What is Zenmuse V1

• Zenmuse V1 is DJI’s first speaker (audio) payload designed for multi‑payload enterprise‑class drones.

• It can be mounted on compatible drones such as Matrice 350 RTK, Matrice 300 RTK, or Matrice 400 (with correct controller).

 Key Features & Specifications

• Weight & Size: ~ 690 g ±10 g; Dimensions: 134 × 119 × 140 mm.

• Sound Output:

  • Maximum sound pressure: ~ 127 dB @ 1 m (≈ very loud, comparable to a jet‑takeoff)

  • Effective broadcast distance: up to ~ 500 meters (on Matrice 350 RTK / 300 RTK).

  • On Matrice 400, it can reach up to ~ 700 m effective distance.

• Broadcast / Audio Modes: Supports several modes: real-time broadcasting (live voice), record & broadcast, text‑to‑speech (TTS), and playback of pre‑recorded audio files (MP3, AAC, WAV) during flight.

• Mounting & Gimbal: Uses DJI SKYPORT; tiltable single‑axis gimbal mount (tilt range depends on mount). Can synchronize its tilt/gimbal with other payloads.

• Durability & Environment: Rated IP54 (dust & splash resistant), operates in temperatures –20°C to +50°C.

• Power: Rated power around 30 W.

What this means in practice: V1 transforms a regular drone into a flying public‑address / communication tool, capable of delivering loud, directional messages over long distances — ideal for emergency, crowd control, announcements, or public safety operations.
