Estimated turnaround: 1 to 2 weeks, mostly logistics. For any Matrice 400 purchased from Drone Parts Center, we take care of this upgrade for you.<\/p>\n<h2>How deployment works<\/h2>\n<p>The system follows a four-step sequence:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Detection<\/strong>: continuous monitoring of attitude (IMU), motor speed and supply voltage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ejection<\/strong>: the motors stop, then a gas generator (a pyrotechnic system, comparable to a car airbag) instantly produces high-pressure gas that opens the hatch and ejects the parachute, tensioning the lines in a fraction of a second.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Deceleration<\/strong>: the nylon canopy deploys and inflates; its large surface slows the fall to under 5 m\/s.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Landing and recovery<\/strong>: the aircraft descends suspended beneath the canopy, stabilised. Audible and visual alarms (about 1 hour) alert ground personnel and help locate the aircraft.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/infog-ap100-sequence-en.jpg\" alt=\"DJI AP100 parachute: the deployment sequence\" width=\"1600\" height=\"640\" class=\"wp-image-469203\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/infog-ap100-sequence-en.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/infog-ap100-sequence-en-800x320.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/infog-ap100-sequence-en-1400x560.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/infog-ap100-sequence-en-768x307.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/infog-ap100-sequence-en-1536x614.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/infog-ap100-sequence-en-510x204.jpg 510w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c06-en.jpg\" alt=\"DJI AP100 parachute: motors stop before the canopy opens\" width=\"1386\" height=\"924\" class=\"wp-image-469144\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c06-en.jpg 1386w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c06-en-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c06-en-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c06-en-510x340.jpg 510w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1386px) 100vw, 1386px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c07-en.jpg\" alt=\"DJI AP100 parachute deployed on the ground, audible and visual alarms for about 1 hour\" width=\"1600\" height=\"800\" class=\"wp-image-469145\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c07-en.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c07-en-800x400.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c07-en-1400x700.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c07-en-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c07-en-1536x768.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/drone-parts-center.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ap100-c07-en-510x255.jpg 510w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h2>Three deployment modes<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Automatic<\/strong>: anomaly detection through sensor fusion (attitude, speed); geocaging-triggered deployment (EU, UK and EEA) when leaving the defined operational volume.
