Extended Flight Time.
High-Speed Performance.
Matrice 400 offers up to 59 minutes of forward flight and up to 53 minutes of hovering, even with a payload. These capabilities support extended operations such as search and rescue, firefighting and large-scale mapping. A flight speed of up to 25 m/s also helps it navigate around large obstacles such as buildings and mountains.
Multiple Payloads. Multiple Scenarios.
Matrice 400's payload capacity supports a wide range of applications. With a maximum capacity of 6 kg, it supports switching between a single downward gimbal and dual downward gimbals. A third gimbal connector underneath adds flexibility. Four external E-Port V2 ports allow up to seven payloads to be mounted simultaneously.

Depending on the mission, Matrice 400 can carry Zenmuse H30 Series, Zenmuse L3, Zenmuse L2, Zenmuse P1, Zenmuse S1 Spotlight, Zenmuse V1 Speaker, Manifold 3 or third-party payloads, expanding its capabilities across the DJI ecosystem.
For seven payload connections, the E4 port is expanded with an E-Port Hub board. Each connection's payload limit must be assessed separately.
Flight Time by Payload
Matrice 400 flight time is estimated according to its payload. Duration varies with the payload configuration.

Built for Challenging Conditions
Matrice 400 has an IP55 rating for operation in challenging conditions such as dust or rain. Its operating temperature range of −20 °C to 50 °C (−4 °F to 122 °F) supports performance in both hot and cold environments.
Strong Connectivity.
Intelligent Operation.
O4 Enterprise Enhanced Video Transmission and airborne relay transmission support mission continuity. Intelligent sensing, visual and thermal imaging with suitable payloads, AR projection, ship-based takeoff/landing and advanced automation address different mission needs on one platform.
Senses Its Surroundings.
Focuses on Your Mission.
Rotating LiDAR, high-precision mmWave radar and low-light fisheye vision sensors work together around power lines and complex structures.
Power-Line-Level Obstacle Sensing
Supports detection of thin power lines. Performance depends on line thickness, approach speed, weather and obstacle structure.
Fused Positioning
Combines data from multiple sensors to support stable flight around glass facades, wind turbines and bridges.
Full-Color Vision Support
Four low-light fisheye sensors help you see the surroundings. Below 12 lux ambient light, the image switches to black and white.
Obstacle sensing is not guaranteed for every object or condition. mmWave radar availability varies by country and region.
Stronger Video Transmission
O4 Enterprise Enhanced Video Transmission supports connectivity with ten aircraft antennas and a phased-array antenna system on the controller.

Airborne Relay Video Transmission
One Matrice 400 can serve as an elevated relay to support transmission for a second Matrice 400 in operations with limited line of sight.
4G-Assisted Connectivity
DJI Cellular Dongle 2 enables cellular networks and O4 transmission to be used together. The aircraft supports switching between carriers with two dongles.
Mission-Specific Connectivity
Sub2G and relay availability depend on regional frequency support. 4G additionally requires a dongle, network access and a supported service.
Intelligent Tools.
Smoother Operations.
Sensing, on-screen field information and automatic flight tools come together in one workflow.
Intelligent Sensing
Supports detection of people, vehicles and boats with Zenmuse H30 Series. Thermal imaging requires H30T. High-resolution grid photos and tracking tools simplify detailed inspection.
AR Projection
Power lines, map information and flight routes can be displayed over the camera view. During landing, an AR aircraft shadow helps assess position.
Live Annotation and Measurement
Mark points on screen without building a model; measure distances with lines and areas with boundaries. Share results with DJI FlightHub 2.
Real-Time Terrain Following
Supports maintaining relative height above ground in manual or automatic flight with DJI Pilot 2, providing more consistent GSD for mapping and similar target scale in search missions.
Ship-Based Takeoff and Landing
Supports takeoff from a stationary ship and landing on a suitably marked moving deck. DJI recommends a ship speed below 10 knots, wind below 5 m/s and a 3 × 3 m area.
Intelligent Flight Modes
Maintain direction with Cruise, fly to a selected point with FlyTo, follow a target with Smart Track or inspect around a point using POI.
Easier Fieldwork
with Automated Missions
DJI Pilot 2 and DJI FlightHub 2 support data collection for power lines, inclined surfaces and structures.
Power Line Inspection
Use H30 Series to follow conductors and ground wires, collecting imagery at the specified distance and speed. Consider mission conditions for supported line types and slopes.
LiDAR Line Following
Automatic line following and routing around intersecting lines with Zenmuse L3 or L2 support corridor scanning workflows.
Inclined and Geometric Routes
Plan inclined or geometric routes to survey building facades, slopes and structures. Arrange data collection to match the surface shape.
