What I like most about what you do Ian is that you interact with your followers. We all have burning questions and you take the time to offer answers. I like that a lot. Also thanks for this update - I'll be doing it today and look forward to a bit more RF. I'm in the UK. Lee

[@charlesolrich5898]

Hats off to you Sir!!

[@MCsCreations]

Pretty interesting indeed! Thanks, Ian! 😊 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@DiraPictures]

The biggest benefit is the full power of the motors and you can check it easy with motor power output. Without the hack you must stay around 50% throttle to hover in manual mode. In Ham you only need 20%. Thats the easiest way to check If the ham file work!

[@oscr_zen]

thats a tremendous tip kind sir! Ive heard of that but then forgot about it and you reminded me!

[@ChrisHeeney-ki2bq]

Thanks you so much for this video. Unfortunately for some reason it has not worked on my avata 2. Do you have any idea what the reason could be? New updates blocking it maybe?

[@EdEditz]

Wauw! This works amazingly well. Normally when I fly behind some trees that are like 80 meters away from me, I always get picture loss. Now, with that file installed, it's just normal picture. It's so much better at distance and with penetration through buildings. Thank you Mads Tech!!

[@alexanderaskengren9399]

hoooly, thats like a punch when you first feel the boost in speed and accleration. the startup sequense with googles controller and drone was the thing that made mine go in to fcc. i didnt follow the sequence at first and i was still in ce mode. Thanks for sharing this "mod" i may be fine with this drone for now, i was relly in to bying a real custom fpv but i think i can wait now :)

[@KainniaK]

The range and penetration for mid range flying is absolutely phenomenal. I live in a small town with 3000 people, right in the middle of it and while laying in bed I can fly a full circle around my self, being 1500 meters away. As long as I stay above 30 meters or so. Except for a bunch of spots where the signal has to travel through less buidings. There is a school 600 meter from my house and I can be down to 7 or 8 meter and still have 3 mbit left. As a matter of fact, I have done some 100 flights while laying on my bed and there where plenty of occassions where the video quality went down a lot and the bitrate went to 1 mbit but I have not lost signal a single time. I usually just fly straight up when bitrate down down to much. The Goggles 3 and avata 2 is the ultimate fpv-noob-who-never-wants-to-worry-about-anything flying experience.

[@gimbalair]

I concur, after watching your video saying it wouldn’t work and losing signal behind a bush 80m away i thought f”£k it, nothing to lose. Bam, instant improvement, signal does not below 50mb, before it was down to 15. Auto is still locked as you explain. I was also losing signal inside the house, now I do not lose signal indoors at all.

[@spookymap6533]

Hi thanks for all your help and I can say that the hack does give you more penetration Also the return to home when lost signal dose turn around and retrace it’s step till it reconnect even turning 90 degree’s also I have seen the wobble when it starts to return to home

Hi Ian, great video and explanation. QQ, not directly ham file related - is top speed only available in manual mode? I’ve been a drone pilot for many years, but never dipped into FPV. I bought the Avata 2 to dip my toes, but I don’t have the time to get to a place where I’d be comfortable in full manual mode, but I’d like more speed!

[@gielzakb]

Hi @Mads Tech, taking into account your findings. Does it mean that with ham file we can switch Mini 4 Pro into FCC mode as well?

[@mariokotlar303]

Thanks!

[@richardamiss7000]

Hi Ian. Any chance of an updated frequency chart, including the 04? Or at least the Avata 2? I'd be so curious to see it compared to the Mini 4 Pro, but I assume you don't have one. Thanks as always!

[@freeflightfilms7403]

how do you store the ham file on mac? I used Text Edit. Also I see if you dont update goggles 3 , just the quad and RC the Ham file is working. I have the Avata 1 and the FPV, It seems to work avata better range than FPV drone

[@vincenttor2]

Will this be visible to dji when u sent it for dji care ? Or is there a way to Factory reset your drone again ?

