DJI MATRICE 100 User Manual
Mounting an Extra Battery Compartment
It is recommended to mount the extra battery compartment on the opposite side of the center frame.
An extension cord may be required to connect the battery’s power cable to the center frame.
1. Mount the battery compartment (with the metal terminals facing the tail of the aircraft) onto the
mounting rails on the center frame. Then tighten the four screws (M2.5x5).
2. Connect the battery’s power cable to the XT60 port on the center frame.
When using two batteries, ensure that they have similar power levels.
Always power on the battery which is connected to the ight controller rst, otherwise the
ight controller will not function properly.
If the extra battery compartment is empty or if the Intelligent Flight Battery in the extra
battery compartment is powered off, disconnect the battery power cable from the center
frame before ight to avoid a short circuit.
When upgrading the battery rmware, insert the Intelligent Flight Battery into the battery
compartment which is connected to the ight controller. Upgrade rmware via the DJI N1
Assistant or a Micro SD card. Read Upgrading the Firmware (P63) in the Appendix for
details.
Mounting the Expansion Bay
Extend the center frame of the Matrice 100 with the expansion bay to mount DJI modules such as the
Guidance system or other products if necessary. Depending on your conguration, the expansion bay
can be positioned on the top or bottom of the center frame, and mounted onto the mounting rails or
the battery compartment.
Only one side of the expansion bay base plate is smooth. Attach your gear to the smooth
side of the base plate.
Two sets of expansion bays come with the Matrice 100. One of them has mounting marks
and a direction arrow to help you mount the DJI Guidance system.
1. Slide the base plate of the expansion bay into the slots of the two side plates. Then tighten the four
screws (M2.5x5).
