FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which drone and system environment is the DJI AP1 Parachute intended for?

The DJI AP1 Parachute is a parachute recovery system for the DJI Matrice 5TD operated with DJI Dock 4.

It is installed on top of the drone via the DJI Matrice 5TD Accessory Mount. This accessory mount is required for installation.

How can the DJI AP1 Parachute be deployed?

The DJI AP1 Parachute can deploy automatically when the drone’s or parachute’s sensors detect an unusual flight attitude or speed.

You can also deploy the parachute manually via DJI FlightHub 2. Activation via the FTS page in DJI FlightHub 2 is also supported.

If a geocaging boundary has been configured, the system can also deploy automatically when the drone leaves this boundary.

What minimum height and descent rate apply to the DJI AP1 Parachute?

Under defined test conditions, the DJI AP1 Parachute requires an effective minimum height of 35 m to stabilise the descent.

Under these test conditions, the stabilised descent rate is below 6 m/s.

Below the minimum height, the parachute may be ejected but may not fully deploy.

Can the DJI AP1 Parachute be reused after deployment?

No. The DJI AP1 Parachute is a single-use safety device.

After deployment, the entire parachute system must be replaced.

Even without deployment, it is recommended that the system be decommissioned and replaced three years after activation.

Does installing the DJI AP1 Parachute affect the Matrice 5TD’s obstacle detection?

After installation, the Matrice 5TD adjusts its obstacle detection.

Detection of small obstacles behind and above the aircraft may be affected. You must take this limitation into account when planning flights, routes and operating altitudes.

DJI AP1 Parachute for DJI Matrice 5TD

The DJI AP1 is the parachute recovery system for the DJI Matrice 5TD in automated operation with the DJI Dock 4. When deployed, it stabilises the drone’s descent rate at below 6 m/s, thereby reducing the consequences of a crash for people, property and the aircraft. EU versions of the Matrice 5TD are delivered from the factory with the AP1 pre-installed – this product serves as a replacement after deployment or once the recommended service life has expired.

C5 class marking

With the AP1 installed, the Matrice 5TD receives the C5 class marking in addition to C2 and C6 and can be operated in the STS-01 standard scenario provided the applicable requirements are met.

Fast automatic and manual deployment

The parachute deploys automatically within 600 ms when the drone’s or parachute’s sensors detect an unusual flight attitude or speed, as well as when the drone leaves a configured geocaging boundary. It can also be deployed manually via DJI FlightHub 2 or via the FTS page with an independent FTS connection. Its own backup power supply keeps the system operational for 30 seconds in the event of a drone power failure.

Continuous self-check

The gas generator and communication connections are continuously monitored; status messages are displayed in the Health Management System of DJI FlightHub 2. In the event of deployment, an acoustic signal from the drone and a flashing status indicator provide a warning.

Robust and lightweight

Weighing just 107 g, with IP55 protection and an operating temperature range of -40 to 50 °C, the AP1 is designed for continuous dock operation in almost any weather. It supports a take-off weight of up to 3050 g and operating altitudes of up to 5000 m.

Installation

The AP1 is installed on top of the drone via the Matrice 5TD accessory mount and connected using the supplied connection cable. The DJI AL2D spotlight and DJI AS2D speaker can also be installed on the mount.

Notes

With the AP1 installed, the Matrice 5TD adjusts its obstacle detection; detection of small obstacles behind and above the aircraft may be limited. This must be taken into account when planning flights, routes and operating altitudes. The effective minimum deployment height is 35 m. The AP1 is for one-time use only and must be completely replaced after deployment. Maintenance is required at least every six months and includes checking, among other things, the connectors, status indicator and protective cover. Even without deployment, DJI recommends replacing the system three years after activation.
