DJI Mini SE тоже можно хакнуть - тот же пульт модели MR1SD25. Но процедура иная, понадобится на 1 раз iPhone. Хорошая видео-инструкция: th-cam.com/video/G2pm7KJAvw4/w-d-xo.html
today ill try and now say every time i open dji fly say that are changin the wireless setting... now work?? maybe..i must test near so...but say this everytime i open app is normal??
Thank you so much! This is very helpful! I've tried it and it works perfectly. I'm able to go 500-600m away and up to max altitude of 500m with no signal interference in the city center. Previously, I am only able to go around 200m of distance and around 150m of altitude.
Спасибо Добрые люди за проделанную работу. Все просто, понятно и сразу получилось. Низкий поклон вам в ноги) Этот ролик и сайт для пропатчивания пульта отличный пример как можно сеять пользу через сеть)
The hack works great. In semi rural area before the hack, on 5.8G, i could get 600-700meters max. Now i can go easily to 1600m and my best i 1800m, while 2.4g made it to 1200m and connection lost. Thx for the guide and making my mini usable :)

Witam mam pytanie do kolegi z Polski?? Czy to dalej działa i ile pokazuje ci kanałów od 1-13 i później 3 cyfrowe czy od 1-11. O ile procent Twoim daniem się zwiększył zasięg??
@@himen5555 działa ale powiem szczerze że prawie różnicy w zasięgu nie zauważyłem. Możliwe że mój dron był już wcześniej jakimś innym sposobem przerobiony bo ja jestem jego którymś właścicielem. Ale ogólnie bez problemu zrobiłem to według instrukcji i wszystko ok.
Привет. Зделал хак все работает четко ... В городе дрон улетать начал на 1400 -1600 метров на частоте 5.8 с лопухами на антеннах ... Очень доволен доволен .. при том что я с Украины а тут был открыт 5.8 ( но сила сигнала была зажата ) теперь все четко ...на 2.4 думаю теперь можно в поле улететь на 3 км ... Больше и не надо по батареи ... Спасибо за хак .. вы супер человек
От души, спасибо! Жаль, что на моем Самсунге не установилась старая версия приложения, пришлось взять телефон девушки. Здорово, что делаешь контент на англ! Удачи)
Despite all the comments here, this still works with the latest .600 firmware without any issues! The only problem I had is that the 1.1.2 Fly app kept crashing on Android 12, so I grabbed an older phone with Android 10, and did the Fake GPS part there. Also, a correction: the fact that you see 5.8Ghz and 3-digit channels in the Transmission settings doesn't mean it's succeffully in FCC mode. It also does that in CE mode. The real way to check if your drone is in "boosted" FCC mode is by looking at 2-digit channels: if you only see 1-11, you did it correctly, as you're in FCC mode. If you see 1-13, you're in "bad" CE mode.
I doubt the "2-digit" suggestion. US and Bolivia both allow max radio power. But the US only allows channels 1..11 in 2.4ghz range, whereas Bolivia lets channels 1..13
@@SergeiSokolov22 Oh, right, that makes sense. I was wondering why in your video you had 13 channels there... I placed the fake GPS in the US, I didn't know the restrictions worked like this. But what I said still applies: the fact that you see 5.8Ghz in the frequency field and that you see 3-digit channels doesn't mean you're in FCC mode. 5.8Ghz is also enabled in CE mode, but much more restricted. So I don't know if you can tell apart Bolivia and Europe modes...
I own Mini SE CE... Mini SE only detected by Fly app 1.4.8 above... so i uninstall fly app 1.4.8, apply fake GPS, install 1.4.8... still got 13 2,4 GHz altough i set location on USA... Going to step 2, apply patch to controller... and voila, success, i got warning "aircraft resetting wireless.. bla-bla" everytime i open Fly app.. which is supposed to be indicator that this hacks works.. right? i'll try range test my Mini SE tommorow... usually i got 200m distance max in urban area... let see if it improve.. i'm not shooting for long KM's range... 500m is enough for me to call it success
Thanks a lot for the hack. I did it two days ago and it's working like a charm. I have strong connection up to 300m away in wifi polluted area. I haven't pushed it beyond 300m but I can tell you it's very good. Thanks again.
today ill try and now say every time i open dji fly that are changin the wireless setting... now work?? maybe..i must test near so...but say this everytime i open app is normal??
Влад, добрый вечер! Делаю все по инструкции, телефон андроид перевёл в режим разработчика, зашёл на сайт и скачал версию приложения 1.1.2 и установил на телефон. Фэйк жпс скачено и установлено местоположение Боливия Санта Круз. Подключаю пульт и включаю приложение, все как в инструкции, включаю пульт и дрон, затем в приложении нажимаю галочки и выскакивает сообщение, что идёт сброс местоположения ( главное сообщение), но затем приложение просит зайти в аккаунт, игнорирую и открываю настройки в приложении; частота все-равно 2.4 ГГц. и частот 13 штук. Может подскажете что я делаю не так??? Раз пять удалял приложение и скачивал заново и повторял весь процесс заново, но не получается! Буду очень признателен если поможете выяснить в чем проблема!
@@darkonojic7494 sorry, I did fly a lot. Major disconnection proplems faced where my app exited miltiple times. Now I have to do calibrations lot many times. But its fly-able and yes am flying at 5.8ghz
Thanks for the comment! What was fisrt: applying the hack or upgrading the firware? In my case, I first used the hack, then upgraded firmware to v.600. Both on AC and on RC
@@SergeiSokolov22 already upgraded firmware on both RC and AC before applying hack. Only issue I've noticed is that the latest DJI app displays a banner saying it's trying to change the region setting, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
@@an1_uk that notice is legitimate: meaning the hack works. What version of the DJI Fly app are you on? Some mentioned that the most recent versions cause problems with the hack. I'm on DJI Fly 1.6.9 and will try to not upgrade it.
Бомба , все работает , разработчику респект , единственное что пришлось брать чужой телефон и туда скачивать приложение , потому что на моем телефоне было последнее приложение и при установке старого оно просто не работало ( думаю dji спецтально так сделали)
Hi again, I have applied the patch and it works sooo well ! My drone was "patched" not permanently to fcc mode. I can confirm that I had 11 channels and now, with thte patch I still have 11 channels. My drone is located in the USA (not Bolivia), that's probably why you have 13 channels in your video ? However this hack is fantastic and works so well. I will now remove the 1.08 version and jumps back to the lates DJY fly :-) Thanks again
Thank you ! working !! btw... is the patch available for download? or only trough the website? Once you patched the remote .. it also shows FCC mode on Litchi. just ignore the region settings.
@@dvsls good question. The page should not go down - github is free and backed by Microsoft. However, as a backup, I'd suggest two options: 1. you could just save the web page to your computer. It is self-contained, single html file, it only references external stylesheets. So a saved local copy of the web page should do the job as well, but I did not check yet. 2. the original hack was developed with Python language, here's the link to check: gist.github.com/sergiks/687415247eca5a2f2e1ed8677c3b4749 - two python files and the instruction. You could keep a copy of those files and run locally. Have to install Python and its "Serial" module.