[@giorgosschoinarakis9901]

I guess the ham file thing is a backdoor left from DJI firmware developers to be used by technicians performing service on drones so they could overcome restrictions and properly test the drone no matter where they are globally. Am I right on this Ian? 🤔

[@andre-7423]

Well done, is there a way to bypass the (slow)-motion-controller speed limit (which is ridiculous?)

[@PacoMarotoMP3]

I bought mine in Spain (CE), and I can confirm that after using the Drone Tweaks app and adding the file to the goggles card, I got rid of all the CE restrictions. Just tested today and I reached around 100km/h in manual mode without any issues. 69km/h was the max speed before, also in manual mode.

[@thomasz9975]

so you have to buy the app on Drone Tweaks to no longer have the speed limit? ( Is the hack function on iPhone ? )

[@PacoMarotoMP3]

@@thomasz9975 I already had the app before knowing about the file, and when I first tested the app without the file, I just got better range and penetration, max speed was still restricted. I had to install the app on an old Android 12 phone, it wasn't compatible with my pixel 6a android 14. No testing with iPhone.

How do I remove the height limit? I want to be able to climb mountains...

[@tommwaw]

So if I'm in CE region, and already have DroneTweaks app - should I also put Ham file in googles for full manual channel selection? I wouldn't want both solutions to conflict with each other.

[@ecarpo3479]

Is it worth doing this if you live in China. A quick search seems that China has their own version of FCC and CE but it’s already very similar to FCC.

[@ShopTonCartoon]

Thanks for this work ! 🤩 If I think… I just need create file ham_cfg_support Import in SD CARD Googles and turn on googles in first, Rc, and drone ? It’s ok ? :)

[@dailydronejourney]

Well, it seem not only for avata 2. My avata 1 with goggle v2 got impact. last time I did just connect the drone, motion controller and goggle to DJI Fly APP, then the update occur automatically. after that I try to do FCC hack but the manual menu become disable (Grey) thank for your explanation

[@bodeksrc8007]

[@japanesecactus]

Did you find out?

[@gerardstoran3809]

I still keep the sd card in 😂​@@japanesecactus

[@markus4979]

When do think if at all will manual selection be worthwhile/needed to choose FCC+Ham instwad of CE+HAM? For performance reasons during power loops etc. or perhaps in known enviornments where one will penetrate better more reliably in heavy congested area or perhaps mainly long range on flatland, instead of Auto mode? Or is Auto mode good enogh if not better with how well it switches between 2.4/5.8 and also able to use tri band and therefore fcc hack is not really needed/beneficial? Andy Kirby made some good test demonstration where CE auto mode was either performaning same or superior at times as it seems. 🔥🔥🔥

[@MadRC]

Range tests are complicated. It’s also not known if Andy was actually properly going an into ce mode as I have showed it’s possible to have FCC power with CE behaviour with the ham file. The simple realty is this. ham file and FCC is capable upto 1600mw. That’s a substantial increase in power and it’s open air real world use it’s going to have an effect. In some scenario it may be less noticeable as they have been able to improve CE with the 5.2Ghz mode however it will still help. As for Auto vs manual there are situations where Auto will be better and others where you really need to force it onto a specific channel to avoid it affecting other devices. Auto will be best for most users.

[@markus4979]

Yeah Like your thorough review / testing, appreciate the reply. Could you kindly explain in what situation manual would be preferable / beneficial? I also realise there is a difference in the performance during flight characteristics / interference or obstacles during the flight journey and finally at max distance, not easy to stress test everything i guess, the max distance being the easiest and tbh. (Btw. Bit surprised I haven't seen the max distance tests done with simply switching at the max distance location and comparing at different heights to take VLOS into consideration. That's what I tested last weekend and at first glance didn't see a huge difference).

[@FilipRadelic]

I transferred microSD from my old goggles so I've had the ham file on there this whole time and best I got in manual mode going down wind was about 23m/s. That + lack of manual channel mode convinced me the file did nothing. But yeah I've seen some people report that it removes the speed limit (after which I confirmed the file was there and tested speed again and got the aforementioned 23m/s), so my only conclusion is that it's a bug? (either it should work for everyone or no one) I'll try to factory restore everything and see if that changes anything.

