Hardware Platform
Notes:
- SDK round ribbon cable only supports PSDK V3.x.x.
- DJI has stopped developing PSDK V2.xx and SkyPort on October 21, 2021, it is recommended to use SDK Round Ribbon Cable, X-Port or ** SkyPort V2** develops payload based on PSDK V3.xx. For the content of PSDK V2.x.x, please refer to Historical Document.
- SkyPort only supports PSDK V1.xx; if you still use PSDK V1.xx and SkyPort to develop payload devices, please refer to PSDK V1.x.x document.
Purchase Drone
Notes:
- For detailed instructions on the parameters of the drone and the use of the drone, please refer to the quick start guide of the optional model from official website.
- The picture of the M3D/M3TD in the table blew are the M3TD models. Cameras on the M3D models are different from that on the M3TD models. Please refer to the actual model that you purchased.
- The picture of the M3E/M3T in the table blew are the M3T models. Cameras on the M3E models are different from that on the M3T models. Please refer to the actual model that you purchased.
- The picture of the M30/M30T in the table blew are the M30 models. Cameras on the M30 models are different from that on the M30T models. Please refer to the actual model that you purchased.
- The maximum flight time is measured without payloads in a windless environment until the battery level reached 0%. Data is for reference only. Actual usage time may vary depending on the flight mode, accessories, and environment. Please pay attention to reminders in the app.

Development Kit
X-Port （Purchase）
To use the X-Port, parts in Payload SDK Development Kit 2.0 and API could help developers develop the payload which has gimbal's functions more easily.
X-Port includes the following accessories:
Note: When using X-Port to develop a load device with gimbal function, you can use Payload SDK Development Kit 2.0 are adapted to third-party development platforms.
SkyPort V2
Using the Expansion-Board, developers can choose third-party development boards to develop payload. SkyPort V2 includes components is as follows:
Note: The value meal for the mass production stage to purchase the DJI SKYPORT Adapter Set.
Other SDK Development Kit
E-Port Developer Kit: includes E-port adapter board (not compatible with SkyPort V2 and X-Port). It can be used for rapid development of payload device adapted to the DJI flight platform, and can also be integrated into the finished payload as a module, providing developers with a ready-to-use development platform.
OSDK expansion module (click to buy): only supports M300 RTK, can connect M300 RTK and Miaowei Compute Manifold 2 and provide several onboard computing platform adapter interfaces.
SDK Round Ribbon Cable(click to buy): According to the pin definition of the coaxial Integrate into the custom onboard computer, and connect the custom onboard computer with the flight platform through this cable.
PSDK Mounting Bracket(click to buy): PSDK payload can be fixed to the M30 series flight platform, and different types of PSDK payload can be quickly removed and replaced.

Purchase Development Board
DJI PSDK uses the STM3240G-EVAL(STM32F407IG) development board to develop and debug sample programs. It is recommended that developers refer to [STM3240G-EVAL(STM32F407IG)](https://www.st.com/en/evaluation-tools/stm3240g-eval. html) parameter information to select the development platform to be used.