I use my homemade parabolic reflectors together with the Permanent FCC Hack and I get over 1km with over heavily wi-fi polluted Sofia city... Sweet Keep well and be safe everyone! PS:. amazingly the FCC Hack also worked on the FCC model, which is really really cool.... 😁🇧🇬🛸
Great hack and video, and your dedication to helping others. i also need some advice. I first tried it using an android phone and after finally getting the 1.1.2 version to work, it required a download from dji servers to complete installation and dji took down these older versions. I tried some more but eventually i switched to an old iphone i had. It worked perfectly and showed 11 2.4GHz channels. Then i disconnected the controller and did the patch. Seemed ok. I connected it again to my android phone and it would show the message "switching wifi settings". But when i check in transmission, it reverted back to 13 channels, even though on the iphone i set it to USA. I thought it wasnt working. Then i read some comments and you said it doesnt matter that much what the 2.4 GHz band says. I tested the range and it went from 600m in urban to 900m which i thought was a decent improvement considering its not true fcc. Today i tried again and i get 600 again. So im still suspicious of the 13 channels. What do you think? Also, first test i got the black screen on camera feed after a message that i wasnt logged in, i logged in while flying. After that the app kinda restarted and i got back to the feed. RTH was not initiated. Sorry for the long comment and thanks again, itll be a wonder if you still respond. EDIT: I am on latest firmware, maybe thats why it fails? But i still get the "switching wifi settings" message every time so something must have changed with the controller.
Hi, thanks for the comment! Latest firmware seems to block this old hack, indeed. For most dji drones it is now a "common sense" to buy only crafts with older firmware and never update those. Firmware update is irreversible, and they close opportunities such as ignoring radio power limits, unblocking no-fly zones, turning off DroneID and other tweaks.
@@SergeiSokolov22 Thats a shame, so it wouldn't work even if done with the older method with internet adapter and command prompt? Also strange that i get the wifi message every time on android but not on ios.
Извиняюсь за предыдущий комментарий. Я посчитал что brave и chrome одно и тоже. Все получилось. Огромная благодарность. Правда теперь опасаюсь что слетит при установке обновления прошивки пульта. С последней версией dji fly успешно сотрудничает.
I did this hack before, and im 100% sure, the change of landcode from 0 tot 1, only affects the 5,8ghz band and not the 2,4ghz band. Thats why it is actually a hack to force de CE European model in to boost FCC mode, which is the normal mode in USA on channel 5,8ghz. They dont have any 2,4ghz mode.
Good afternoon! Thanks for the video! Tell me how many raids on the FCC you have, I'm worried that the mavic mini has a weak transmitter, won't it warm up from the increase in power?
hi Sergei, I might have your opinion, as no one has answered me. having updated android with version 11, i could not install the dji fly ver. 1.1.2, but only 1.4.8, I have carried out the procedure you indicated and I have displayed patches applied correctly, but every time before flying, the dji fly displays that the local settings will be set according to the current and normal regulations this message, the drone still uses the patch in FCC. thanks for everything Mattia
@@SergeiSokolov22 Thanks so much Sergei, for the confirmation, now I am more calm that the warning message, which I see before each flight, on the local settings, does not interfere with the Patch. cmq already with some test flights, I have seen a huge improvement on the power and video quality in 5.8ghz. I will continue the tests, with the dji fly 1.4.8, Thank you very much, you are making me fall in love with programming. You are great, hello
Hi Mattia, I got same problem with android 11, can only use dji fly 1.4.8. Is your drone still doing well with the hack?. I'm afraid to do the hack cuz mine is a mavic miniSE but it use same controller with mavic mini, and I think it might work.
@@tukangbobo hi tukangbobo, in my opinion 'you can try, from what I understand the patch, it works inside the controller program, so as long as it remains indifferent, to the change of local settings or if your model is a mini Se, the remote control it's the same. as for the improvements, they are remarkable, especially in 5.8ghz, in the midst of obstacles it is noticeably stronger, the transmission more stable, certainly calculate that each flight is subjective, it varies from user to user, but I can guarantee you that it works, take into account that Sergei and his Friend, the year developed and offered for free, where others ask for money, so a Thanks Sergei and friend, and the minimum. do not worry if at each reboot it forces you to click Ok, at the change of the local settings, the patch remains. hello and let me know
I just did this permanent FCC Hack, I'm super happy with my Mavic Mini now! I also have the Mini 2, and now finally I can use the same latest version of the Fly App for both my Mavic Mini and my Mini 2! My Mini 2 is fine, it goes really really far over Sofia city. Now that my Mavic Mini is permanently FCC Hacked I feel so happy that I can just charge battery and fly and the FCC Mode will always be enabled! Yeeeeeeeeey Thank You again bro, amazing work creating this patch!!! 🇧🇬🛸😁
Ivan, should we be seeing to channels 11, not 13? I've followed this but its going to 11, like you originally suggested to show you're supposedly in the U.S..??
@@SergeiSokolov22 I did get the message again after the hack but the hack worked and I'm very happy with it.. Haven't tried to fly yet because Sofia city has terrible weather right now, 100km/h winds at ground altitude... I see channels 1 to 11 though and that gibes away that the hack is working.. PS: I pointed my fellow Mavic Mini pilots to your channel and your hack video, they are all so happy, just like me.. 😁🇧🇬🛸 Thank You so much again! Sweet Keep well and be safe!
El que diga que se ha aplicado el parche no significa nada, pues en FCC el número de canales deben ser hasta el 11 y no hasta el 13 como aparece en el video.
Не пробовали сразу перейти ко 2й части и накатить хак на пульт? - может, получится? Если что можно будет откатить назад. Ещё вариант, раздобыть для хака 1-й Mavic Mini. Ещё вариант - хакнуть с iPhone. А потом уже летать андроидом как обычно.
With the 400 firmware. I have used the patch. Not sure if it was working because it was still showing channel 12 and 13. Then I used the Unpatch button. Now I am not able to pair the controller with the drone anymore!
Thank you very much, this is really great video. I just convert it to FCC. Considering that I most of the time flying with Litchi, Im wondering if I now disable FAKE GPS, and download latest new DJI FLY APP version, will DJI FLY againg turn my mavic mini to CE, or it will still be in FCC ? Do I need to use FAKE GPS with every fly on new DJI FLY app or I can deinstal FAKE GPS now when the mavic mini is patched ? Thank you once again
Hi, the answers were in the video. FakeGPS only required once to apply the hack. Than remove it and use drone as usual. The only drawback is the warning message that will appear re "resetting wireless settings" - meaninng the hack is working.
Hi I have followed all your tutorial to go with my mavic mini in fcc I wanted to ask you if there should be an update for the remote control the settings always remain in fcc ??? ah I registered to your channel :)
This is awesome thank you! Just FYI - I only have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Plus and the fly app V1.1.2 will not run on it. As I had nothing to lose, I followed your instructions getting the latest Fake GPS app from the play store and the DJI Fly v 1.4 from the Samsung store (the only one that works). The whole thing still worked perfectly. Plus, after patching, I tried the mini with the latest app and firmware from my iPhone and it also worked perfectly. Would be really interested to know how many db the CE version puts out in 2.4 and 5.8 ghz after patching. Thanks so much for sharing.
