1x DJI AP100 Parachute

EASA C5/C6 | CAA UK5/UK6

When paired with DJI AP100 Parachute, Matrice 400 meets the European Union Aviation Safety Agency's (EASA) C5/C6 and the UK Civil Aviation Authority's (CAA) UK5/UK6 operational safety requirements. It facilitates compliance for Standard Scenarios, including flights over populated urban areas (STS-01) and Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations (STS-02).

Continuous Self-Diagnostics

From the moment Matrice 400 powers on and throughout the entire flight, the parachute continuously monitors the status of the gas generator and communication links. If an anomaly occurs, real-time alerts are displayed via the Health Management System (HMS) in the DJI Pilot 2, ensuring safe operation.

Intelligent Algorithms, Redundancy Validation

Equipped with an independent flight control system and sensors like IMU, the parachute functions as a self-contained safety module. Intelligent algorithms continuously cross-validate data between the drone and the parachute in real time, significantly reducing the risk of accidental deployment.

Independent Power

Built-in dual capacitors provide up to 1 hour of independent backup power. This helps ensure uninterrupted flight attitude monitoring and automatic deployment without relying on main aircraft power or an active E-Port connection.

Instant Motor Cut-Off

When triggered, an independent Flight Termination System (FTS) cuts motor power within 600 ms, stopping the rotors before parachute ejection to prevent entanglement.

Audio and Visual Alarms

After deployment, the system continuously emits loud alarms and high-intensity flashing lights for approximately 1 hour. This warns people on the ground to clear the area and helps operators quickly locate and recover the equipment.

Sharing Matrice 400's IP55 rating, the system operates reliably in challenging conditions, including heavy dust or rain. It also maintains stable performance across temperatures from -20° to 50° C (-4° to 122° F), delivering consistent results in both hot and cold conditions.
