Rivabyte DPS-Y4P Parachute for Matrice 4T/4E: Lightweight emergency recovery for enterprise UAV operations
The Rivabyte DPS-Y4P Parachute delivers fast, reliable emergency descent capability for DJI Matrice 4T and 4E platforms. Its drawer-style installation and two M3 mounting screws support rapid deployment while the top-mounted E-Port interface enables seamless communication. Optimized for compact aircraft, the Y4P provides a dependable safety layer for operators flying in urban, industrial, or sensitive environments.
Key features
- Drawer mount installs quickly using two M3 screws for security
- E-Port interface simplifies integration with Matrice 4T/4E aircraft
- Replaceable parachute pack ensures efficient post-deployment reset
- Automatic deployment triggers on malfunction, loss of lift, or rapid descent
- Manual activation supported through dedicated DJI controller button
- Supercapacitor maintains 10 seconds of post-power-loss operating capability
- Controlled descent rate of 13–16 ft/s (4–5 m/s) during emergencies
- Supports aircraft loads up to 3.3 lb (1.5 kg)
- Lightweight 3.5 oz (100 g) module preserves aircraft performance
- Audible alarm provides clear ground notification during deployment
Telemetry-driven activation enhances safety during unstable flight conditions
Through DJI PSDK integration, the Y4P continuously monitors aircraft telemetry to detect malfunction, loss of lift, or rapid descent. When triggered, the system performs a propeller stop followed by parachute deployment. A manual deployment control on the DJI remote controller provides additional flexibility.
The internal supercapacitor provides up to 10 seconds of reserve power, ensuring deployment capability after an aircraft power failure. Its compact 3.0 × 2.5 × 1.7 in (76 × 64 × 44 mm) footprint supports efficient field installation.
Reusable design supports efficient operational turnaround
The DPS-Y4P enables fast system reset after a deployment by replacing the parachute pack kit, which attaches using three M2×12 screws. Weighing only 3.5 oz (100 g) and supporting aircraft loads up to 3.3 lb (1.5 kg), it provides a controlled descent of 13–16 ft/s (4–5 m/s).
Its environmental range from −4°F to 140°F (−20°C to 60°C) and altitude capability from −492 to 13,123 ft (−150 to 4,000 m) make it suitable for diverse operational needs.
Compatibility and integration
- Compatible with Matrice 4T and 4E aircraft using top E-Port connection.
- Integrates via DJI PSDK for real-time telemetry and activation communication.
- Drawer-style mounting supports fast attachment without internal aircraft modifications required.
- E-Port interface ensures stable system power and consistent data transfer.
- Supports simultaneous accessory use due to unobstructed top mounting position.
- Operates reliably across −4°F to 140°F (−20°C to 60°C) environments.
- Maintains full functionality from −492 to 13,123 ft (−150 to 4,000 m).
- Designed for lightweight fleets requiring redundant airborne safety systems.
