Mavic Mini FCC Version Hack for Full Power in EU

[netsonic]

Our Italian Friends are on it. They made this video for the FCC Version of the Mavic Mini. It's about unlocking Full FCC Version Power when flying in Europe

This is allready a few weeks old, it is about unlocking full power for the FCC Version in CE but not full FCC Power for the CE Version..this is not possible unfortunately..

 

[WooZie]

indeed, but it could be useful for somebody who comes in vacation in europe from US with his little friend

Fcc hack works also with CE version. On 5.8 ghz band it boost some decibels just enough for double range. On 2.4 ghz there is no change in power (based on videos on this youtube channel).

Thanks, had missed that.
They're more than "on it", they've made it!

From what I saw on that, the app tells you that it switches power when used in a different zone? Anyone seen that on their mm when flying a fcc drone in another country?

Also, she says that without the hack you get about 1500 metres in the eu? I thought that a fcc drone was limited to 500 meters in the eu?

They have one where they tested both versions in Europe in the same conditions with no hacks. Turn on subtitles and translation to English.

Depends on the band, it's clearly shown in the video.

What channel do you use it on?

Automatic, i dont now

Seems like quite a lot of faff when you can get a CE version in the EU and have control at over 2000m and still have an easy path for warranty issues.

Has to be 2.4 ;-)

EDIT - ok it's an FCC, was "tricked" by the channel question ;-)

 

[chriscuk]

Has to be 2.4 ;-)

So an FCC model in spain without a hack "has to be 2.4" .... a tad tricky considering that it only does 5.8ghz.

 

[garrillaga]

Has to be 2.4 ;-)

it cames from philadelphia, model CP.MA.00000120.01
only 5.8

 

[webvan]

Oops, was tricked by the channel question above ;-)
That's pretty good range in any case. If you get a chance you could try the hack found by our Italian friends to get full FCC power.

I tried 1 time in city.

without hack --> 400m far and 150m high
with italian hack --> 1.100m far and 500m high

I guess I should have asked 'which band'.

Edit: I think I was right 2.4 and 5.8 are the bands, and the channels are within. I meant to ask which channel in the 5.8 band had he used?

You said that you get 1600m without the hack?
