DJI Maintenance Database - Official Service Intervals & Wearing Parts

Quick answer

DJI enterprise drones follow a factory maintenance program measured in flight hours or calendar time, whichever comes first: Basic service at 150 h / 6 months, Standard at 300 h / 12 months (wearing parts replaced), Premium at 900 h / 36 months (core components replaced). Agras agricultural motors are replaced at 1,000 flight hours.

How often does each DJI enterprise drone need servicing?

Intervals are flight hours OR time since activation/last service — whichever comes first. DJI may adjust programs by region; confirm with DJI Support or an authorized service provider.

DJI enterprise maintenance tiers by model
Aircraft	Basic	Standard / Routine	Premium / Deep
Matrice 350 RTK	150 h or 6 months	300 h or 12 months + wearing parts	900 h or 36 months + core components
Matrice 30 / 30T	Per actual use	300 h or 1 year + wearing parts	900 h or 3 years + propulsion components
Matrice 400	150 h or 6 months	300 h or 12 months + wearing parts	900 h or 36 months + core components
Matrice 4T / 4E	Per actual use	200 h or 1 year + wearing parts	Not offered — two-tier program

Which parts wear out — and when does DJI replace them?

The Matrice 400 manual is the most explicit, giving per-part replacement intervals:

Matrice 400 wearing-part replacement intervals
Part	Qty	By activation time	By flight time	Tier
Propellers	4	12 months	300 h	Standard
Gimbal dampers	8	12 months	300 h	Standard
Landing-gear mounting base	2	12 months	300 h	Standard
LiDAR dome cover	1	12 months	300 h	Standard
Arm assembly	4	36 months	900 h	Premium
Shell (front/upper/left/right)	1	36 months	900 h	Premium

How hard do Agras agricultural drones wear?

Agricultural propulsion carries 40–100 kg payloads — DJI defines much tighter cycles than for camera drones:

Agras propulsion service cycle (T50/T25 — same cycle specified for T40/T20P)
Module	Inspection cycle	Replace after
Motor	First check after 100 flights, then every 100 flight hours; also after ESC stall, abnormal temperature or impact	1,000 h
Motor internal resistance	First check after 100 flights, then every 100 h or 1 month	1,000 h
ESC	Every 6 months	36 months
Motor base	First check after 100 flights, then every 100 h or 1 month; after any impact	500 h

What this means when buying pre-owned

Flight hours are the real odometer. A drone approaching 300 flight hours is due wearing-part replacement; approaching 900 hours it is due core-component replacement. Always ask for the HMS (Health Management System) logs from DJI Pilot 2 — they record per-module health. Reboot Hub inspects every pre-owned enterprise aircraft against these same DJI standards before listing.

Frequently asked questions

How often does a DJI enterprise drone need factory maintenance?

DJI's maintenance manuals define service by flight hours or calendar time, whichever comes first: Basic service at 150 flight hours or 6 months, Standard at 300 hours or 12 months (wearing parts replaced), and Premium at 900 hours or 36 months (core components replaced). The Matrice 4 series uses a simpler two-tier program with Standard service at 200 hours or 1 year.

Which DJI parts are classed as wearing parts?

Propellers, gimbal dampers, landing-gear parts, air filters, battery release toggles and control-stick caps are typical wearing parts. On the Matrice 400, DJI specifies replacing propellers, gimbal dampers, the landing-gear mounting base and the LiDAR dome cover every 300 flight hours or 12 months, and the arm assemblies and shell every 900 hours or 36 months.

How long do DJI Agras motors last?

DJI recommends first inspecting Agras motors after 100 flights, then every 100 flight hours, and replacing them after 1,000 hours of use. ESCs are inspected every 6 months and replaced after 36 months; motor bases are replaced after 500 hours. Agricultural propulsion works under much heavier loads than camera drones.

What should I check on a used DJI drone's service history?

Ask for total flight hours and the HMS (Health Management System) logs from DJI Pilot 2, which record per-module health. A drone near 300 flight hours is due wearing-part replacement; near 900 hours it is due core-component replacement. Reboot Hub inspects pre-owned enterprise aircraft against these DJI standards before listing.
