DJI has officially launched the Matrice 400, the next evolution in enterprise drone platforms, now available at Drone Nerds. Designed for mission-critical operations, the M400 combines extreme endurance, multi-payload support, and intelligent automation to deliver unmatched aerial performance for public safety, inspection, and utility teams.
Whether you’re conducting infrastructure inspections, managing emergency response, or running multi-drone service operations, the Matrice 400 is built to handle complex tasks with precision and efficiency.
Endurance Meets Speed
With up to 59 minutes of flight time the Matrice 400 sets a new standard for long-duration missions. Combined with a top flight and route speed of 25 m/s, operators can cover more ground faster while maintaining real-time situational awareness.
Payload Flexibility Like Never Before
One of the M400’s most impressive features is its ability to handle up to 6 kg of payload using four E-Port V2 interfaces, supporting up to 7 different payloads at the same time. This makes it ideal for professionals who require multi-sensor configurations such as thermal, zoom, LiDAR, and spotlight, without compromising performance or reliability.
Engineered for Safety & Reliability
When the mission is critical, reliability isn’t optional. The Matrice 400 includes:
- Power-line-level obstacle sensing
- Airborne relay video transmission
- Full-color FPV vision system
- Up to 40 km video transmission range (FCC)
- IP55-rated weather resistance
These features ensure safe operations in dynamic and challenging environments, from industrial zones to emergency scenes.
Smart Features for Efficient Missions
The M400 is equipped with intelligent flight modes and real-time environmental awareness:
- Smart detection & AR projection lines
- Terrain-follow capability
- Cruise, FlyTo, Smart Track, and POI flight modes
- Ship-based takeoff/landing support
These capabilities enhance operator control, reduce pilot workload, and improve data collection accuracy across all mission types.
Automated Operations for Scalable Workflows
With built-in automation tools like power line follow and geometric route planning, the Matrice 400 enables repeatable, accurate missions, perfect for asset inspections, corridor mapping, and utility surveys.
Upgraded Accessories for Next-Gen Missions
DJI also introduces a brand-new smart battery station and the Manifold 3 onboard computer, capable of delivering 100 TOPS of AI processing power. These upgrades support complex edge computing tasks and faster data processing in the field.
Matrice 400 vs. Matrice 350 RTK: What’s New?
While the Matrice 350 RTK set a benchmark, the M400 takes enterprise capabilities to the next level:
| Feature | Matrice 350 RTK | Matrice 400 |
|---|---|---|
| Max Flight Time | 55 mins (no payload) | 59 mins with payload |
| Payload Support | 2.7kg, 3 payloads | 6kg, Up to 7 |
| AI Features | N/A | AI Detection, AR Projection, & More |
| Obstacle Sensing | Standard | Power-line-level |
| Weather Resistance | IP55 | IP55 |
The Matrice 400 delivers more power, more sensors, and smarter automation, making it the clear upgrade path for demanding enterprise workflows.