I too had the same problem with Android 11, I performed the patch with the version 1.4.8 patch successfully applied, but at each start, I see that the signal is adapting to the current regulations of my country, but in 5.8 GHz signal seems significantly improved, I would like to know if even if the message appears at every boot, the patch remains the same.
Sergei, any tips on how doing that with a Mini SE? The controller is the same from Mavic Mini. I did it, and it immediatelly gave me the "Congratulations! Your Mavic Mini is patched", but how do i make sure it actually worked? DJI Fly 1.1.2 didn't support Mini SE, so i could see the camera after faking the GPS, but got no data inside the Transmission tab. Thankss
Hi, I had no chance to try it with Mini SE. After applying the patch to the Remote Controller (RC), old 1.1.2 Fly is no longer needed. What do you see in the new Fly after the RC patch, when connectiong to your Mini SE ?
@@tukangbobo hello. there's no way i could make sure it's working. apparently not, because of the app, since 1.1.2 didn't support the SE, i couldn't check the data inside the transmission tab. My DJI Fly didn't show any message about region change at all, till today :/
Hi Bevon, thanks for subscribing! Mini 2 and Air 2 are more difficult to hack, yet possible. At the moment no hack that I am aware of. Fellow hackers mentioned they're looking forward to implement that some day.
I can't apply the hack. When I start older app it says that drone isn't connected, and there's nothing to chose in connectivity options - it's just blank
I installed the hack then used Fly 1.4.8 at the time. I never checked back on this page after the WARNING was posted about Fly 1.6.9 and newer, and the Mini and remote got bricked on Fly 1.9.8 It will simply not pair, and believe me, I have tried EVERYTHING possible to fix the problem, NOTHING worked. I am now considering buying a new remote but am not sure if the drone is also bricked in which case it would be a waste of money and time.
Hi Sergei Can I use my old Android 9 mobile to install older version DJI Fly for patching Remote Controller. After patching I will install latest DJI Fly to my Andoroid 10 mobile to use patched Remote Controller. Will this work?
3 different hardware versions of Mavic Mini, that I am aware of: FCC, CE and a version for Japan, under 200g. This tweak "freezes" the country settings of the drone selected with the help of Fake GPS. For FCC version, it might affect signal strength - which DJI might reduce when in CE countries.
So Mavic Mini FCC Version in USA better than Mavic Mini CE Version in USA on signal strength. If we look at the CE and FCC versions of Mavic Mini boards, we can see some component differences for the signal strength. Also thanks for this tweak.
There's videos showing this hack doesn't actually do anything in terms of upping the power output. In fact someone with a dbm meter got a lower power output after a similar hack. This hack changes the parameter in the controller to stop it checking the country location at each boot. Also, don't forget the craft itself has a transmitter and both controller and craft need to be talking to each other with the same power levels. Even if this hack did increase the dbm power output of the transmitter, the craft would still be on CE power levels...so you wouldn't actually gain anything. Yagi's and parabolic reflectors DO work, so you're better of trying those.
links to the "videos" would help. Power decrease might be in the case of FCC version Mavic Mini: "USA" mode offers higher power than "ZZ" set by the hack. For CE drones this hack has proved increased range many times. The only drawback of this hack - it is free, opposed to same solution sold by DroneHacks and affiliates.
th-cam.com/video/hXjr8DXxMp4/w-d-xo.html ...is the video I saw, but then there are a couple of others who do seem to get better distances. I'll do some more testing.
th-cam.com/video/485R81fF3ho/w-d-xo.html I actually have the same hack with different procedure. It was tested with both CE and FCC models in CE territory. The CE was tested with both 2.4 and 5.8 frequency. Both models gained distance except! The CE in 2.4 frequency. Both achieved roughly 2x more than stock in 5.8.
Hi John, while it is technically possible to send the byte sequence to the remote controller, please consider the versions of the firmware in RC and the AC and the risk to "brick" the RC+AC. I would NOT recommend using this hack in 2024.
This can be applied to the MR1SS5 remote controller too, but the win is questionnable. FCC remote version is only capable of 5.8GHz mode, and has radio power amps 10x "louder" than those in the CE version. As far as I remember for FCC remote there was a bug: once it was physically in the USA (or fake GPS once to think it is in the US) - the max radio settings persist without any additional hack whtasoever. My (unverified) suggestion is not to apply the hack to the FCC RC.
@@HD2You I think I seen notification. Did not delete the reply. Anyway, I have not tested the hack with the FCC version, since I only own the European CE one. Maybe you could test and share the experience?
@@SergeiSokolov22 I still wait for the Mini SE from China. This was my text: I read on online specs that the MR1SS5 is offering just 500 meters in CE countries. So I consider it is not a real bug to remain locked on FCC just because it can't offer 2000 meters in 2.4GHz because of no 2.4 GHz GPS antenna and chipset inside remote controller. I was considering that the remote can be set in FCC mode when somebody will discover what is needed to be modified inside firmware to make it operating at maximum power. When FCC not needed, to modify the firmware again. So I guess that it's not about GPS data but about a voltage value which is lowered from default or not and this is only on remote and not also on the drone. The GPS location only gives command to decrease voltage or not. Maybe some memory dumps from a remote like yours for FCC and CE setup will show the modified parameters and such thing can be done by some skilled person like the ones from sky hac ru Because I expect that is just a voltage difference between CE mode and FCC mode, some smart electronic guy can find where to modify hardware modify the controller and even to make some switch to allow more or less voltage, more or less range.
some say, that for the FCC version (remote MR1SS5) you have to do only once the following: 1. use fake GPS indoors to make the phone think it is in the US; 2. launch your normal updated fresh DJI Fly App; 3. switch on the drone, connect to the app (make sure drone does not receive GPS - stay far from windows) That's it. Switch all off. Remove Fake GPS. Go fly outdoors - they say the remote will keep in the max power mode. [disclaimer] I never checked that.
Hi Sergei, I have a mini se, everytime I try to connect the drone, the app comes up on the phone, but the drone doesn't. It keeps on saying I need to connect the drone. Any ideas. I have connected the drone manually to the remote but it doesn't come up on the phone. Thank you very much for the great work y'all do.
Hi Kyle, DJI Fly 1.1.2 is an old version and it does not "know" about the Mini SE model yet. There's a way to hack the SE, requiring an iPhone once: th-cam.com/video/G2pm7KJAvw4/w-d-xo.html (in Russian), but I never tried it myself, no SE at my disposal.
I tested it and i have mixed feelings : the range is for sure 2x maybe 3x . The first flight i faced major bug something go bad on the app and the connection and i didnt get live video of what the drone was doing . The drone believed that we have connection so it never did return to home after all this i clicked rth and the drone came back i had visual contact but i still didnt get footage something has gone really bad i manually landed because i could use controls only no video stream. I believed that this was a bug so i restarted the controller restart the drone and go to a second flight to test if the problem was fixed . i never lost connection again the drone had double range + no lag in footage in 200 meters only some lag at 900 meters . The hack is worth my experience was not good i faced something that never happened again i hope no one else face that .
