DJI Enterprise Payload Compatibility Matrix 2026: Matrice 400, Matrice 350 RTK & Matrice 300 RTK

This page is designed as a reference, not a one-time launch comparison. It separates what DJI currently lists, what works only with a stated condition, and what is absent from the current support documents reviewed. Recheck it whenever aircraft, controller, payload or Payload SDK firmware changes.

Quick-reference DJI Enterprise payload compatibility matrix

Start here when deciding whether a DJI payload belongs on Matrice 400, Matrice 350 RTK or Matrice 300 RTK. The table treats “compatible” as an officially documented platform relationship, not merely a connector that can be attached.

Interpret “—” narrowly: DJI did not list the combination in the current official documents reviewed on the verification date. It does not prove that an adapter can never be engineered, and it is not approval to fly an undocumented combination.

Mounting architecture: compatibility is not just a model name

Aircraft support tables hide the physical architecture. Matrice 400 replaces the older upward-gimbal path with an M400-specific third connector and a dedicated L3 connector. Matrice 350 RTK and Matrice 300 RTK retain upward and combined mounting configurations. That difference affects line of sight, clearance, weight distribution and which mission combinations are practical.

This table describes DJI's published mount families, not approval for every payload combination. Total mass, individual mount limits, clearance, power, centre of gravity and endurance still require system-level validation.

A deployable system needs all four layers. A technically supported camera can still be the wrong choice if it blocks the required second payload, changes the controller, removes an aircraft-specific function or produces data your team cannot process. Treat the matrix as a shortlisting tool, then validate the complete operating system.

The same payload does not create the same workflow

The H30/H30T, L2, P1, S1 and V1 span more than one aircraft, but the operational experience is not identical. Four examples explain why a procurement team should avoid describing compatibility as “plug and play.”

H30/H30T: one payload family, three aircraft generations

DJI lists the H30 Series for Matrice 400, Matrice 350 RTK and Matrice 300 RTK. On M300, DJI specifically requires the RC Plus path. The M400 also adds platform functions that do not become M350/M300 features simply because the same H30T is attached. For example, DJI's current power-line inspection workflow is documented for Matrice 400 with H30 Series. Plan the aircraft, controller, application and function together.

L2: mounting can affect mapping accuracy

DJI's L2 FAQ publishes different mounting guidance by aircraft. On Matrice 350 RTK and Matrice 300 RTK, use the single downward mount and connect the specified USB-C cable to the aircraft's right-side underside port. On M400, L2 can use the single downward or either position of the dual downward connector, but DJI warns that carrying another payload on the dual mount may reduce mapping accuracy. “Compatible” therefore does not mean every mount produces the same result.

S1 and V1: multi-platform hardware, platform-dependent output

Zenmuse S1 and V1 are current multi-platform functional payloads, not M400-only accessories. But DJI publishes different output or feature behaviour by platform. S1's stated illumination at 100 metres is higher on M400 than on M350/M300. V1's M400 workflow includes aircraft-dependent capabilities such as real-time broadcasting, automatic gain control and different text-to-speech options. Confirm the exact feature needed by your public-safety or site-communication SOP.

P1: compatible hardware still needs a complete mapping chain

P1 appears across all three aircraft columns. That does not preserve the same endurance, mission-planning options, lens choice, base-station arrangement, storage or photogrammetry output. A fleet migration should include a representative capture and processing test, not only a successful power-on check.

Third-party payload support: why there is no single “yes”

All three aircraft families support third-party development routes, but the hardware generation and software requirements differ. A third-party payload should be identified by its exact mechanical interface, adapter generation, Payload SDK version, accessory firmware and required functions. “PSDK compatible” without those details is not a sufficient purchasing specification.

DJI's current developer documentation explicitly gives firmware thresholds for some X-Port and SkyPort V2 devices moving to M400, and its PSDK release notes continue to change. For a deeper architecture explanation, use SpeedyDrone's Matrice 400 E-Port V2, PSDK, SkyPort V3 and X-Port guide. It separates the physical connector, adapter, gimbal-development and software layers.

Should an existing M350 RTK owner move to Matrice 400?

Payload reuse can strengthen the M400 business case, but it should not be the only decision. Existing H30/H30T, L2, P1, S1 and V1 investments have a documented path to M400. L3 creates a new M400-only geospatial path. H20/H20T/H20N and L1, however, remain current M350/M300 payloads and are absent from the M400 list reviewed.

If the fleet depends on H20T, H20N or L1 and the mission already works, keeping M350 RTK can be the lower-risk path. If the mission needs L3, the M400 connector architecture, heavier payload capacity or M400-specific workflows, the newer platform can justify a system change. SpeedyDrone's Matrice 400 vs Matrice 350 RTK buyer's guide covers the broader upgrade decision.

Current SpeedyDrone payload pages

These are the exact SpeedyDrone listings for current payloads referenced above. Availability, lead time and final enterprise configuration should be confirmed before ordering. H30T links to the standalone payload, not the separate sold-out M350 + H30T bundle.

For aircraft and mounting hardware, see the Matrice 400 collection, Matrice 350 RTK collection, Enterprise payload collection and DJI Enterprise accessories. The Matrice 400 SP Plus Combo is the exact current aircraft listing; batteries, charging, connectors and payloads must still be scoped as a complete system.
