Hey man, i'm interested about that hack. I flied my avata today in a Mountain near Barcelona and it was an horrible experience, I lost signal at 50-70m, there werent a lot of trees between me and the a avata drone, so, about the hack, does that affect to some warranty?, will I still be able to update the avata next firmwares?
For the moment it's not a permanent hack it's just an app you use on your Android phone to make the controller think you are in US, and it works until you restart the drone/swap batteries. Then you apply it again; once you know how it's done it just takes 20 secs or so to apply it.
In the case of the Avata, the hack is semi-permanent, it won't reset to CE unless you use the Fly app again.
These hacks work with a license (about 40€), each drone needs to be purchased separately. Sometimes some drones get permanent hacks, like the Mini 2 or the Air2S which only work for certain firmware versions, but the android hack works for any version. The license include both the app and the possible permanent hacks that may appear in the future.
Before updating the app or the firmware to the latest versions, it's recommended to hold a few days and check on the website if it's compatible with the hack.
I had it permanent on the Mini2 and Air2S and I'm currently using the app every time I fly with the M3, nothing will make your DJI drone fly better and it's all software, so you don't need to open the controller like you do if you boost the signal with the Alientech boosted antennas, for example.
PS: One of the main reasons I switched back to DJi after Autel is because Autel drones don't have any FCC hack available. I did a mod and boosted the Lite+ controller, but then I had a controller emitting 4W but the drone was still emitting 0.1W, so it didn't make a huge difference while the hack makes both the drone and the controller emmit at FCC power... so yep, the hack is woth the price.
