DJI Matrice 300 RTK for demanding aerial missions
The DJI Matrice 300 RTK builds on and improves upon the DJI Matrice 200, which was the industry standard for many years. Featuring longer flight times, greater payload capacity, advanced AI, and a host of other features, the M300 is a robust solution for meeting the most demanding enterprise requirements.
Powerful features for tough situations and environments
The DJI Matrice 300 RTK is designed to operate in challenging environments. An IP45 (ingress protection) rating means it can handle heavy rain, dust, and particles without losing performance.
Fly through extreme temperatures ranging from -4°F to 122°F and winds as high as 33.5 mph. Several redundancies are in place to notify you in the event of a system failure and help keep the drone in flight.
Furthermore, this drone uses standardized FAA technology for next-generation aircraft, with an ADS-B receiver, anti-collision beacon, and six directional sensors for collision avoidance with a detection range of over 130 feet.
With the M300, pilots in different locations can hand off control of the craft during longer range missions, enabling seamless operation throughout large areas.
Payloads for every situation
There are a wide variety of sensor payloads that can be used with the Matrice series drones, including those with advanced technology like LiDAR, thermal imaging, high zoom cameras, hybrids (wide, zoom, thermal).
Payload configurations supported by the Matrice 300 include:
-
Single Downward Gimbal Options:
-
Zenmuse XT2, XT S, Z30, H20, H20T
-
Compatible third-party payloads developed using the Payload SDK (PSDK)
-
Dual Gimbal Configurations:
-
Combinations of two among Zenmuse XT2, XT S, Z30, H20
-
Any of the above with a third-party PSDK-developed payload
-
Triple Gimbal Configuration:
-
Any dual gimbal setup plus an additional third-party PSDK-developed payload
Important Mounting Note: The Zenmuse XT2 can only be mounted on the right downward gimbal port, with 'left' and 'right' being determined from the perspective of facing the drone's front.
With these available tools, the M300 is unmatched in its ability to locate and measure objects or terrain in smoke, fog, night, or bad weather. This ability has proven to be just as helpful to public safety and search and rescue, as it is to modeling and surveying purposes.

Smart capabilities
The M300 integrates a host of advanced features to aid in missions. The Smart Track feature allows the drone to visually track a subject and show its location on a map in real-time.
In addition, Smart Inspect can automate your positions based on more than 65,000 waypoints. A camera's position, angle, and shot framing can also be replicated with Smart Inspect to track changes over time.
Applications Of The DJI Matrice 300 RTK
-
Search and Rescue Operations: The M300's ability to operate in harsh weather conditions, coupled with payloads like thermal imaging and high zoom cameras, makes it ideal for locating individuals in smoke, fog, night, or adverse weather conditions during search and rescue missions.
-
Law Enforcement and First Response: Utilized by police departments for aerial surveillance, the drone can track fleeing suspects or oversee large public areas, reducing the need for direct officer engagement and enhancing safety.
-
Infrastructure and Construction Monitoring: With features like Smart Inspect, which automates waypoint tracking and camera positioning, the drone can monitor construction sites or infrastructure projects over time to track progress and ensure adherence to specifications.
-
Environmental Monitoring and Conservation: Equipped with LiDAR and other advanced sensors, the M300 can map, survey, and monitor natural environments, aiding in conservation efforts and the management of natural resources.
-
Agriculture: The drone can be used for crop monitoring, irrigation assessment, and management of farm resources, helping to optimize agricultural productivity through precise data collection.
-
Disaster Management and Response: Its durable design allows for operation in challenging environments, making it suitable for assessing disaster-impacted areas, aiding in recovery efforts, and coordinating logistics in emergency situations.
-
Utility and Energy Sector Inspections: The drone can inspect power lines, wind turbines, and pipelines, especially in remote or difficult-to-access areas, ensuring consistent operations and early detection of potential issues using infrared sensors.
-
Film and Media Production: With its high-quality camera payloads and stable flight capabilities, the M300 serves well in film production, capturing aerial footage for movies, documentaries, and commercial advertising.
-
Delivery of Emergency Supplies: Custom payload options like drop systems enable the drone to deliver emergency supplies or medical equipment to inaccessible or disaster-stricken areas swiftly.
-
Public Announcements and Crowd Monitoring: During events or emergencies, drones equipped with loudspeakers can be used to make public announcements or manage crowds by providing aerial views and real-time monitoring.
Real-world success
Among countless examples of their proven value to law enforcement, drones have been deployed as first responders by the Clovis Police Department in a 90-day pilot program.
Aerial views of fleeing suspects were possible with drones, and they were able to clear calls with no response. As a result, in-person officer contact was reduced, saving time and reducing risk.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Chula Vista police used drones to support homeless encampments and distribute resources. Officers used a drone-mounted megaphone to instruct personnel on where to find supplies, medical screenings, and monitor the staging area.
In an operation that would normally take two days and additional manpower, Chula Vista personnel provided support to 26 encampments within three hours.
