DJI Matrice M400

The Matrice 400 impresses with up to 59 minutes of forward flight time and up to 53 minutes of hovering time (no wind and with H30T). With a maximum speed of 25 m/s, it also masters demanding missions such as search and rescue operations, firefighting or large-scale mapping reliably and agilely.

With a load capacity of up to 6 kg and three gimbal connections, the Matrice 400 offers maximum flexibility. Thanks to four additional E-Port V2 connections, up to seven payloads can be mounted simultaneously - ideal for a wide range of applications and quick changes.

The Matrice 400 is certified to protection class IP55 and defies dust and rain with ease. With an operating temperature range of -20 °C to 50 °C, it guarantees stable performance and reliable results in any weather.

The Matrice 400's innovative system combines rotating LiDAR, mmWave radar and low-light fisheye sensors to reliably detect even small obstacles such as high-voltage power lines - even in the dark, rain or fog. This ensures maximum safety in challenging terrain.

With a ten-antenna system on the aircraft and a powerful phased-array antenna on the remote control, the O4 Enterprise Enhanced Video Transmission System offers an impressive range of up to 20 km. The Matrice 400 supports the sub-2G frequency band and automatically switches to the stronger network when using two DJI Cellular Dongle 2 - for stable connections even in urban interference zones or remote areas.

The Matrice 400 has an integrated relay module that enables a drone to ascend to greater heights and relay the signal to a Matrice 400 further away. This technology significantly increases the transmission range and is particularly valuable for search and rescue missions and inspections in difficult, mountainous terrain.

Thanks to the omnidirectional sensor fusion of rotating LiDAR, high-precision mmWave radar and full-color low-light fisheye sensors, the Matrice 400 achieves extremely precise positioning. It navigates safely and stably close to glass facades and wind turbines and returns reliably from building edges, mountain slopes or bridges - even without an updated return point.

The Matrice 400 is equipped with four low-light fisheye sensors, which provide colored visual support and thus ensure greater safety during flight.

The Zenmuse H30 series of the Matrice 400 combines visible and thermal imaging to reliably capture vehicles, ships and people during search and rescue missions and routine flights. The simple changeover to other models further extends the range of applications. The system also enables high-resolution raster images and offers powerful tracking functions.

The Matrice 400's advanced obstacle detection system automatically detects frontal obstacles such as power lines during network inspections and projects them onto the remote control screen as clearly visible AR lines - for maximum visibility and a safe flight.

When flying in urban areas, whether by day or night, the remote control displays building names, prominent landmarks and important streets in real time.

The system also enables a real-time route preview for return flights, obstacle detection and FlyTo maneuvers. During landing, an AR outline of the aircraft is displayed to facilitate exact positioning.

Even without prior 3D modeling, you can mark points, measure distances or calculate areas directly on the screen. All measurement results can be synchronized with DJI FlightHub 2 - for seamless teamwork and greater efficiency.

The Matrice 400 enables dynamic terrain tracking in real time - in all horizontal directions. This function can be activated for both manual flights and automated flight routes and ensures a constant flight altitude relative to the ground.

For large-scale search and rescue missions, the object size on the screen remains stable, reducing the need for manual zoom adjustments. For mapping missions, a uniform ground sampling distance (GSD) is ensured - for precise and reliable mapping data.

For demanding offshore operations such as sea patrols or the inspection of wind turbines, the Matrice 400 is equipped with a special function for ship take-offs and landings. It can operate safely from stationary and moving ships. Thanks to the recognition of landing point patterns on the deck, precise and safe landings are possible even under difficult conditions.

Cruise control mode allows stable flight in a fixed direction without having to operate the control sticks continuously - ideal for long-haul flights or linear inspection tasks.

In emergency situations or disaster relief operations, the Matrice 400 automatically adapts its flight path and speed to its surroundings in order to reliably reach destinations without manual intervention.

With Smart Track, the desired target is precisely detected and the zoom is automatically adjusted. Even if the object is briefly obscured, the drone recognizes and tracks it again.

POI (Point of Interest) mode enables continuous observation and 3D modeling when flying around buildings or marked areas - for maximum efficiency in recurring observation and documentation tasks.

Equipped with the LiDAR module of the Zenmuse L2, the Matrice 400 can carry out automated flights along power lines. It uses the rotating LiDAR to detect obstacles in real time and automatically flies around even intersecting lines.

DJI Pilot 2 or DJI FlightHub 2 can also be used to quickly plan and execute slope and geometric flight routes - ideal for precise measurements of facades, slopes or complex structures. In this way, the Matrice 400 enables efficient acquisition of highly accurate mapping data in a wide variety of terrain.

DJI FlightHub 2 has been expanded specifically for the Matrice 400 and enables cloud-based remote control in real time. Pilots can use it to control flight attitude and payloads as well as perform remote take-off, landing and live control. The platform supports a wide range of route options - from slope routes to complex geometric flight plans. For multi-drone missions, multiple live streams can be displayed simultaneously, enabling effective mission coordination on the ground.

DJI Terra is a powerful software for 2D and 3D reconstruction based on photogrammetry. It supports both view-based image data and point cloud data captured with the Zenmuse L2 - ideal for applications such as surveying, mapping, power line inspection, emergency response, construction projects and forestry.

DJI Modify is a user-friendly solution for the post-processing of 3D models. Together with DJI Terra and the Matrice 400, it creates an end-to-end workflow for capturing, modelling, optimizing and sharing 3D data - perfect for professional aerial surveying and model editing.

The Matrice 400 can be upgraded with a variety of powerful accessories - for maximum efficiency and flexibility in use. These include the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise Enhanced remote control, the DJI Mobile Dongle 2 for stable connectivity, the powerful TB100 battery and the TB100C wired battery for long-term use. The system is complemented by the BS100 intelligent charging station for optimized energy management and the multifunctional D-RTK 3 base station for high-precision positioning.

The Matrice 400 supports a flexible developer environment - ideal for individual applications:

• Algorithm development: access to onboard computing for own AI models
• PSDK: USB 3.0, 120 W power, expandable to up to 4 payload ports
• MSDK: Open source app development based on DJI Pilot 2
• Cloud API: Direct integration into third-party clouds without your own app
• Data access: interfaces for payload, LiDAR, radar and camera data

User data is protected by media data encryption, local data mode, AES-256 encryption of video transmission, cloud API and fast deletion of device data, among others.
