1. Durability and weather resistance
For drone pilots faced with a variety of Belgian weather conditions, the M350 RTK is the tool of choice. This drone withstands temperatures ranging from -20°C to 50° C, and boasts enhanced weather resistance with an IP55 rating, protecting it from rain and sand. So you can concentrate on your mission without worrying about the weather.
2. The flagship remote control: DJI RC Plus
The M350 RTK is equipped with the DJI RC Plus, a high-quality remote control with an IP54 durability rating. It offers improved ergonomics and a large screen, for an optimal flying experience. What’s more, the addition of physical buttons makes it easier to control the drone, and the ability to switch from one pilot to another with the Advanced Dual Control function makes teamwork even more efficient.
3. Transmission system
The M350 RTK features an enhanced OcuSync 3 Enterprise transmission system, offering seamless connectivity with the DJI RC Plus. With four integrated antennas and a triple-channel 1080p video transmission system, this drone ensures a stable connection, even in complex environments, up to a distance of 20 kilometers.
4. Arm locking safety mechanism
The M350 RTK has been designed with safety in mind. A new arm locking mechanism has been integrated, preventing take-off if an arm is not correctly installed. This feature ensures safe drone operation and reduces the risk of accidents.
5. FPV camera for low-light conditions
For night missions or search and rescue operations, the M350 RTK is equipped with an enhanced FPV camera that excels in low-light conditions. This enables users to clearly view the horizon and identify obstacles, guaranteeing the safety and success of their missions.
6. Full compatibility with DJI Enterprise payloads
The M350 RTK is compatible with all M300 payloads, including the H20N for night operations, the H20T for inspections and thermal work, the L1 for LiDAR, and the P1 for aerial mapping. This allows great flexibility for specific applications.
7. Transport and travel
Transporting a large drone like the M350 RTK can be a challenge, but DJI has addressed this issue by rethinking the design of its protective case. More compact and featuring 360-degree wheels, the new case makes transporting the drone much easier. Owners of the M300 RTK will be delighted to learn that this case is also available for purchase separately.
8. Battery system
Battery management is an essential aspect of any drone operation. DJI has optimized the M350 RTK’s battery system to simplify this task. TB65 batteries, capable of providing up to 55 minutes of flight time, are fully hot-swappable, so you can easily replace discharged batteries with fresh ones. The charging box has also been optimized, offering three different charging modes to meet specific needs. What’s more, it incorporates a 65W USB-C charging port, handy for charging other devices such as your phone or laptop.
In conclusion, the M350 RTK is an outstanding drone that combines durability, quality control, transmission capabilities, safety, low-light performance, compatibility with various payloads, ease of transport and an efficient battery system.
Whether you’re a seasoned drone pilot in Belgium or a Drone Parts Center customer looking for the latest state-of-the-art equipment, the M350 RTK deserves your attention.