I fly with the locked Bolivia regional settings for several weeks - so far so good. Never had such a problem. Check the bad flight logs - I use AirData.com web site: it syncs my flights from Dji and lets me see the map, all the messages, warning etc. Was there no video from the start? How did you launch?
@@SergeiSokolov22 yes it was i found out that something bugged from the app side i had control from the drone but not live feed . The second flight i had no problem and range was perfect double + . Thanks for the video.
@@dmichalopoulos4239 I’ve had that happen to me recently. In that time my phone was very hot from a sunny day and I believe it caused the actual app to malfunction with the phone overheating. I’ve experience malfunctions previous in both DJI fly and litchi on hot sunny days. I’m not sure if that is the same with yours
I tried to install app version 1.1.2 but got network issue when opening the app. I installed version 1.4.0 and did the hack. It worked, now when using the drone after it connects to gps I am promped with the network settings notification but still works, I got 1300m on open field, standard controller on 5Ghz
Добрый день, Сергей! Стал обладателем Dji mavic mini 1. Решил хакнуть по вашей инструкции. Частота 5.8 появляется но только после первого включения, потом слетает и только 2.4 остается. Пробовал откатывать пульт и заново хакать, итог один и тот же. Делаю через установку старой версии Dji fly, после хака удаляю его и фейк жпс, устанавливаю приложение с сайта производителя
наверное, стоит Auto выбор канала. Если выбрать вручную, он и останется, по идее, не соскочит. Кстати, экспериментов ради летаю в 2.4 с хаком - да тоже вполне норм связь. С ягами на антеннах, на 2.4
@@SergeiSokolov22 В общем так и слетает 5.8 частота. Я так понял с конца июля прикрыли лавочку, особенно тем у кого 600 прошивка. Я разные ПК, браузеры пробовал. Откатывал хак, ставил снова. После хака при первом запуске есть 5.8, потом после включения интернета для авторизации хак слетает. и больше 5.8. не появляется.

Hello together , I didn’t the same as you did in the video , but the dji app didn’t show me the message: AIRCRAFT resetting wireless network….. So i have no idea what’s the reason for this issue Maybe you have an idea??? Thank you
Hi, maybe you have the "FCC" version of Dji Mavic Mini? What is the "Model" on the Remote Controller? Should be MR1SD25 for the "CE" version capable of both 2.4 and 5.8 GHz.
Hello Sergei, I need to remove your patch from my CE controller (MR1SD25). I've read your description to "undo the patch" : 1- connect the controller to the computer. 2- Turning it on 3- and clicking on the button "undo patch" But after that I can always switching my controller in 5.8 GHz (the stock controller only got the 2.4 GHz). I've try all the previous steps to undo the patch with the "Experimental Web Platform features" unable and disable, and i still can't remove my controller to it's original state... did I do something wrong ? Thanks.
Hi, did it display the "Patch removed" message after the click? If it did, then after the drone and remote are outdoors, so that aircraft receives GPS signal, is should only offer channels 1..13 which are 2.4 GHz. If the location you are in suggest only using that range.
Привет, Сергей! У меня странный вопрос. Короче купил я мавик мини в Малазии. Живу в России. Там в магазине можно было заказать версию FCC. Сейчас гляжу настройки, а там в принципе нет каналов 1-13. Только американские. Но хак всё равно сделал, полагаю мощность он ведь тоже меняет в зависимости от локации. Получается я купил хитрую версию зря? (ведь у меня урезанный диапозон частот, только американский)
привет, на fcc версию, говорят, лучше не делать этот хак, а только раз сделать часть с fake gps. Без хака пульта. Якобы, так он застрянет в режиме штатов из-за бага, и будет в любой стране летать на мощности сша. А с хаком пульта мощь будет чуть ниже на FCC минике. Так что можно откатить пульт к исходному состоянию второй кнопкой. Я не проверял, у меня только CE версия есть. Но утверждали это в тг чате люди, заслуживающие доверия.
@@SergeiSokolov22 протестировал сегодня после хака. 400+ метров отлетаешь, теряет сигнал. Метод не совсем понял. Откатываю хак. Цепляю к андроиду с фэйк локацией со старым софтом dji. Включил выключил. И потом использовать на новом софте? (Летаю с айфоном)

After rewriting the firmware with dji assistant 2, the message appears again at each start that "the wifi settings are switched ...." and I see the FCC frequencies in the transmitter settings. So the firmware rewrite shouldn't cancel this hack?
Здравствуйте! Подскажите, а для прошивки пульта 01.00.0600 данный способ подходит? Встречал информацию, что хак частоты 5.8 можно сделать на 400ой прошивке, а на более поздних нет.
NOTICE: I did the hack it works fine double the range thanks for the video. The only thing is that with the later version you should first connect phone and controler and the power up the drone ! Because if you dont do that and the drone get gps signal it will change the wifi settings to your country , but the hack still remains if you power off the drone again and power on again when it connects without getting gps from drone it boots to hack mode with better range again.
The order of switching on does not matter. Use drone as usual. No specific order of switching on, off, connecting, etc. RC just keeps the selected settings, and the drone follows.
Fake location only required once: to let drone switch its settings and fix them witht he hack. After it is applied and FakeGPS app is disabled, you should see your real location, as normal out-of-the-box.
@@SergeiSokolov22 Yes, but I have the CE controller model but now it shows only 11 channels but does it have more transmitting power? I will test it ones the rain stops... Thank you for helping...
I just made a test and signal loss reported at 70 meter altitude just like before so there is no improvements... Maybe your hack works only with FCC models...
@@matheworman6308 the hack is specifically for the CE version. Improvement depends on the radio pollution in the area. I.e. where I live most WiFi devices work in 2.4 GHz mode. I select drone channel Manually (not Auto) - one of the 1xx channels (5.8 GHz). This significantly improves flying distance in my area. Maybe in your area, in opposite, everybody runs WiFi in 5 GHz mode, and to stand out you should switch to one of the 2.4 GHz channels (1..13). Also, do not fly directly upwards: drone antennas have weakest signal immediately underneath the aircraft. Fly some distance away to have a side view on the drone.
@@SergeiSokolov22 I know about antenna's con of silence and had them perpendicular to drone where the signal is maximum... Also I set the best channels manually at 5.8GHz... At 2.4GHz I was getting bad signal starting from 30 meters... I am going to add an Amp to fix this problem permanently... www.aliexpress.com/i/32604556557.html
Спасибо за патч, Сергей! на айфоне все делается гораздо проще с последней версией DJI Fly и прошивкой пульта v.600. Для симуляции локации на айфоне нужно поставить на мак через терминал sudo port install libimobiledevice, а затем симулировать локацию Боливии на подключенном айфоне с помощью idevicesetlocation -- "-17.783181" "-63.182198". Далее шаги остаются прежними, все отработало, 5.8GHz не слетает!
@@NicuIrimia Good! Hack only works for Mini 1 and Mini SE - same remote controller model MR1SD25. Firmware 01.00.600 seems to block installation of the hack. So it is better to install the hack prior to firmware upgrade.
