DJI has introduced its Matrice 600 (M600) drone for professional aerial photography, filmmaking and industrial applications.

According to DJI, The M600 integrates the manufacturer's new A3 onboard flight controller and features advanced Lightbridge 2 video-transmission technology that offers high frame rates and HD live-streaming capability at distances up to five kilometres.

The M600 features a six-rotor system with a maximum payload of six kilograms, making it suitable for the full range of DJI’s Zenmuse gimbals, including the Z15 series and the Zenmuse X series cameras.

The M600’s carrying weight also allows it to fly the Ronin MX, DJI’s newest handheld and aerial three-axis gimbal.

The M600’s propulsion system is dustproof to simplify maintenance and increase durability and it has actively cooled motors for more-reliable flight, and retractable landing gear for full 360-degree, unobstructed imaging.

The M600 is powered by six DJI intelligent batteries and its customised battery management system and power distribution board allow all six batteries to be turned on and off via one button and keep the system aloft, should a single battery fail.

The M600 will fly up to 36 minutes with a Zenmuse X5 camera attached and up to 16 minutes with a larger camera, such as a RED EPIC. 

The M600 supports the DJI GO app, which includes a live video feed, battery and redundancy status, transmission strength and other data to keep the user informed of flight status at all times. The app also provides access to aperture, shutter speed, photo and video capture on any Zenmuse X-series camera, plus remote focus on the Zenmuse X5 and X5R cameras.

The M600’s retail price, including the integrated A3 flight controller with Lightbridge 2 and a full set of batteries, is US$4,599. Bundled with a Ronin MX it will sell for US$5,999.
