    USA flying a DJI Mini 4 Pro - Holiday plans

    Fully understand why it would be in the drone, perfect sense and for the US there's a kind of logic for only enabling only with the increased weight of a plus battery. However in the UK there's talk of sub 250g RID which would mean enabling for a standard battery too.

    Hopefully that's the case, especially when UK laws change, not sure why it should only be enabled by plus batteries, Would like to know the logic behind that, unless its a legal/marketing requirement.

    USA flying a DJI Mini 4 Pro - Holiday plans

Even attaching an Operator Registration label adds weight bearing in mind 0.55lbs is...

    USA flying a DJI Mini 4 Pro - Holiday plans

    MARK (LI) Thanks for the info, already had "UAV Forecast" now added "Air Aware " be interesting to see this in operation. Slightly confusing, my dashboard shows M4P as "Serial Number" = <blank> and "Remote ID"= "No" probably because it's under 0.55lbs, do I still need remove it?

    UK - Taking off from public footpaths

    As a landowner with a public footpath, in our case this is a legal right of way which must be maintained, in fact there are a whole host of legal requirements attached to it, for example not putting a bull over 10 months old in the field, blocking the path or failing to provide a style for the...
