NO LONGER WORKS :-Z
HOW TO FIX MAVIC MINI BAD RANGE with this FCC FIX in 5 Easy Steps and the best part is it works on all DJI Drones 2020. This FCC Hack will force your European Mavic Mini CE drone into FCC Mode. I will show you how to Hack Mavic Mini and how to preserve the settings to keep Mavic Mini in FCC mode. ⚠ IMPORTANT ⚠ Experimenting with FCC mods, can void your warranty and care refresh agreement with DJI.
NOTE: After making this video I learned there is a difference in the hardware between the CE version for Europe and FCC version in US. You still get the benefit in the 5.8Ghz band as far as I can see, but not as much as full FCC. In general, any improvement to the 5.8GHz is beneficial, as it’s limited to 500m and where most CE owners are seeing a problem. The guy that reported this to me has been reaching 1600m out with no hiccups after doing this, but no information about the band he was using.

@typxxilps 4 жыл бұрын

That is false. The stronger the band the more range you get - except you fly above polluted are with a lot of buildings or appartements. The Hack does only one thing: it uses more power for transmission in both bands cause in the US the FCC allows more power transmission than the EU with its CE mode How far you can get depends on the area you are flying cause there are 5,8 overpoluted areas too in major cities.

Thanks for the good video on how to hack FCC power. I recently went through this procedure when I took my FCC Mavic Mini to a CE country. I had numerous connection issues and could barely fly to 400-500 m. With the hack, I still had strong signal at 1.5-2.0 km. I understand you will also get much better results if you hack the CE version. However, there are a few things to watch out for: - The initial power up with the phone set to a gps position in the US needs to occurs INSIDE the house, or any place where the Mavic Mini will not receive gps signal. Only then will it « think » that it is located in the US. - After that, in order to keep it thinking it is still located in the US, you need to connect your phone AFTER you started the motors with the remote controller. Similarly, you have to disconnect your phone BEFORE you stop the motors after the flight. Otherwise, the current position will be updated through the mavic’s gps. - The initial power up can be done with an Iphone, but you need the proper software (yes, I did it). Hope this helps !

I really really do love my Mavic Mini, even though it's the CE version, I just have to maybe get those Yagi adapters for the antennas, I would need for both 5.8ghz and for 2.4ghz Channels.. I guess what we can do is downgrade to the older Fly application and fly thus way. I really prefer to always have the latest software versions and so I'll just keep it the way it is..

no, the drone has a standalone gps module and gets its location from it

Hi Henrik.... with this method, will autonomous flight via Litchi still work? just asking since waypoint flying are gps dependent

tried the mini again this morning with an otg cable to make it easier with a longer cable, all connects fine with props started I connect cable in the kitchen to my fake gps position but as soon as I go outside it gets the gps satellites here and map reverts from nevada USA to my actual position in Spain again...Im searching how do I backdate this last update as it worked before ...try it

Thanks for the useful tips. However, I think you missed quite an important step here, on how to enable mock location: TO enable the mock location, you need to access the phone settings > about phone > build number > tap on the build number until developer options shows up > allow mock locations. It took me a few tries, as the fake apps would not show me the mock location.

so... i dont know if im doing something wrong or not, indoors its been changing over fine, if i do the same process outside while the drone has gps it wont change over, if i get it into fcc indoors and then take it out as soon as try to take off it swaps back over to ce mode. any ideas?

@jimsmithmtb 4 жыл бұрын

MRW Aerial Photography someone commented above about firing the drone up indoors before it has locked on any gps. Just tried it myself and it worked. Not ideal if you’re out and about already though. Is it meant to change to 2.4ghz? I’ve got it so there’s 11 channels but it’s on 5.8ghz

Hi there, first I want to mention you are making amazing tutorials! The second thing Is that I try something maybe that will work for some of the guys, i faced a lot of issues with city flying on 5.8, i couldn't reach even 20 m Height, what did I do I switch to 2.4 and choose 4 th channel, and it was working great, maybe you have any explanation how is that possible? Best Regards from Ohrid-Macedonia!

@TECHDRONEMEDIA 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you sharing your experience .. I think channel 4 is less polluted in your area, might not be for everyone

@typxxilps 4 жыл бұрын

Simple: the higher the frequency the less power and penetration and range it has ... the more likely intererence will hurt the communication. If RC pilots want to get high range they avoid even the 2,4 Ghz frequencies and chose 9xx Mhz, so 900 Mhz bands ,,,, no Ghz bands at all. That leads more reliable connection and better signal . So stay in 2,4 Ghz to get the best and check the wifi "pollution". If that is high than you are most likely above a private area with a lot of households and wifi networks where these signals will be stronger than yours if you are farer away cause there signal is stronger being closer to the drone. Than you loose the video connection first ... dji does not care about it cause flying over private crowded areas is forbidden in close to all countries ... at least EU, US, Africa, ... Best way to avoid these risks: buy a mavic air 2 cause that will use occusync 2.0 and that is a different story regarding range

Only consider this if you are experiencing connection issue

@typxxilps 4 жыл бұрын

depends on regulations and if you are flying to foreign countries be carefull cause in many african countries you can loose the drone by crossing the border and they confiscate the drones. And most of all tourist areas hate drones and ban them ... so most likely you will run into problems ... even as a resident. Drones can deliver transparency and look behind walls and can pictures objects close from the ground and show how rich some people are that do not want that.

Hello from the Netherlands. Thanks for your great videos which are very educational. I would really like to run the FCC range hack on my DJI mini but dare not because I am not sure if it will go wrong. Therefore some questions. Does this hack also work on the newer CE EAC DJI mini models. Is it possible to perform this hack with an Iphone, because I can find the app you use in the app store. Which app should I use. Look forward to your answer. Especially continue with your videos they are very worthwhile.

Hi Henrik, will this trick work on all Mavic Mini? Coz I'm gonna buy CE in Malaysia & wonder if this works or not coz no FCC stock currently with trusted dealers & mainly to save some money to travel after lockdown. This will be my first drone in my hands. Tnq. As always u give the best info abt products.
