DJI Zenmuse V1 Speaker for Matrice 400, 350, and 300 RTK - 129dB High-Volume Aerial Communication Payload

Reach Loud and Clear

The ultimate aerial communication tool for public safety and emergency coordination.

The DJI Zenmuse V1 is DJI's first professional speaker designed specifically for multi-payload drone platforms. Engineered for critical missions such as search and rescue, disaster response, and crowd management, it delivers clear, intelligible audio with a massive 129dB sound pressure level. With an effective range of up to 700 meters, the V1 allows pilots to broadcast instructions, alerts, or coordinating messages from a safe distance, even in noisy or high-wind environments.

At a Glance:

• Max Volume: Up to 129 dB at 1 meter (Platform dependent)

• Broadcast Range: Up to 700 meters

• Weight: 690g ±10g

• Modes: Real-time (M400), Recorded, Text-to-Speech, and File Playback

• Ingress Protection: IP54 rated against dust and water

• Stabilization: Single-axis (tilt) gimbal for precise audio targeting

• Safety: Automatic volume limiting when on the ground

• Compatibility: Matrice 400, 350 RTK, and 300 RTK

Core Performance & Specifications

Rugged reliability for all-weather aerial address.

The Zenmuse V1 is built to industrial standards, offering weather resistance and a broad operating temperature range for deployment in challenging field conditions.

• Acoustic Performance: 25W nominal power with an 800 Hz – 8 kHz effective bandwidth.

• IP Rating: IP54 for protection against dust and splashes.

• Max Sound Pressure: 129 dB (Matrice 400) / 127 dB (Matrice 350/300 RTK).

• Environmental Range: Operating temperatures from -20° to 50° C (-4° to 122° F).

Subsystem Deep-Dives

Advanced Broadcast Modes: The system provides unmatched flexibility through four primary modes:

• Real-time Broadcasting: Transmit live voice immediately through the DJI Pilot 2 app (supported on Matrice 400).

• Text-to-Speech (TTS): Convert typed text into synthesized speech in multiple languages, with adjustable tone and speed.

• Record & Broadcast: Capture a message on the remote and transmit it for immediate playback.

• Audio File Playback: Import local MP3, AAC, or WAV files for repetitive messaging or high-quality pre-set content.

Directional Control & Targeting: Equipped with a single-axis tilt gimbal, the V1 can be precisely aimed between +20° and -120° (platform dependent). It supports Gimbal Synchronization, allowing the speaker to automatically follow the camera's tilt angle for targeted communication toward specific subjects.

Crystal Clear Audio Capture: When using the DJI RC Plus, the system employs directional audio pickup and environmental noise reduction to ensure that live voice transmissions remain crisp and intelligible, even in high-noise operation zones.

Safety & Redundancy

Hearing Protection: To protect ground personnel, the V1 features an automatic hearing protection mode. When the aircraft is not in flight and volume exceeds 40%, the system will display a reminder to prevent discomfort or injury.

System Reliability: The payload includes multiple built-in protection mechanisms against overcurrent, temperature spikes, and power surges, ensuring the speaker's long-term operational health in critical utility or public safety roles.

Ecosystem & Modular Expandability

Payload Configurations: The Zenmuse V1 utilizes the standard DJI SkyPort interface, allowing it to be mounted to any downward or upward gimbal port on compatible Matrice drones.

Third-Party Integration: For developers and specialized industrial users, the V1 supports both Mobile SDK and Payload SDK (MSDK/PSDK) for custom command and control integration.

Use Cases

• Public Safety & Traffic: Deliver real-time instructions to drivers at accident scenes or manage large event crowds.

• Search & Rescue (SAR): Communicate with victims across vast terrains or issue coordinating commands to ground units.

• Fire Prevention: Broadcast evacuation notices or safety warnings to residents in forest fire or flood-prone areas.

• Industrial Security: Issue verbal warnings to unauthorized persons detected on perimeter patrols of critical infrastructure.
