SIYI ZT6 Mini Dual-Sensor Gimbal Camera (4K 8MP, 6X Zoom)

The SIYI ZT6 is a highly compact, dual-sensor mini optical pod built for enterprise, inspection, and agriculture drones. Weighing 177 g, this payload pairs a high-resolution 4K 8MP optical camera with a thermal imaging sensor on a precision 3-axis stabilised gimbal, giving pilots a powerful tool for search and rescue, powerline inspection, and thermal mapping without taxing their flight times.

Key features

• Dual-sensor payload: Seamlessly switch between a 4K 8MP optical feed and thermal imaging for comprehensive aerial inspection.

• 6X digital zoom: Get closer to critical details safely while maintaining clear optical resolution.

• 3-axis stabilisation: A high-precision brushless gimbal ensures smooth, jitter-free video even in high-vibration drone builds.

• Versatile integration: Natively supports Ethernet video output and S.Bus/UART control, making it a drop-in match for ArduPilot and PX4 flight controllers.
