I remembered seeing this a few years ago: Don't know if it ever became a reality or not, but it would do the job.

That's the place!

I came across a nice location with some bright fall colors, so I couldn't resist some low-level shooting. Just a short clip <1 minute with my Mini 2 SE.

I'm pretty sure you got the geofencing from the DOD's munition plant near the Radisson / Steamtown location where they make military shells.

Just watched your Roa Island to Piel Island video. Very cool location!

Thanks for all the replies. Met the fellow yesterday, checked out the drone and all was well. Un-bound it and joined it to my account and all is working fine.

I was looking into buying a used Mini 2 from a local fellow. I downloaded the Go Fly app, and it was telling me the Mini 2 needs to "comply with remote identification". Now, I didn't buy the drone yet...just grabbed the app, but it seems like DJI is adding restrictions for the unit to work...

This may be off topic, AND I may be putting the cart before the horse, but I have been looking to get another drone. I had a Phantom 3 and Mavic Mini. Sold both. I was looking to get another mini (<250g) drone just for fun. Wondering if there are any non-Chinese alternatives to consider? Or...

I had to buy a SanDisk class 3 card after I got the Mini. I got a card error when I put in two other cards I already had. It just didn't want to work.

Thank you everyone. I’m good now. I appreciate the help. A new drone brings its own set of questions.

Thanks for the fast response. Just to confirm then, no worries of shutting off the motors if I hold down the stick all the way just to lower my altitude? I appreciate the help!

Hello, I am a Phantom 3 flyer who just got a Mavic Mini. Here’s my question... On the P3 controller, I move my left stick down to lower the drone, and once landed, push it all the way down until it locks to shut off the motors. The Mini does not have a locking position, and I seem to remember...
