    Restricted Zone Unlocking... What documentation do I need?

    Thanks.... I actually already got the LAANC authorization and I submitted that to DJI and they granted it. Looks like that restricted area is a mistake.

    Restricted Zone Unlocking... What documentation do I need?

    Ok... you are correct on the airspace issue but regardless that is not the reason why it is restricted. It is restricted because of that private airstrip, which is ridiculous.

    Restricted Zone Unlocking... What documentation do I need?

    This is the location. It's literally a farm with a grass runway.

    Restricted Zone Unlocking... What documentation do I need?

    I don't understand what you are asking. The unlock process asks for documentation to show that you are authorized to fly in that area. Since it's not an FAA issue, I cannot submit proof of a waiver. Hence my question about what I am supposed to submit. Just search 'Clarksboro, New Jersey'...

    Restricted Zone Unlocking... What documentation do I need?

    I disagree. There is no airspace issue with the FAA. This is an exclusively DJI-imposed issue. Also, it looks like it's even unlockable because when I click on the pin, it says "Restricted Zone Unlock Unavailable." I don't get it. There is an RC flying field less than 1/2 mile away. This...

    Restricted Zone Unlocking... What documentation do I need?

    Right, that's what I mean... it's not an FAA issue, it's a DJI issue. If it were the FAA, I could just get a waiver, but I can't since there is no issue with the flight. It looks like a small unmanned air strip nearby. Are you saying I should reach out to the airstrip? I hope not because I...

    Restricted Zone Unlocking... What documentation do I need?

    I need to a job for a client. I have my Part 107 license. I went yesterday and the app would not let me take off. Apparently the property is located in a red restricted zone, so I cannot get approval from within the app. I need to request an unlock through DJI's website. The application is...

    Can't see images or videos on SD card from within the app...

    I have a weird problem where I cannot view the images or videos from within the app that are saved on my SD card. I can view the images and videos that are saved in the internal storage, but not the SD card. When I click the play icon within the app, the screen pops up where the images/videos...

    Mavic 2 Pro lost, DJI denied responsibility claims user error

    That's true but it also doesn't stop automatically, which is what messes up most people. People who only fly in GPS mode get too used to taking your hands off the sticks and the drone automatically stopping and remaining in one place. I partially blame DJI for removing ATT mode, so people...

    Mavic 2 Pro lost, DJI denied responsibility claims user error

    The biggest problem is that people have no idea how to actually fly an R/C anything, including a drone. When GPS is working, you are not flying the drone, you are basically steering it. Once the GPS stops working, for whatever reason, and you have to actually fly the drone, people freak out...

    The Fly-More Kit is definitely worth it

    I agree that the charging hub would be better if it charged all batteries simultaneiously, but that would exceed the capacity of the stock charger. Also, the car charger needs the car to be on because of the amps required to charge the batteries. That's not something you can fix with a...

    Really miss D-Cinelike...

    I'm confused... so can the free version of DR edit H.265? I thought only the paid version can.

    The Fly-More Kit is definitely worth it

    I got my M2P last week. I'm coming from a M1P. I had three batteries for my M1P, and I quickly remembered how one battery is just not enough. I looked into buying just the batteries, but at $140 each, I figured I might as well get the Fly More Kit for only $40 more than the cost of two...

    Beginners mode turned off but no Intelligent mode icon except the RTF icon - MAVIC 2 PRO

    Also, you cannot be in sport mode. Make sure the switch on the right hand side is set to P (and not S or T).

    Poor Design On Remote For Mavic 2 Zoom Has Me FURIOUS and Now DJi Wants $200

    Yeah, I was surprised by that as well. When I first saw the USB-C cord in the box (and I didn't notice the Micro-USB cord on the side of the power brick), I assumed they had switched to USB-C. I guess they just kept everything the same on the controller from the Mavic 1, probably for cost-savings.
