AVSS PRS-M4SUS Parachute for DJI Matrice 4

The AVSS PRS-M4SUS is a dedicated parachute recovery system designed specifically for the DJI Matrice 4 Series (M4E and M4T). This safety solution is engineered to mitigate risks during complex operations, providing the necessary documentation and hardware to enable FAA Flight Over People (Category 2 and 3) and EASA compliance. By integrating a rapid-deploy parachute with a specialized flight termination system (FTS), the PRS-M4SUS ensures that in the event of a critical failure, your aircraft and the people below remain protected.

Advanced Safety and Integration

The PRS-M4SUS is a "plug-and-play" safety ecosystem. It features a custom attachment bracket that secures the system to the DJI Matrice 4 without interfering with sensitive GPS modules or onboard sensors. The system is powered by an independent electronic module, ensuring that even if the drone loses primary power, the parachute remains functional.

The onboard Autonomous Triggering System (ATS) constantly monitors flight telemetry. If it detects a critical failure, such as a motor loss or extreme pitch/roll, it deploys the parachute in less than 0.5 seconds. For pilots requiring manual control, the system also supports manual deployment through the DJI Payload Software Development Kit (PSDK).

Comprehensive Compliance

The AVSS PRS-M4SUS is not just hardware; it is a regulatory gateway. It is tested to ASTM F3322-24a and EASA MOC 2512 standards. This product includes the third-party documentation required by Civil Aviation Authorities (CAA) to approve waivers for advanced operations in urban environments or over assemblies of people.

FAQ

Does the PRS-M4SUS allow for legal flight over people? Yes. This system includes the necessary ASTM F3322-24a documentation and testing data required to apply for FAA Category 2 and 3 Flight Over People operations in the United States and similar EASA frameworks in Europe.

Will this parachute interfere with my drone's GPS? No. The included attachment bracket is designed to position the parachute pod and electronic module away from the DJI Matrice 4 GPS and RTK antennas to ensure no signal degradation.

Is the flight termination system (FTS) included? Yes. The PRS-M4SUS includes a PSDK-based flight termination system that instantly cuts power to the motors upon parachute deployment to prevent the parachute lines from tangling in the propellers.

How does the parachute trigger during a mid-air failure? The system uses an Autonomous Triggering System (ATS). If the drone enters an unrecoverable state, such as a motor failure or a sudden flip, the ATS detects the anomaly and fires the parachute automatically without pilot intervention.

What is included in the box? The kit comes complete with one Parachute Pod, the Electronic Module with batteries, the Flight Termination System, an attachment bracket, all necessary accessories, a rugged transport case, and the required compliance documentation.
