Installing the app

After you make the payment, in a few hours you will receive an email with the install link. Installing the app from that link is very simple:

Launching the app and making sure FCC mode is active

After you installed the Drone Tweaks app, checking that it is active is quite easy:

  • Modern OcuSync drones (everything from Mini 2, Air 2 and Mavic 2 onwards, plus Neo, Flip and Avata)
    • iOS: you need to look into the Transmission tab and make sure the 1km horizontal line is landing on the left vertical scale at about 87dBm/Mhz. FCC mode is at ~87, CE mode is at ~91.
    • Android (including smart controllers): you need to look into the Transmission tab and make sure the "1km" text on the right side is above the 90dBm/Mhz horizontal line. If the text is directly in front of the line, that's CE mode. For FCC mode, it needs to be above the line.
    • see an example image for or
  • WiFi drones (Mavic Mini, Mavic Air, Spark etc)
    • There should be only 11 channels for the 2.4GHz band (the 2.4GHz channels are the ones below 100, the ones over 100 are the 5.8GHz channels). FCC mode has 11 channels for 2.4GHz, CE mode has 13 channels.
    • see for an example
  • FPV drone:
    • The FPV drone is special because it doesn't need to use the app while flying. Switching it into FCC mode is done simply by connecting it to the Drone Tweaks app. Once that's done, the drone will remain in FCC mode until you connect it to the official app. Even if flying without the app connected, the drone will remain in FCC mode. Unfortunately, for the FPV drone there is no visual indication in the menus of the mode the drone is in.

Updating the app

When a new version of the Fly or GO4 app is released, we update ours to match within a couple of days. You will then see a popup in the app asking you to update - just follow the steps it shows. If no popup appears, open the download section and download the latest version from there. There is no need to uninstall the old version first.

Getting your UDID (only required for iOS)