Hi Sergei. Good day. The DJI Fly App 1.1.2 is crashing, it won't even open. Have you encountered this issue? If you have, what steps did you do to solve the issue. I am on Android 11. Thanks!

Thank you so much! This is very helpful! I've tried it and it works perfectly. I'm able to go 500-600m away and up to max altitude of 500m with no signal interference in the city center. Previously, I am only able to go around 200m of distance and around 150m of altitude.

Despite all the comments here, this still works with the latest .600 firmware without any issues! The only problem I had is that the 1.1.2 Fly app kept crashing on Android 12, so I grabbed an older phone with Android 10, and did the Fake GPS part there.
Also, a correction: the fact that you see 5.8Ghz and 3-digit channels in the Transmission settings doesn't mean it's succeffully in FCC mode. It also does that in CE mode. The real way to check if your drone is in "boosted" FCC mode is by looking at 2-digit channels: if you only see 1-11, you did it correctly, as you're in FCC mode. If you see 1-13, you're in "bad" CE mode.
I doubt the "2-digit" suggestion. US and Bolivia both allow max radio power. But the US only allows channels 1..11 in 2.4ghz range, whereas Bolivia lets channels 1..13
@@SergeiSokolov22 Oh, right, that makes sense. I was wondering why in your video you had 13 channels there... I placed the fake GPS in the US, I didn't know the restrictions worked like this. But what I said still applies: the fact that you see 5.8Ghz in the frequency field and that you see 3-digit channels doesn't mean you're in FCC mode. 5.8Ghz is also enabled in CE mode, but much more restricted. So I don't know if you can tell apart Bolivia and Europe modes...

Another satisfied customer! Thank you very much.
Hi again,
I have applied the patch and it works sooo well !
My drone was "patched" not permanently to fcc mode. I can confirm that I had 11 channels and now, with thte patch I still have 11 channels.
My drone is located in the USA (not Bolivia), that's probably why you have 13 channels in your video ?
However this hack is fantastic and works so well.
I will now remove the 1.08 version and jumps back to the lates DJY fly :-)
Thanks again
Thank you ! working !!
btw... is the patch available for download? or only trough the website?
Once you patched the remote .. it also shows FCC mode on Litchi. just ignore the region settings.
Hi, I test the hack and it seems to work now I should find a time to fly out my mini 👍
Thanx Sergei just did it wil fly tomorrow and test it. Greetings from Southern Africa
How was the result? any improvements in range?
Hey there, from South Africa myself! Wondering how the result worked for you?

please post afterwards if it helped
Just finished, it works. Thanks again.
@@SergeiSokolov22 one more thing: if the github page will go down in the future, can we get a patch to undo changes offline ?
@@dvsls good question. The page should not go down - github is free and backed by Microsoft. However, as a backup, I'd suggest two options:
1. you could just save the web page to your computer. It is self-contained, single html file, it only references external stylesheets. So a saved local copy of the web page should do the job as well, but I did not check yet.
2. the original hack was developed with Python language, here's the link to check: gist.github.com/sergiks/687415247eca5a2f2e1ed8677c3b4749 - two python files and the instruction. You could keep a copy of those files and run locally. Have to install Python and its "Serial" module.
It works also on CE version... range Increased about 20-30% in city
It is intended for the CE version in the first place )

PS:. amazingly the FCC Hack also worked on the FCC model, which is really really cool....
😁🇧🇬🛸
Great hack and video, and your dedication to helping others. i also need some advice. I first tried it using an android phone and after finally getting the 1.1.2 version to work, it required a download from dji servers to complete installation and dji took down these older versions. I tried some more but eventually i switched to an old iphone i had. It worked perfectly and showed 11 2.4GHz channels. Then i disconnected the controller and did the patch. Seemed ok. I connected it again to my android phone and it would show the message "switching wifi settings". But when i check in transmission, it reverted back to 13 channels, even though on the iphone i set it to USA. I thought it wasnt working. Then i read some comments and you said it doesnt matter that much what the 2.4 GHz band says. I tested the range and it went from 600m in urban to 900m which i thought was a decent improvement considering its not true fcc. Today i tried again and i get 600 again. So im still suspicious of the 13 channels. What do you think? Also, first test i got the black screen on camera feed after a message that i wasnt logged in, i logged in while flying. After that the app kinda restarted and i got back to the feed. RTH was not initiated. Sorry for the long comment and thanks again, itll be a wonder if you still respond.
EDIT: I am on latest firmware, maybe thats why it fails? But i still get the "switching wifi settings" message every time so something must have changed with the controller.
Hi, thanks for the comment!
Latest firmware seems to block this old hack, indeed.
For most dji drones it is now a "common sense" to buy only crafts with older firmware and never update those. Firmware update is irreversible, and they close opportunities such as ignoring radio power limits, unblocking no-fly zones, turning off DroneID and other tweaks.
@@SergeiSokolov22 Thats a shame, so it wouldn't work even if done with the older method with internet adapter and command prompt? Also strange that i get the wifi message every time on android but not on ios.
@@SergeiSokolov22 please update the video!
@@zoenagy9458 update in what sense? The video itself can not be updated. Description is already updated.

Извиняюсь за предыдущий комментарий. Я посчитал что brave и chrome одно и тоже. Все получилось. Огромная благодарность. Правда теперь опасаюсь что слетит при установке обновления прошивки пульта. С последней версией dji fly успешно сотрудничает.
I did this hack before, and im 100% sure, the change of landcode from 0 tot 1, only affects the 5,8ghz band and not the 2,4ghz band.
Thats why it is actually a hack to force de CE European model in to boost FCC mode, which is the normal mode in USA on channel 5,8ghz. They dont have any 2,4ghz mode.
Good afternoon! Thanks for the video! Tell me how many raids on the FCC you have, I'm worried that the mavic mini has a weak transmitter, won't it warm up from the increase in power?
спасибо. раньше думал что только через фейк gps
Подскажите, это применимо к DJI MINI SE? Кто-нибудь пробовал?
hi Sergei, I might have your opinion, as no one has answered me. having updated android with version 11, i could not install the dji fly ver. 1.1.2, but only 1.4.8, I have carried out the procedure you indicated and I have displayed patches applied correctly, but every time before flying, the dji fly displays that the local settings will be set according to the current and normal regulations this message, the drone still uses the patch in FCC. thanks for everything Mattia
Hi Mattia,
the warning message is more than OK: it indicates the hack is doing its job )
@@SergeiSokolov22 Thanks so much Sergei, for the confirmation, now I am more calm that the warning message, which I see before each flight, on the local settings, does not interfere with the Patch. cmq already with some test flights, I have seen a huge improvement on the power and video quality in 5.8ghz. I will continue the tests, with the dji fly 1.4.8, Thank you very much, you are making me fall in love with programming. You are great, hello
Hi Mattia, I got same problem with android 11, can only use dji fly 1.4.8. Is your drone still doing well with the hack?. I'm afraid to do the hack cuz mine is a mavic miniSE but it use same controller with mavic mini, and I think it might work.
