DJI Matrice 350 AVSS Parachute Weekly Rental
AVSS PRS-M350 brings automatic parachute recovery and flight termination to DJI Matrice 350 RTK operations, enabling enterprise teams to support regulatory applications for over-people and BVLOS operations with a field-proven recovery system.
- Deploy automatically in milliseconds: Spring-based deployment activates in 20 milliseconds and reaches full parachute inflation in 0.57 to 1.30 seconds across the M350's validated payload configurations.
- Trigger manually beyond 2 km: The independent remote gives pilots direct control over deployment from more than 2 kilometres away without relying on the aircraft's flight controller or data link.
- Replace Parachute Pods in the field: Reusable prepacked pods can be swapped without returning the system for service, reducing downtime between operations.
- Install without GPS interference: The carbon fibre and aluminium top-mounted bracket positions the system clear of the M350's GPS modules while supporting downward and upward gimbal configurations.
Overview and Who It's For
The PRS-M350 is a drone parachute recovery system designed specifically for the DJI Matrice 350 RTK. It integrates via PSDK for autonomous and manual deployment, includes an independent 915/868 MHz remote with over-2 km range, and ships with a rugged GPC protective case and ASTM F3322 and EASA MOC 2512 documentation.
Note: This product is designed for operators currently using the DJI M350 RTK. If you are evaluating a new enterprise drone platform, speak with Candrone's Solutions team about current aircraft options.
- Public Safety: Search and rescue, emergency response, and law enforcement teams operating the M350 over populated or restricted areas where a flight termination system is required for regulatory approval.
- Mining and Aggregate: Survey and inspection teams flying over active pit operations or populated site areas where over-people compliance documentation is required.
- Civil and Power: Infrastructure inspection over roadways, rail corridors, and populated areas where BVLOS or over-people applications depend on recovery system documentation.
- Enterprise M350 operators: Support regulatory applications with ASTM F3322 and EASA MOC 2512 documentation.

FAQs
Does the PRS-M350 work with both downward and upward gimbal configurations on the M350?
Yes. The attachment bracket is designed to accommodate the M350's payload configurations for both downward and upward gimbals without modification.
What is the minimum altitude required for a safe deployment?
Minimum deployment altitude is 44.60 m / 146.33 ft at 7.70 kg total aircraft weight and 50.80 m / 166.67 ft at 9.20 kg.
Does installing the PRS-M350 affect the M350's payload capacity?
The system adds 922 grams to the aircraft. This must be accounted for against the M350's maximum take-off weight. Performance metrics are provided for total aircraft weights of 7.70 kg and 9.20 kg.
Can the parachute be deployed manually without relying on the aircraft's data link?
Yes. The independent remote operates on 915 MHz in North America or 868 MHz in Europe with a range exceeding 2 km, separate from the aircraft's flight controller and data link.
Are replacement Parachute Pods available?
Yes. AVSS Parachute Pods are field-replaceable and available separately. Contact Candrone for pricing and availability.
