Zenmuse L2 combines LiDAR, an integrated inertial system and a 20 MP RGB camera in one stabilized payload. It records geometry and photographic context for point-cloud production in a supported DJI Terra workflow. This reference helps teams evaluate an existing L2 installation, check aircraft fit and compare the requirements of a current L3 system.
The LiDAR records ranges while the RGB camera supplies color and visible context. Return settings, scan pattern, altitude and flight speed affect the point distribution; more return records do not guarantee ground recovery under every canopy.
Matrice 350 RTK and Matrice 300 RTK use the supported single-downward installation. Matrice 300 RTK additionally requires DJI RC Plus. Matrice 400 supports the specified single- or dual-downward installation; an additional payload can affect accuracy.
L3 requires Matrice 400 and its dedicated connector. An L2-to-L3 comparison therefore includes the aircraft, power equipment, mounting, capture settings and processing workflow rather than just exchanging a sensor.
Maintain a documented L2 capture, correction and processing method with independent check points.
Collect surface geometry and multiple returns where the vegetation and capture conditions permit.
Use a planned route and suitable ground verification to develop repeatable point-cloud deliverables.
Use a supported aircraft, correct gimbal connection, current compatible firmware and a supported DJI Terra workflow. M300 requires DJI RC Plus. M350/M300 and M400 have different mounting conditions; do not infer that the same combination or power equipment fits every aircraft.
A modular dual-battery aircraft for supported thermal, photographic and LiDAR payloads.
A modular aircraft for thermal inspection, photographic mapping and LiDAR.

DJI lists support with the specified single- or dual-downward mounting. Confirm the exact connector, firmware and accuracy effects of any companion payload.
No. L3 requires Matrice 400. Compare the entire aircraft and sensor system when planning the change.
