Using the SDK
DJI Mobile API and Onboard API are supported by the Matrice 100. Users can use these APIs to
develop their own applications to monitor and control their aircraft. Visit the DJI SDK page on the DJI
Developer website (https://developer.dji.com) for information on using these APIs.
Flight
Once pre-ight preparation is complete, it is recommended to use the ight simulator to learn how to
y safely. Ensure that all ights are carried out in an open area.
Flight Environment
1. Do not use the aircraft in adverse weather conditions including raining, snowing, fog, and wind
speeds exceeding 10 m/s.
2. Only y in open areas. Tall buildings and steel structures may affect the accuracy of the compass
and the GPS signal.
3. Avoid ying near obstacles, crowds, high voltage power lines, trees and bodies of water.
4. Avoid ying in area with high levels of electromagnetism, including mobile phone base stations and
radio transmission towers.
5. Aircraft and battery performance is subject to environment factor such as air density and
temperature. Be very careful when ying over 14700 feet (4500 meters) above sea level as the
battery and aircraft performance may be reduced.
6. The Matrice 100 cannot operate in P-Mode within the Earth’s polar regions.
Flight Limits and No Fly Zones
Flight limits on height and distance can be set.
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators should abide by the regulations from self-regulatory
organizations such as the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), the FAA and their local
aviation authorities. For safety reasons, flight limits are enabled by default to help users use this
product safely and legally.
When operating in P-Mode, the height limit, distance limit and No Fly Zones work together to monitor
ight. In A-Mode, only the height limit prevents the aircraft from going above 120 meters.
Maximum Height and Radius Limits
Users can change the maximum height and radius limits in the DJI GO app. Once complete, your
Matrice 100 will y in a restricted cylinder that is determined by these settings. The tables below show
the details of these limits.
