Start with the standard aircraft kit, then add equipment around the mission. This makes a Matrice 5T package easy to understand, operate and maintain.
The standard kit
Canadian packing lists from Volatus Drones and Unmanned Canada, reviewed on 7 November 2026, agree on the following core contents.
| Included equipment | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Aircraft with gimbal protector | 1 |
| RC Plus 3 Enterprise controller | 1 |
| Flight battery | 1 |
| Charging hub | 1 |
| Charger | 1 |
| Propeller pairs | 3 |
| USB-C to USB-C cable | 1 |
| Carrying case | 1 |
| microSD card installed in the aircraft | 1 |
| Power cable | Regional package |
The flight battery is included and supplied in a separate shipment. Power cable type and quantity follow the regional package. Keep the delivery checklist organized around both the aircraft case and the battery shipment.
Battery quantity follows the working day
The Matrice 5 Series battery stores 215.2 Wh and uses a dual-latch installation system. The hub charges three batteries sequentially, with a 100% Standard mode and a 95% Standby mode. DJI lists 31 minutes from 10% to 95% at 25°C.
Map out a typical assignment: travel, setup, capture, return, landing, battery change and charging. Extra packs are useful when the flight schedule is longer than the charging turnaround. Decide who checks charge state, battery condition and the next pack before the aircraft lands.
Choose AL2 for illumination
The 60 W AL2 Spotlight offers flood, spot and combined lighting, plus strobe controls. It supports aiming with the gimbal and controller shortcuts. The dedicated lesson covers installation, activation, calibration and the combined spotlight-and-speaker mounting sequence.
Choose AS2 for communication
The 35 W AS2 Speaker supports recorded messages, imported audio, text-to-speech and live broadcast. Prepare a short message library before the mission, with labels that are easy to find. Its five-colour strobe adds another configurable function to the field kit.
When fitting both accessories, follow DJI’s mounting order and calibration sequence. The accessory lessons provide a practical rehearsal before deployment.
Put Care and services on their own lines
SpeedyDrone identifies an NA SP Plus configuration with Care Plus 1 Year. Treat this as a named configuration when comparing offers. A useful SkyFlow quotation separately identifies the aircraft kit, additional batteries, payloads, Care configuration, training and any software services.
Canadian suppliers reviewed for this guide currently invite price enquiries. Build your Canadian package with SkyFlow, then use the eleven-part learning series to prepare the equipment and team together.
