Drone Tweaks for DJI Fly for iPhone and iPad

This package includes Drone Tweaks for DJI Fly for both your iPhone and your iPad.

DJI drones support several regulatory modes — FCC (US, Canada and a few others) and CE (Europe and most other countries) are the main two, with FCC being the most powerful.

CE is far stricter: the drone has to pull its radios way down, which costs you range and makes the link less reliable behind trees or buildings — especially on 5.8 GHz, the band you rely on in cities. Exact figures depend on your drone, and every drone page shows them.

The Drone Tweaks app switches your drone to full FCC power and unlocks bands some countries disable — 5.8 GHz in Russia and Israel, for example.

Already flying in an FCC country? Your drone already transmits at full power there — but travel to Europe and it would normally drop back to CE. The Drone Tweaks app keeps it in full FCC wherever you fly. Power, though, is only part of what the app does.

Depending on your model, it also unlocks:

• Altitude beyond the stock limit
• Higher top speed
• Full LED control
• Clean Screen
• ATTI mode and GPS-off mode
• No ActiveTrack distance limit — on drone models that already support ActiveTrack
• Autonomous waypoint missions — on drone models that already support waypoint missions
• 4G transmission (coming soon)

The exact gains for your model are listed on its drone page.

How it works

The Drone Tweaks app installs as a separate app on your iPhone and on your iPad. No jailbreak is needed, and you can use it with an unlimited number of drones.

The app is signed with a valid Apple developer certificate specifically for each device. To sign it, we need the UDID (Unique Device Identifier) of both your iPhone and your iPad. You can provide them when ordering or send them later through My license. See Getting the UDID for instructions.

Once a UDID is registered, it cannot be changed — Apple does not allow it. Make sure you send the correct UDIDs for the devices you will use when flying.

You can use the app directly with a standard controller connected to your iPhone or iPad, or use it to switch a DJI RC, DJI RC 2 or DJI RC Pro to FCC mode — with these smart controllers the switch runs through QuickTransfer from your phone. If you fly with an RC 2, RC Pro or RC Pro 2, the recommended way is the dedicated app for that controller. Not all drone models support these smart-controller setups. Check the Smart controllers page and your drone’s page before buying.

Your order is processed within 24h and submitted for signing to Apple.

Once the signed app is ready, you receive an installation link for each device. Open it on that device in Safari, then tap Install Application.

Before you fly

Raising transmission power without permission from the relevant authorities is illegal in most places. We recommend always following your local rules and regulations.
