    UAE and Dubai rules and regulations

    Hi. Most likely you will have to pay to a media productions company to do that. It is very expensive to fly drone for commercial purposes and usually fully established companies are the only ones willing to afford that investment.

    Flying from moving vehicle or boat ...questions

    It shouldn't be difficult for DJI to create a "return to pilot" option so DJI go can send the coordinates from the iPhone's current location and tell the mavic to go to that position if RTH is triggered.

    Please note that 3 hours are only for testing. This is not a training session. It is just the final evaluation. So you have to study yourself the material they will send you via email. That is something you can learn in 1 hour at home. If you are planning on using the mavic make sure you are...

    can DJI land or disable your drone?

    They can add a tracker that transmits a signal with a unique ID that can be read by authorities and identify the owner of the drone without having to capture it. It is like a virtual plate number visible electronically from miles away Sent from my SM-G900FD using MavicPilots mobile app

    I lost my Mavic and need help finding out what happened - FOUND BY STARZ!

    With RTH function available, why wouldn't the drone come back if you lose communication? Is it due RTH altitude not set up high enough? Or is there something else? Sent from my SM-G900FD using MavicPilots mobile app

    The first step to get your hobbyist certification for Dubai is getting the tests from sanad academy and getting your drone registered there. Then apply for the DCAA certificate online. Once all done you can fly in Dubai outside green and red areas. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    The videos from Burj khalifa, marina and other areas in YouTube are mostly from commercial pilots who have different type of permit and are allowed in the green zone under certain conditions and fees. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Hi. Green and red areas are no fly zone for hobbyists. Basically to the south desert is mostly the area that you can fly after you have completed your tests in sanad and you have gotten the certificate from DCAA. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots
