DJI M350 Review - Surveying Edition: Pros, Cons & Comparison vs. the M300 RTK

Awesome content as always. Regarding your comment about the narrow P1 lens: I believe DJI now officially support the 24mm and 50mm lenses for that payload. See latest P1 firmware updates for evidence of this. 🙂

Thanks for the info! We actually have new 24mm lenses and are doing testing on that to see how it will impact the overall usefulness of the P1. Stay tuned!

does it come with a payload dropping mechanism or do I have to buy separate

You failed to mention the the updated IP55 rating the drone and IP4 rating on controller. You can fly the rain if necessary. Also I do not know if the Battery Charger cool down feature is an upgrade Charging Station from the M300 version. The new T65 batteries also have new fin design to help disapate heat for quicker cool downs while in the chaging station. The RTK antennas have also been upgraded to allow easier maintanance and replacement installation. Did you mention the FPV night vision capabilities,? I know not a mapping camera but great for SAR missions after dark.

Very informative. What are your thoughts on getting a M350 vs a used M300? Is it worth it to get the new tech on M350? Currently using Autel Evo 2 Pro RTK and looking for a larger more capable airframe for future work.

The answer to this would come down to personal needs / budget. But if you're considering the new Zenmuse L2, keep in mind that you'll need the DJI RC Plus that comes standard with the M350 (you'd have to purchase this separately if you went with the M300). If you plan to use the L1, or P1, both drones are great options.

Can not fly in Canada without "liscene". 😢😢😢😢. Too "heavy".

It's fairly simple to get a basic license