@@tukangbobo hi tukangbobo, in my opinion 'you can try, from what I understand the patch, it works inside the controller program, so as long as it remains indifferent, to the change of local settings or if your model is a mini Se, the remote control it's the same. as for the improvements, they are remarkable, especially in 5.8ghz, in the midst of obstacles it is noticeably stronger, the transmission more stable, certainly calculate that each flight is subjective, it varies from user to user, but I can guarantee you that it works, take into account that Sergei and his Friend, the year developed and offered for free, where others ask for money, so a Thanks Sergei and friend, and the minimum. do not worry if at each reboot it forces you to click Ok, at the change of the local settings, the patch remains. hello and let me know
The old version of the Fly app APK isn't working on my phone.
I just did this permanent FCC Hack, I'm super happy with my Mavic Mini now! I also have the Mini 2, and now finally I can use the same latest version of the Fly App for both my Mavic Mini and my Mini 2!

Не пробовали сразу перейти ко 2й части и накатить хак на пульт? - может, получится? Если что можно будет откатить назад.
Ещё вариант, раздобыть для хака 1-й Mavic Mini. Ещё вариант - хакнуть с iPhone. А потом уже летать андроидом как обычно.
аналогичная проблема
With the 400 firmware. I have used the patch. Not sure if it was working because it was still showing channel 12 and 13. Then I used the Unpatch button. Now I am not able to pair the controller with the drone anymore!
When I patched again it connects.
I understand that it cannot be used with a more modern version of DJI Fly? only DJI Fly v.1.6.9?
Thank you very much, this is really great video.
I just convert it to FCC.
Considering that I most of the time flying with Litchi, Im wondering if I now disable FAKE GPS, and download latest new DJI FLY APP version, will DJI FLY againg turn my mavic mini to CE, or it will still be in FCC ?
Do I need to use FAKE GPS with every fly on new DJI FLY app or I can deinstal FAKE GPS now when the mavic mini is patched ?
Thank you once again
Hi, the answers were in the video. FakeGPS only required once to apply the hack. Than remove it and use drone as usual. The only drawback is the warning message that will appear re "resetting wireless settings" - meaninng the hack is working.

This is awesome thank you! Just FYI - I only have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Plus and the fly app V1.1.2 will not run on it. As I had nothing to lose, I followed your instructions getting the latest Fake GPS app from the play store and the DJI Fly v 1.4 from the Samsung store (the only one that works). The whole thing still worked perfectly. Plus, after patching, I tried the mini with the latest app and firmware from my iPhone and it also worked perfectly. Would be really interested to know how many db the CE version puts out in 2.4 and 5.8 ghz after patching. Thanks so much for sharing.
I too had the same problem with Android 11, I performed the patch with the version 1.4.8 patch successfully applied, but at each start, I see that the signal is adapting to the current regulations of my country, but in 5.8 GHz signal seems significantly improved, I would like to know if even if the message appears at every boot, the patch remains the same.
I tried 1.4 but that one wouldn't open either. I have an s20+
Awesome Video 👍

I installed the hack then used Fly 1.4.8 at the time. I never checked back on this page after the WARNING was posted about Fly 1.6.9 and newer, and the Mini and remote got bricked on Fly 1.9.8 It will simply not pair, and believe me, I have tried EVERYTHING possible to fix the problem, NOTHING worked.

Hi Sergei
Can I use my old Android 9 mobile to install older version DJI Fly for patching Remote Controller. After patching I will install latest DJI Fly to my Andoroid 10 mobile to use patched Remote Controller. Will this work?
Hi Milan,
yes, perfectly valid plan. I approve )
Apk mirror download has a bug and won't let me open the app,any solutions please?
what an absolute legend !
What about the hardware differences? Mavic Mini has two different pcbs, ce and fcc.
3 different hardware versions of Mavic Mini, that I am aware of: FCC, CE and a version for Japan, under 200g. This tweak "freezes" the country settings of the drone selected with the help of Fake GPS. For FCC version, it might affect signal strength - which DJI might reduce when in CE countries.
So Mavic Mini FCC Version in USA better than Mavic Mini CE Version in USA on signal strength.
If we look at the CE and FCC versions of Mavic Mini boards, we can see some component differences for the signal strength. Also thanks for this tweak.
There's videos showing this hack doesn't actually do anything in terms of upping the power output. In fact someone with a dbm meter got a lower power output after a similar hack. This hack changes the parameter in the controller to stop it checking the country location at each boot. Also, don't forget the craft itself has a transmitter and both controller and craft need to be talking to each other with the same power levels. Even if this hack did increase the dbm power output of the transmitter, the craft would still be on CE power levels...so you wouldn't actually gain anything. Yagi's and parabolic reflectors DO work, so you're better of trying those.
links to the "videos" would help. Power decrease might be in the case of FCC version Mavic Mini: "USA" mode offers higher power than "ZZ" set by the hack. For CE drones this hack has proved increased range many times. The only drawback of this hack - it is free, opposed to same solution sold by DroneHacks and affiliates.
video in Russian: measuring radio power of CE drone in both modes - th-cam.com/video/jkRr8w_NwnU/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/hXjr8DXxMp4/w-d-xo.html ...is the video I saw, but then there are a couple of others who do seem to get better distances. I'll do some more testing.
th-cam.com/video/485R81fF3ho/w-d-xo.html
I actually have the same hack with different procedure. It was tested with both CE and FCC models in CE territory. The CE was tested with both 2.4 and 5.8 frequency. Both models gained distance except! The CE in 2.4 frequency. Both achieved roughly 2x more than stock in 5.8.
Hi I saw his video now in 2024 and I'm still using Dji Mavic Mini, it is still possible to do the boost via browser ?
Hi John,
while it is technically possible to send the byte sequence to the remote controller, please consider the versions of the firmware in RC and the AC and the risk to "brick" the RC+AC. I would NOT recommend using this hack in 2024.
Will this work also for the FCC remote MR1SS5 (5.8 GHz: 4000 m (FCC); 2500 m (SRRC)) when using in Europe (CE)?
This can be applied to the MR1SS5 remote controller too, but the win is questionnable. FCC remote version is only capable of 5.8GHz mode, and has radio power amps 10x "louder" than those in the CE version. As far as I remember for FCC remote there was a bug: once it was physically in the USA (or fake GPS once to think it is in the US) - the max radio settings persist without any additional hack whtasoever. My (unverified) suggestion is not to apply the hack to the FCC RC.

@@HD2You I think I seen notification. Did not delete the reply. Anyway, I have not tested the hack with the FCC version, since I only own the European CE one.
Maybe you could test and share the experience?
@@SergeiSokolov22 I still wait for the Mini SE from China. This was my text:
I read on online specs that the MR1SS5 is offering just 500 meters in CE countries.
So I consider it is not a real bug to remain locked on FCC just because it can't offer 2000 meters in 2.4GHz because of no 2.4 GHz GPS antenna and chipset inside remote controller.
I was considering that the remote can be set in FCC mode when somebody will discover what is needed to be modified inside firmware to make it operating at maximum power.
When FCC not needed, to modify the firmware again.
