DJI O3 Air Unit FCC Hack
The DJI O3 Air Unit has just hit the market and already has a hack to unlock its full range potential. For users in the FCC region, the unit delivers the best range out of the box. However, in the CE region, the transmission distance is significantly shorter. DJI’s specs indicate a 10KM range in FCC mode compared to only 2KM in CE mode. These figures are under optimal conditions like flat terrain, no obstacles, and low RF noise.
Unlocking FCC mode boosts the VTX power from a few mW to over 1W. Remember, transmitting above 25mW without the proper license is illegal in many countries, particularly in Europe (CE).
O3 Air Unit Transmission Power (EIRP) and Range:
- FCC: < 33 dBm | 10KM
- CE: < 14 dBm | 2KM
- SRRC: < 30 dBm | 6KM
