Freeflight 6 mod app - With Special Features

You wont need to register again, just use existing login
Beforehand I used login with "google" now modded version does not let me, i JUST created new account with my email.

1. How do I know if modded version is all set correctly? and indeed now applied modded settings? anything to see from interface/UI perspective?

2. GeoCage features will remain work as before? max 2.5 miles correct? I see its the same limit as before modding in settings.

3. Also now with modded I see GPS signs red at the top, its normal? (testing at home, no flight yet)

4. I installed the latest mod: FF6_6_7_6_FCC_SE_BATTERY.apk

5. The drone continue to use GPS tracking self orientation even with this MOD, correct?

6. Wifi settings, should I select 2.4 or 5? anything else I need set?

Thanks!

Everything will operate exactly the same as the non-modified version, with the exception that you will be in FCC Mode, and you will see the battery status defined in a better way at the top right of the screen.

All other settings are down to you to set as normal.

Leave the channels as auto, fly and enjoy

Ok so set Wifi section AUTO and the modded app will optimize to give me best signal/distance, cool!

To the Devs:
Perhaps, maybe you would like my idea,
Similar to how car GPS application as "Waze" can give car "where to avoid" a drive,
how about implement into Flight6 a mod, to help Anafi drone to have "sort of"
obstacle avoidance/crash prevention, by adding trees data, towers, building, into the GPS/Map data,
and instruct through the application, to avoid those places/areas and not let drone get too close to it?

What do you think? something Anafi mod/dev community could do?

Thanks!

Apart from the fact that its not as simple as you think it is to program in obstacle avoidance, nobody is going to waste their time and effort on the Parrot Anafi....... Its a dead product, there is no further development or support from Parrot or any other third party.

It is what it is, just fly it.

If you have the skillset to complete this then crack on. If you want all these extras then strongly suggest you look at DJI

before you install the mod FF6 you need to follow this step Install first from Playstore, copy the ... \\ Android \ obb \ com.parrot.freeflight6 com folder to a safe directory, uninstall then the app. Install modded FF6, then copy back the saved folder to the ... \\ Android \ obb \ com.parrot.freeflight6
 
Today is impossible to pay for the follow me mode or the flight plan because the google play does not accept to pay for these two to Parrot. says (the version of the application is not configured for billing through google play Is there any way to pay - activate these futures?
if there is please let me know. Thank you
 
Removed the modified version of the application.

Reboot the phone/tablet
From the Google Store download and install the genuine version of the application.

Using that version purchase the two applications.

Once paid for and confirmed working on your phone/tablet:

Use File explorer application and navigate to Android->OBB->Com.Parrot.Freeflight6 and copy that whole folder to another location/memory card as you are going to need to use this with the modified app.

Next, uninstall the genuine Freeflight6 application, reboot the phone, now install the modified version of the application.

Using your file explorer, the folder you copied to another location/memory card, you now need to copy that back to
Android->OBB->

Once copied you can start up the application and all should be good.

You need to ensure that all accounts you are using on the modified version, are the same as what you used on the genuine version otherwise it wont work.

Couple of pointers:

1. I always enable Developer mode on Android, saves headaches later down the line
2. I always keep a copy of the com.parrot.freeflight6 folder in separate location on my device, acts as a backup
3. I use X-Plore when doing all this, great app that can be downloaded from Google Store.

I always run into issues updating the app and can't get the 6.7.6 mod to work. When I install 6.7.6 from Google Play and then try to install the mod APK, the installation always fails. When I back up the OBB folder, uninstall the Google Play version, install the modded one and then restore the OBB folder, the app crashes when launching it. When I do a fresh install of either the modded APK (any version) or the official APK (any version), the data sync fails and it tells me to check my network connection (tried WIFI and mobile network and disabling AdGuard etc and it never syncs). How do you guys get this to work?
delete the freeflight 6 folder of your phote
 
Pixel 6 with Android 13 folder OBB is locked. Android 12 it was possible to access folder
 
I have been working on modding FF6 with some of the extra (special) features they are offering for the US army and USA version of the Anafi.

Since the 1st day of owning the Anafi - mapping has been an weak point in the App, the need for online maps and the fact that you cannot preload large areas, or choose the type of mapping has been pretty annoying.

Finally with version 6.7.0 these features are there, but not for us normal Anafi folks - until now.

My mod enables these features :-

1. Import and use custom map tiles.

Using standard (as used by Google Map / Microsoft Maps / OSM / etc) raster map tiles in a folder structures of map name / zoom / x / y.png

You can also import a ZIP file with the necessary map tiles, if you prefer to keep your maps separated in ZIP files.

It can handle zooms levels of 2 to 21.

2. Import KML files.

You can import KML files to show place markers, polygons, lines, etc - you can now mark out areas like places you can fly or not. Places of interest, and flying routes. Possibilities are endless with this.

KML will show up on the map as an overlay - most display style types are shown - line width and colours etc.

3. Automatic custom maps by putting your tiles / zip files / kml files in to the Phone / Freeflight 6 / Custom maps folder on your phone. Anything in this folder will be shown on the map without importing.

4. Display co-ordinates in the HUD Map, with Drone position, Dynamic position, and movable reticle. Co-ordinates can be copied to clipboard, and shared. Co-ordinate units are selectable between LATLNG, MGRS, UTM, and DMS

BATTERY VOLTAGE DISPLAY

THIS IS MODIFIED SOFTWARE, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, POSTED FOR INFORMATION & ENTERTAINMENT ONLY.

After many many hours of work on this, I finally managed to get battery voltage display. This is an experimental build with extensive changes, as listed below - so needs testing and feedback!

3) Created new class/functions to get Battery Voltage in to GroundSDK from ARSDK3
4) Modified GroundSDK BatteryInfo class to now include Voltage
5) Created new class/functions to update Voltage when it changes
6) Created new class/function to display Battery Level and Battery Voltage in Piloting Top Bar Right
7) Created conditional logic to trigger Battery Warning below 7190mV, and Battery Critical below 6800mV (existing warning below 20%, critical below 10% stay the same)
8) Made layout changes to reduce margins around top bar and widen drone status bar, as well colour adjustments - to fit new information.

Changelog (30 November 2020)

1) Cosmetic changes - Warning and Critical Battery colours removed transparency to aid visibility

Does anyone know ..is there a minimum android version that can be installed?
Iam trying to get a sony xperia z5 for barometer use and i dont know what android is it running and if it is posible to run these free flights
 
What you need to do is to:
  1. Download Freeflight 6 from the Play Store
  2. Open the app and let it load (1-2 sec)
  3. Download a file manager like Solid Explorer and grant all permissions it asks.
  4. Go to your Internal Storage > Android > obb (it might ask for another permission, just click use this folder)
  5. You'll see a folder named "com.parrot.freeflight6" which you need to rename to something else (eg: "com.parrot.freeflight5")
  6. Then uninstall Freeflight 6
  7. Download the modded version and install it, but DO NOT START
  8. Go back to the file manager, and rename the folder to the original name, which is "com.parrot.freeflight6"
  9. Start the modded version.
Thank you. It solved the problem.