[@DirtyThing20]

What about speed limit in sport mode for motion controller?

[@amelcamo]

very good overview and explanation Mads, just one question regarding the ham file, do we need this file all the time on the SD card in goggles or it can be removed ? I mean is this file read/loaded only once and then it is valid until we reconnect the drone to DJI app or update the firmware... ? I am asking because it is good to know if one can format SD card each time prior flying or we can not do so if the ham file needs to stay on the SD card all the time in such a case I can only delete/empty video file folder ... thank you in advance!

Since O4 nature seems to be very dynamic, it would be very interesting: 1.

Does it noticeable affect the battery life? 3. Does it increase the drone temperature?

[@w00dyalien]

This is the only solid, comprehensive and consistent information I found about this whole thing - great content, thank you!! Now, the results I got were not that conclusive to me, still interesting to observe... here it goes: (and no, radio is not my area, I'm just a curious guy trying to understand it and play) 1) still in original CE mode, I have asked a relative to walk the street with the avata 2 on hands doing zig-zag on the blocks while I was on the balcony with the goggles: when turned the first right, signal degraded drastically as expected, but still working; and it went dark when she turned the next left - so 2 turns on the zig-zag of city blocks, with massive concrete buildings between goggles and drone, were enough to kill the signal completely - honestly, I didn't expect to be better. 2) applied the ham file in CE mode (expecting a wow result due to drastic dbm difference), and the same exercise as above: again signal degraded drastically after first turn, but it didn't go dark after the second turn, it instead kept a poor quality video at 1Mbps for much longer, could even reach the third turn. Does it make any sense? Did the ham file actually work or I was "luckier" with the second try? Seems like the quality and bitrate between the devices degraded at the same rate, even though the ham'ed try kept the poor 1Mbps past the dark point of the un-ham'ed try for another block.

How does it affect the warranty? In the theory, it is "only playing" with law regulations, but not the drone possibilities itself. In my opinion it should not make a change and do not void the warranty nor care refresh, but any other opinions on that?

I'm in the Netherlands and I've tried the ham fcc hack but the goggles won't release the extra channels. I tried changing firmware but still it won't accept the ham hack. I'm sure someone here will have the answer to why the hack isn't working. Thanks in advance. P.s I assume because the 03 antenna is linear and the goggles have lhcp antennas that this will affect range but it doesn't explain why the hack won't take. Cheers all.

[@adrianbaldwin8832]

I'm guessing that file will only work on that drone avata 2 not the mini 3 pro

[@MadRC]

Yes DJI FPV drones not their consumer ones.

[@Deke-wy3me]

Is this worth doing in the USA?

[@MadRC]

It will give you some additional channels in manual mode but that’s it.

[@DavidinEssexUK]

It’s a shame there’s no way to tell if it’s active. I added the file a few days ago and I’ve not noticed a difference.

[@sennastas5995]

The way you turn in on also makes a big difference. First headset than controller and then you can turn the avata 2 on. Otherwise it is in ce mode. Hope this helps

[@berniepb3075]

@@DAFlysAre you testing with RC3 in manual mode?

[@DAFlys]

@@berniepb3075Rc3 yes. Not tested range in manual just sport mode. I may have to reset mine and see if it gets worse as it’s pretty poor compared to say a mini3.

@@MadRC So, more range?

[@thomasz9975]

Personally, it doesn't change the speed for me...

[@Luca-nn8jl]

for me too :(

[@MichasWelt]

It's not new the German KZbinr @skyscope has already discovered and tested it.

[@MadRC]

No one person has discovered it. I probably did on the day of release but did not fully know. There have been reports ever since day one. What was not confirmed by anyone else is exactly what’s happening including by the. Skyscope video . They did not actually prove rf power of the fact it works differently to others.
