The DX3A balances low payload weight with a capable electro-optical imaging system. Specifically, its dual 4K camera design uses high-sensitivity CMOS sensors with HDR technology. Automatic black-level correction also helps maintain useful detail as lighting conditions change. Furthermore, the camera supports H.264 and H.265 encoding for efficient network transmission. Video can be streamed through Ethernet using RTSP or stored in MP4 format.

A surveillance payload must often locate a subject before it can identify it. Therefore, the DX3A uses two complementary viewing ranges. At the wide end, the approximate 3.5 mm equivalent focal length captures a large scene. This view helps operators scan roads, forests, coastlines, and infrastructure corridors. At the tele end, the approximate 140 mm equivalent focal length concentrates on distant details. Moreover, 40x optical zoom preserves optical information during long-range observation. The 120x hybrid zoom then provides additional enlargement when required.

Stable Video During High-Zoom Observation

Small airframe movements become more noticeable when a camera zooms in. However, the target tracking gimbal uses three-axis stabilization to limit unwanted movement. Its yaw axis rotates ±140°, while its pitch range extends from −90° to +30°. Similarly, the roll axis provides ±45° of movement. The gimbal can reach an angular velocity of at least 60° per second. As a result, it can reposition quickly while maintaining controlled imagery. Its 0.1 mrad stabilization accuracy is especially valuable during telephoto observation.

The integrated laser rangefinder adds measurable distance data to the live camera view. It operates across a range of 5 to 1,200 meters. Notably, its specified distance accuracy is ±1 meter. This capability helps operators estimate target position without relying only on visual judgment. Furthermore, onboard inertial-navigation data supports the output of target latitude and longitude coordinates. The system can therefore turn an observed object into actionable location information.

The target tracking gimbal supports both vehicle and human tracking. Meanwhile, picture-in-picture viewing helps users maintain context during close observation. Rich OSD information can display camera, target, and robotic-platform data. Consequently, the operator can review several mission details within one interface. These functions can reduce workload during patrols, mobile surveillance, and time-sensitive inspections.

At 240 grams, the DX3A UAV gimbal camera is designed for lightweight UAVs, robots, and portable platforms. Additionally, its integrated CNC metal housing encloses the electronic components. No external board-to-board connectors remain exposed. This construction creates a cleaner payload assembly and helps protect sensitive internal parts.

The system accepts 12–24V DC power and consumes no more than 15 watts on average. For control, it supports 3.3V TTL with a 232 protocol by default. RS422 control is also available as an option. Moreover, Ethernet and RTSP support make the video stream suitable for IP-based ground systems. H.264 and H.265 encoding provide further flexibility for bandwidth and recording requirements.

The DX3A UAV gimbal camera supports missions that require stable imagery and precise target data. For instance, public-security teams can monitor moving vehicles or people from a safer position. Environmental teams can inspect forests, rivers, coastlines, and protected areas. Similarly, forest-fire personnel can scan broad regions and examine potential risk locations. Law-enforcement teams can use the dual 4K camera and laser rangefinder during patrol and observation tasks.

• Public security: Stabilized imaging, recognition, ranging, and target tracking.
• Environmental projects: Visible-light observation and distance measurement for field inspections.
• Forest-fire monitoring: Wide-area searching followed by telephoto examination.
• Law enforcement: Compact aerial monitoring with vehicle and human tracking.
• Infrastructure inspection: Long-range viewing of power lines, pipelines, towers, and remote assets.
• Long-range target search: 40x optical zoom, ranging, and coordinate-output support.

Product imagery also labels EO, infrared, and laser-ranging modules. However, detailed infrared resolution and thermal-performance values are not specified in the available technical parameters. Buyers who require a particular thermal configuration should therefore confirm those details before ordering. Overall, the documented DX3A configuration offers a strong combination of low weight, detailed visible-light imaging, and measurable target intelligence.
