Recording Modes

The Fly 6 CE Gen 3 automatically begins recording when powered on. Video files are saved in segments (e.g., 5-minute clips) and loop automatically, overwriting the oldest files when the MicroSD card is full. You can adjust recording resolution and other settings via the Cycliq Plus app.

Light Modes

The device offers multiple light modes to suit different riding conditions and preferences. Cycle through light modes by short-pressing the light mode button (if available, or via the app). Modes typically include constant, flash, and pulse patterns, with varying brightness levels up to 50 lumens.

Incident Protection (Black Box Technology)

In the event of an impact or if the device detects it has been laid down, the Black Box technology automatically locks the current video segment and the preceding segment, preventing them from being overwritten. This ensures critical footage is preserved. You can also manually lock a file by pressing a designated button (refer to device specific button layout or app for details).

The Cycliq Plus app provides comprehensive control over your Fly 6 CE Gen 3:

• Live View: See what your camera is recording in real-time.
• Settings: Adjust video resolution, frame rate, light modes, audio recording, and incident detection sensitivity.
• File Management: View, download, and delete recorded videos. Lock important files to prevent overwriting.
• Firmware Updates: Update your device's firmware directly through the app.
• Alarm: Activate an alarm feature for added security when your bike is parked.