So I guess that it's not about GPS data but about a voltage value which is lowered from default or not and this is only on remote and not also on the drone. The GPS location only gives command to decrease voltage or not.
Maybe some memory dumps from a remote like yours for FCC and CE setup will show the modified parameters and such thing can be done by some skilled person like the ones from sky hac ru
Because I expect that is just a voltage difference between CE mode and FCC mode, some smart electronic guy can find where to modify hardware modify the controller and even to make some switch to allow more or less voltage, more or less range.
some say, that for the FCC version (remote MR1SS5) you have to do only once the following:
1. use fake GPS indoors to make the phone think it is in the US;
2. launch your normal updated fresh DJI Fly App;
3. switch on the drone, connect to the app (make sure drone does not receive GPS - stay far from windows)
That's it. Switch all off. Remove Fake GPS. Go fly outdoors - they say the remote will keep in the max power mode.
[disclaimer] I never checked that.
Hi Sergei, I have a mini se, everytime I try to connect the drone, the app comes up on the phone, but the drone doesn't. It keeps on saying I need to connect the drone. Any ideas.
I have connected the drone manually to the remote but it doesn't come up on the phone.
Thank you very much for the great work y'all do.
Hi Kyle,
DJI Fly 1.1.2 is an old version and it does not "know" about the Mini SE model yet.
There's a way to hack the SE, requiring an iPhone once: th-cam.com/video/G2pm7KJAvw4/w-d-xo.html (in Russian), but I never tried it myself, no SE at my disposal.
Интересные решения.
А можно както где-то перепрашивать mavic mini и пульт на старую версию v01.00.0300?
Mate you are amazing THX!!!!
I tested it and i have mixed feelings : the range is for sure 2x maybe 3x . The first flight i faced major bug something go bad on the app and the connection and i didnt get live video of what the drone was doing . The drone believed that we have connection so it never did return to home after all this i clicked rth and the drone came back i had visual contact but i still didnt get footage something has gone really bad i manually landed because i could use controls only no video stream. I believed that this was a bug so i restarted the controller restart the drone and go to a second flight to test if the problem was fixed . i never lost connection again the drone had double range + no lag in footage in 200 meters only some lag at 900 meters . The hack is worth my experience was not good i faced something that never happened again i hope no one else face that .
I fly with the locked Bolivia regional settings for several weeks - so far so good. Never had such a problem. Check the bad flight logs - I use AirData.com web site: it syncs my flights from Dji and lets me see the map, all the messages, warning etc.
Was there no video from the start? How did you launch?
@@SergeiSokolov22 yes it was i found out that something bugged from the app side i had control from the drone but not live feed . The second flight i had no problem and range was perfect double + . Thanks for the video.
@@dmichalopoulos4239 I’ve had that happen to me recently. In that time my phone was very hot from a sunny day and I believe it caused the actual app to malfunction with the phone overheating.
I’ve experience malfunctions previous in both DJI fly and litchi on hot sunny days. I’m not sure if that is the same with yours
I tried to install app version 1.1.2 but got network issue when opening the app. I installed version 1.4.0 and did the hack. It worked, now when using the drone after it connects to gps I am promped with the network settings notification but still works, I got 1300m on open field, standard controller on 5Ghz
Добрый день, Сергей! Стал обладателем Dji mavic mini 1. Решил хакнуть по вашей инструкции. Частота 5.8 появляется но только после первого включения, потом слетает и только 2.4 остается. Пробовал откатывать пульт и заново хакать, итог один и тот же. Делаю через установку старой версии Dji fly, после хака удаляю его и фейк жпс, устанавливаю приложение с сайта производителя
наверное, стоит Auto выбор канала. Если выбрать вручную, он и останется, по идее, не соскочит.
Кстати, экспериментов ради летаю в 2.4 с хаком - да тоже вполне норм связь. С ягами на антеннах, на 2.4
@@SergeiSokolov22 В общем так и слетает 5.8 частота. Я так понял с конца июля прикрыли лавочку, особенно тем у кого 600 прошивка. Я разные ПК, браузеры пробовал. Откатывал хак, ставил снова. После хака при первом запуске есть 5.8, потом после включения интернета для авторизации хак слетает. и больше 5.8. не появляется. Где то пишут дождаться всех спутников, потом появляется 5.8 , но у меня нет такого) Сергей спасайте))
Hi Sergei, Thank you for your boost. Does this pack hack wifi.conf file disable_country=0 to 1 ?
Hello Akay,
frankly, I have no idea. I asked Andrey, the author of the hack byte sequence. I'll let you know if he replies.
p.s. Confirmed: this hack does exactly this: writes the setting "disable_country"=1 to the WiFi config in the Remote Controller.
@@SergeiSokolov22 Thank you
@@SergeiSokolov22 so this is a remote boost and not a full fcc hack? Very interesting video
божечки , для меня это тёмный лес ! я точно не справлюсь .
Please. If i perform the whole procedure via android phone, will the patch work on iphone?
Patch affects only the Remote Controller. After it is applied You can use any phone.
Hi Sergei, can i switch to ios tablet for flying or do i have to use android i used to set up hack with ?
Hi, after applying the hack you can use any device.
Thanks Sergei for Sharing, Happy to subscribe to your Channel, full support and sharing from me
Hello together ,
I didn’t the same as you did in the video , but the dji app didn’t show me the message: AIRCRAFT resetting wireless network…..
So i have no idea what’s the reason for this issue
Maybe you have an idea???
Thank you
Hi,
maybe you have the "FCC" version of Dji Mavic Mini? What is the "Model" on the Remote Controller? Should be MR1SD25 for the "CE" version capable of both 2.4 and 5.8 GHz.
@@SergeiSokolov22 Hi Sergei, The number on the remote control is MR1SD25
CE Version
Hello Sergei,
I need to remove your patch from my CE controller (MR1SD25). I've read your description to "undo the patch" :
1- connect the controller to the computer.
2- Turning it on
3- and clicking on the button "undo patch"
But after that I can always switching my controller in 5.8 GHz (the stock controller only got the 2.4 GHz). I've try all the previous steps to undo the patch with the "Experimental Web Platform features" unable and disable, and i still can't remove my controller to it's original state... did I do something wrong ?
Thanks.
Hi, did it display the "Patch removed" message after the click? If it did, then after the drone and remote are outdoors, so that aircraft receives GPS signal, is should only offer channels 1..13 which are 2.4 GHz. If the location you are in suggest only using that range.
Hi i have 1 question can we use either of mavic mini fcc or ce battery for mavic mini or only can use fcc battery in fcc and ce battery in ce drone?
Hi,
any battery that fits, works fine.
CE / FCC hardware difference is about radio circuits.
Thanks for this gonna try it
Привет, Сергей! У меня странный вопрос. Короче купил я мавик мини в Малазии. Живу в России. Там в магазине можно было заказать версию FCC. Сейчас гляжу настройки, а там в принципе нет каналов 1-13. Только американские. Но хак всё равно сделал, полагаю мощность он ведь тоже меняет в зависимости от локации. Получается я купил хитрую версию зря? (ведь у меня урезанный диапозон частот, только американский)
привет,
на fcc версию, говорят, лучше не делать этот хак, а только раз сделать часть с fake gps. Без хака пульта. Якобы, так он застрянет в режиме штатов из-за бага, и будет в любой стране летать на мощности сша. А с хаком пульта мощь будет чуть ниже на FCC минике. Так что можно откатить пульт к исходному состоянию второй кнопкой.
