to broadcast voice commands, warnings, or pre-recorded messages from altitude. The H1E is often paired with a separate spotlight for maximum flexibility. At $449, it is the most affordable way to add aerial audio to the M3E platform.

Best Payload Combinations for Mavic 3 Enterprise

Night Search and Rescue: M3T + CZI GL10 + JZ H1E

The M3T's built-in thermal camera detects heat signatures in darkness. The CZI GL10 Gimbal Spotlight then illuminates the located subject while keeping the beam locked as the aircraft maneuvers. The JZ H1E allows the operator to call out instructions to the survivor without landing. This three-component loadout requires two separate payload swaps and is best suited for teams with a dedicated payload operator.

Crowd Control and Broadcast: M3E + CZI MP120

For public address missions - incident perimeters, crowd dispersal, emergency broadcasts - the MP120's integrated spotlight and speaker is the most efficient single-payload solution on the M3E. One attachment, one connection, full light-and-audio capability overhead.

Budget Night Operations: M3E + JZ T30 + JZ H1E

For teams that want spotlight and speaker capability without the higher cost of the U3, the T30 and H1E together come in at $1,248 - only slightly above the U3's $1,199 price, but with the flexibility to use each payload independently on different missions. This combination works well for agencies building out their first M3E night operations kit.

Platform Notes: M3E, M3T, and M3M

All three Mavic 3 Enterprise variants share the same PSDK payload port and are compatible with the payloads listed above. The key differences are the built-in camera systems:

  • M3E: Wide + zoom RGB camera. Best for general inspection, surveillance, and broadcast missions.
  • M3T (Mavic 3 Thermal): Adds a radiometric thermal camera. Strongly recommended for SAR, firefighting support, and wildlife monitoring. View the DJI Mavic 3 Thermal.
  • M3M (Mavic 3 Multispectral): Adds multispectral imaging for agriculture and vegetation analysis. Payload use cases on M3M are narrower, but spotlights and speakers remain compatible.
