A normal usb c to usb c cable should work fine

But it's not convenient to take off phone and cable from the top port. I want to try to do this, while phone is mounted, using another cable.

When I fly 3 batteries, I should mount/unmount phone each battery. And for me it's not convenient)

Hello All,
I have created an android app which allows switching from CE to FCC mode .

APK is attached , usage (currently need to use bottom type C port for patch only):
1.connect mavic air 2 controller bottom type C cable to your android device , turn on the controller .
2.run my application and press the patch button .
3.change your phone usb connection to normal top one.
4.then open DJI fly app normally and you can obsereve the change in the transmission tab .
Link to the apk

If you would like to donate to me helping me buying my next drone and support me with my next projects :

Donate me

Does it work with 2S?
I tried it and everything looks fine. The APP patches OK. The transmission tab looks as should with FCC but the drone has the same range as before patch.

Thank you, it should be working now, I didn't follow the instruction properly. duh.
Yes the 1km mark is above the line now, can't wait to take my MA2 for a flight tomorrow.

Thanks for the help and OP for making the app.

Did it work on your drone?

Hi!
I have a question.
This app unlock both 5,8 ghz and fcc?
Or it unlocks only fcc??

Currently it only enables fcc but if your in a 5 ghz countrie you can enable both

I might find how to enable both in the future

In Russia 5,8 ghz is closed

@galbb Interesting application!
Does it increase both the 2.4 and 5.8GHz bands?
(Drone Tweaks claims their paid software does: FCC mod for DJI Mini 2)

I am curious if you have any knowledge about how this patch compares to the "Boost Mode" found on the Mini 1 model.
It is my understanding that drone had three levels: CE, FCC, and Boost.
Boost mode means all software limits on the transceiver are lifted, resulting in even better range than FCC mode. Drone-Hacks offered the Boost mode for the Mini 1 but clearly state there is no such mode for the never drones (relation OccuSync 2.0?).

Do you think a "Boost Mode" could be made for OccuSync 2.0 controllers?
It would be very impressive if you could manage such a thing!

The boost mode requires root access on the mini 1 and older drones, dji has patched the latest root exploit and an open source root exploit hasn't been made yet(drone hacks has a paid one).