Я не проверял, у меня только CE версия есть. Но утверждали это в тг чате люди, заслуживающие доверия.
@@SergeiSokolov22 протестировал сегодня после хака. 400+ метров отлетаешь, теряет сигнал.
Метод не совсем понял. Откатываю хак. Цепляю к андроиду с фэйк локацией со старым софтом dji. Включил выключил. И потом использовать на новом софте? (Летаю с айфоном)
Похоже на старом софте надо летать. Ковыряю в том телеграмм чате инструкции
Dude, bro, I love you!!!!
I use the normal FCC Hack way, but this is on another level altogether!!!
I'm also a Senior Software Developer, Java & Salesforce....
Thank You so much for this video bro..
Keep well and be safe!
😁🇧🇬🛸
After rewriting the firmware with dji assistant 2, the message appears again at each start that "the wifi settings are switched ...." and I see the FCC frequencies in the transmitter settings. So the firmware rewrite shouldn't cancel this hack?
Hack affects a config file which persists during firmware updates.
Этот патч работает только на «Dji Mini» или работает и на других моделях DJi, так как изменение происходит только в переменной «Страна».
Только для пульта модели MR1SD25 (см. на пульте) - он идёт с DJI Mavic Mini (первым, европейской Central European версии), и более новым DJI Mini SE.
Здравствуйте! Подскажите, а для прошивки пульта 01.00.0600 данный способ подходит? Встречал информацию, что хак частоты 5.8 можно сделать на 400ой прошивке, а на более поздних нет.
подходит. Я накатывал, когда еще была 500-я, потом апгрейдился до 600-й, хак не слетел.
NOTICE: I did the hack it works fine double the range thanks for the video. The only thing is that with the later version you should first connect phone and controler and the power up the drone ! Because if you dont do that and the drone get gps signal it will change the wifi settings to your country , but the hack still remains if you power off the drone again and power on again when it connects without getting gps from drone it boots to hack mode with better range again.
The order of switching on does not matter. Use drone as usual. No specific order of switching on, off, connecting, etc.
RC just keeps the selected settings, and the drone follows.
When clicking "Apply Patch" returns "The Web serial API doesn't seem to be enabled in your browser." I enabled the Experimental Web Platform Features.
Hi, what browser make, version?
@@SergeiSokolov22 Google Chrome - Version 65.0.3325.181 (64 bits)
@@elnolasco this version is quite old. Please update Google Chrome to the latest version. Web Serial API is supported from v. 80.
hi, i followed all the steps, but in step 2 my computer does not recognize the connection of the dji remote control. how can i connect it?
hi, maybe operating system on your computer is incompatible. Works on Windows 10.
Сергей, здравствуйте. Я правильно понимаю, что данная процедура полностью разблокирует максимальную мощность и DH покупать уже не придется?
для первого Mavic Mini, CE версии - правильно.
Сергей,еще бы тест сравнение. На новых SE 21года будет работать?
Будет, ровно по этой инструкции.
It does not work, when using the latest DJI Fly app the map shows my local location in Europe...
Fake location only required once: to let drone switch its settings and fix them witht he hack.
After it is applied and FakeGPS app is disabled, you should see your real location, as normal out-of-the-box.
@@SergeiSokolov22 Yes, but I have the CE controller model but now it shows only 11 channels but does it have more transmitting power? I will test it ones the rain stops... Thank you for helping...
I just made a test and signal loss reported at 70 meter altitude just like before so there is no improvements... Maybe your hack works only with FCC models...
@@matheworman6308 the hack is specifically for the CE version. Improvement depends on the radio pollution in the area. I.e. where I live most WiFi devices work in 2.4 GHz mode. I select drone channel Manually (not Auto) - one of the 1xx channels (5.8 GHz). This significantly improves flying distance in my area.
Maybe in your area, in opposite, everybody runs WiFi in 5 GHz mode, and to stand out you should switch to one of the 2.4 GHz channels (1..13).
Also, do not fly directly upwards: drone antennas have weakest signal immediately underneath the aircraft. Fly some distance away to have a side view on the drone.
@@SergeiSokolov22 I know about antenna's con of silence and had them perpendicular to drone where the signal is maximum... Also I set the best channels manually at 5.8GHz... At 2.4GHz I was getting bad signal starting from 30 meters... I am going to add an Amp to fix this problem permanently... www.aliexpress.com/i/32604556557.html
Older dji fly app version will not run on my phone. I have an s20+. What do i do?
I also get an error on the github page and where it says "failed to open serial port"
Try with Android version 10 or smaller.
it should only have 11 channels of 2.4 if its successfully in fcc mode right?
will this work with any firmware version for aircraft and remote
looks like 2.4 channels 12 and 13 are available in Bolivia but not in the USA. So it is better to set Fake GPS Location to Bolivia.
as per firmware version, I only tested with the current ones as of December 2020.
Спасибо! на андройд 11 с версией 1.4.8 тоже сработало
Спасибо за патч, Сергей! на айфоне все делается гораздо проще с последней версией DJI Fly и прошивкой пульта v.600. Для симуляции локации на айфоне нужно поставить на мак через терминал sudo port install libimobiledevice, а затем симулировать локацию Боливии на подключенном айфоне с помощью idevicesetlocation -- "-17.783181" "-63.182198". Далее шаги остаются прежними, все отработало, 5.8GHz не слетает!
No longer working. APP vesion 1.1.2 no longer starts and in the latest dji fly app, the fake gps does not work.
older Fly 1.1.2 only works on Android up to v.10
Please try to get an older Android phone to apply the hack - needed only once.
@@SergeiSokolov22 Thank you, older phone thing worked! is this applicable to the mini2?
@@NicuIrimia Good! Hack only works for Mini 1 and Mini SE - same remote controller model MR1SD25. Firmware 01.00.600 seems to block installation of the hack. So it is better to install the hack prior to firmware upgrade.
Hi great solution ! Does it work on a Windows pc ? You use a Mac system and the patch is finished by ...io. Can you tell me. Thanks
Hi,
the hack works on WIndows 10. Earlier versions miss the driver.
I can not install the DJI Fly 1.1.2 application. I have this message: "Application not installed". The phone is Samsung Galaxy J3.
Hi Sergei. Good day. The DJI Fly App 1.1.2 is crashing, it won't even open. Have you encountered this issue? If you have, what steps did you do to solve the issue. I am on Android 11. Thanks!
Hi,
1.1.2 is an old app version, which only runs on Android up to v.10. Please try on an older phone, this is done only once.
поставил приложение 1.1.2, но никак не делается 5.8, сброс настроек идет, но остается только 2.4.есть какие мысли у кого?
GPS настоящий не ловится? Fake GPS работает? - проверьте приложением Карт - должно показать, что вы в Боливии.
Такая же беда, появилось решение?
