Increased flight time and speed of the DJI Matrice 400

The flight characteristics of the Matrice 400 are: up to 59 minutes with payload и up to 53 minutes in hover mode. These capabilities make it a reliable tool for long-term and continuous operations such as search and rescue, firefighting, and large-scale mapping.

In addition, the drone can avoid large obstacles such as buildings and mountains, even at flight speeds of up to 25 m/s.

Matrice 400 – a multi-platform for universal use

The Matrice 400's high payload capacity makes it easy to handle a wide range of applications. It has a maximum payload of 6 kg, and supports quick configuration changes from a single to two lower gimbal cameras.

Additionally, the M400 is equipped with a third gimbal connector on the bottom of the body.
There are 4 external E-Port V2 ports, allowing up to 7 different load modules to be installed simultaneously.

Depending on the mission, the Matrice 400 can be equipped with payloads such as the Zenmuse H30 series, L2, P1, S1 Spotlight, V1 Speaker, and third-party payloads, expanding its capabilities and unlocking the potential of the DJI ecosystem.

Fly Safely and Reliably with the DJI Matrice 400

The Matrice 400 has a degree of protection IP55, allowing it to operate reliably even in harsh conditions, including heavy dust and rain. It also maintains stable performance in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +50°C, delivering consistent results in both hot and cold conditions.

DJI Matrice 400 quadcopter obstacle sensing system

The Matrice 400's advanced obstacle detection system combines rotating LiDAR, high-precision millimeter-wave radar, and color ultra-wide-angle sensors with low-light capabilities, taking object recognition capabilities to a new level. The system can detect invisible obstacles, such as high-voltage power lines in mountainous terrain, even in the dark.

The device operates in rain and fog, detecting objects around it and providing a high level of security in difficult weather conditions.

Reliable video broadcasting

O4 Enterprise Advanced Video Transmission System

With ten antennas on board the drone and a high-gain phased array antenna system on the controller, the O4 Enterprise system provides image transmission over a range of up to 40 km.

The Matrice 400 also supports sub2G frequency bands, and when used with two DJI Cellular Dongle 2 modems, it can automatically switch to a more stable carrier network, ensuring a reliable signal even in urban areas or remote locations.

Video relay from on board

The Matrice 400 is equipped with a built-in video relay module. In this mode, one Matrice 400 drone can act as a repeater, flying at high altitude and transmitting a signal to another Matrice 400 operating remotely.

This capability significantly increases the range of video communications, which is particularly useful for search and rescue operations and inspections in mountainous areas.

Integrated drone positioning

With comprehensive environmental awareness provided by rotating LiDAR, high-precision millimeter-wave radar, and color ultra-wide-angle sensors with low-light capabilities, the Matrice 400 delivers a highly accurate positioning system.

It is capable of flying stably near glass facades and wind turbine blades, and also returning safely from the edges of buildings, the foot of mountains, or the sides of bridges, even if the return point has not been updated.

Full-color visual support

Four ultra-wide-angle color sensors with high low-light sensitivity provide Full-Color Vision Assist, enhancing flight safety.

Enhanced intelligence and efficiency

Intelligent detection

The Matrice 400, paired with the Zenmuse H30T camera, which offers visual and thermal imaging, detects vehicles, vessels, and people during search and rescue operations or scheduled missions. Switching between different operating modes allows for a wider range of applications. High-resolution grid imaging and powerful target tracking capabilities are also supported.

Intelligent AR technologies

AR projection of power lines

During tasks such as electrical inspections, the obstacle detection system automatically detects wires ahead. and displays easily visible AR lines on the control panel screen. This allows for immediate assessment of the surrounding environment and ensures safer flight.

AR projection on the map

When flying day or night in urban areas, the remote control can display the names of buildings and landmarks in real time, and highlight major roads with bright lines.

AR flight waypoints

A real-time route preview is available during Return to Home (RTH), Obstacle Avoidance, and FlyTo commands. During landing, an AR shadow of the drone can be displayed, helping the operator pinpoint the landing location.

Live annotations

Without the need to create a 3D model, you can mark points directly on the remote control screen to determine the coordinates of objects, draw lines to measure distances between multiple points, and outline areas to calculate their area. Measurement results can be synced with DJI FlightHub 2 for increased teamwork efficiency.

Following the terrain in real time

The Matrice 400 supports automatic terrain-following flight in any horizontal direction. This feature is available both in manual control and during automated routes, ensuring a stable altitude above the ground.

During large-scale search and rescue operations, objects on the console screen remain the same size, reducing the need for constant zooming and increasing efficiency.

When mapping, the feature allows you to maintain a constant ground resolution (GSD) to obtain highly accurate data.

Takeoff and landing on ships

For operations such as maritime patrol and wind turbine inspection, the Matrice 400 is equipped with a ship takeoff and landing capability. The quadcopter supports takeoffs from stationary vessels and landings on moving ones, automatically recognizing landing marks on the deck for safe and precise landings.

Intelligent flight modes

Cruise mode

In emergency situations or disaster relief, the drone can automatically adjust its trajectory and flight speed based on the surrounding environment. This allows it to reach its destination without operator intervention.

FlyTo mode

In FlyTo mode, the drone can automatically plot a route and adjust its flight speed based on its surroundings, such as avoiding obstacles. This mode is especially useful in emergency situations or natural disasters, as it allows the drone to autonomously reach a designated point without the need for manual route control.

Smart Track

The Smart Track feature provides precise object positioning and automatic zoom adjustment, allowing you to easily switch between targets during observation. Even if an object is temporarily hidden from view (for example, behind trees or buildings), the system can automatically resume tracking, ensuring continuous situational awareness.

POI (Point of Interest)

POI mode allows the drone to automatically circle a designated point (e.g., a building), providing continuous observation and 3D modeling capabilities. This significantly improves the efficiency of tasks related to asset status recording, infrastructure monitoring, and spatial modeling.

Automation of operations has become simpler

Following a Power Line with the Zenmuse L2

The Matrice 400 quadcopter, paired with a Zenmuse L2 lidar system equipped with a laser rangefinder, automatically flies over high- and low-voltage power lines. It uses rotating LiDAR to effectively detect obstacles and automatically avoid crossing wires, ensuring safe and precise flight even in challenging conditions.

Slope route and geometric route

The Matrice 400 supports planning and execution of slope and geometric flight paths using the DJI Pilot 2 or DJI FlightHub 2 apps.

This allows you to effectively perform:

• detailed aerial photography of building facades, slopes and other inclined surfaces,
• collection of cartographic data of individual objects or structures.

The quadcopter is capable of quickly plotting routes along terrain or specified geometry, providing highly accurate and efficient filming.
