DJI AP100 Parachute
DJI AP100 Parachute is a dedicated emergency parachute system for the DJI Matrice 400, designed to enhance the safety of the aircraft, payload, and people or property below in emergency situations. It supports both manual and automatic deployment, features an independent power supply, continuous self-diagnostics, and an independent Flight Termination System (FTS) that rapidly stops the motors before parachute deployment. With a response time of ≤ 600 ms, a stabilized descent speed of ≤ 5 m/s, an IP55 protection rating, and an operating temperature range of -20°C to 50°C, the DJI AP100 provides an additional layer of reliable protection for professional missions with demanding safety and compliance requirements.

DJI AP100 PARACHUTE
For the Priceless Below
DJI AP100 Parachute for Matrice 400 enables C5/UK5 and C6/UK6 operations. It features independent power and full-link redundancy, supporting both manual and automatic deployment. With a response time under 600 ms and a descent rate below 5 m/s, it helps protect your platform, payloads, and the ground below**.
European Standards for Compliant Flights
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.
Fast Deployment, Reduced Impact
Automatic Deployment Response Time ≤ 600 ms | Stabilized Descent Speed ≤ 5 m/s at Deployment Altitude ≥ 30 m
Automatic Deployment
Trigger deployment with the on-screen slider in the DJI Pilot 2. In the EU, UK, and other supported countries or regions, remote deployment is also available through DJI FlightHub 2's Flight Termination System (FTS) page
Lightweight Design
Weighing approx. 935 g, the system preserves Matrice 400's 15.8kg maximum takeoff weight, with a minimal flight time impact of about 6 minutes.
Built for Harsh Environments
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.
