CAN a DJI app access info on my phone even when its not active??


Pay Attention:



You're right to be concerned β€” DJI has faced repeated allegations about data sharing with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). While DJI denies that it shares user data with the Chinese government, multiple U.S. government agencies (including the Pentagon and FCC) have flagged DJI as a potential national security threat due to its data practices.

Here's the straight answer:

Yes, the DJI app can potentially access data even when you're not flying β€” unless you take action.

Most apps β€” including DJI Fly, GO, or Mimo β€” can run background services and access data like:


  • Device model, OS version, and app usage
  • Location data (if permissions were granted)
  • Network activity and IP address
  • Stored media (photos, videos)
  • Possibly microphone or camera access

So if you keep the app installed, it may:


  • Continue running background tasks
  • Phone home (to DJI servers)
  • Log data unrelated to drone use

πŸ”₯ 25A 400V Bridge Rectifier Diodes – Heavy Duty Power Conversion for DC Projects



These KBPC2504 bridge rectifiers are workhorses in the world of high-current DC conversion. Rated for 25 Amps and up to 400 Volts, they’re perfect for applications where you need to take AC input and turn it into smooth, usable DC power.



βš™οΈ What it does:This full-wave silicon rectifier takes your AC input and flips the negative half of the wave positive, giving you pulsating DC. Add a capacitor bank and you’re on your way to clean DC voltage, ready to power motors, drives, or control circuits.



πŸ”§ My Use Case:I use these specifically in builds where I retrofit treadmill motors (90V DC rated) with aftermarket servo driver boards. These boards are DC-in / DC-out, so I use the KBPC2504 to convert standard AC wall power (120V or 220V depending on the setup) to DC before feeding the driver. These things hold up under load and don’t blink when motors start drawing surge current.



πŸ“ Tech Specs:




Max Repetitive Reverse Voltage: 400V



Average Forward Current: 25A



Peak Forward Surge Current: 300A



Mount Style: Chassis mount or bolt-through heat sink



Compact square-body design with faston tabs for easy hookup




🧠 Why it matters:If you’re running DC motor controllers, LED power systems, battery chargers, or any DC electronics from an AC line, you need a solid bridge rectifier. The KBPC2504 gives you the current handling you need without the bulk of a full SMPS or the fragility of underspec diodes.
