    Legality of shots that possibly weren't legal

    Yeah, a number of air traffic issues around airports with DJI's that have garnered such attention too & flight data would have undoubtedly been reviewed, along with that of previous flights. As for the DOJ and FAA having worked together for decades, a moot point as that isn't what we're talking...

    Legality of someone photographing our propertry.

    More of a corporate branding issue than personal I think but pretty much, yup.

    Dust and dirt takeoff and landing

    Go to a computer store and get a can of compressed air with the nozzle tube is my best guess.

    Legality of someone photographing our propertry.

    Actually SOME properties(likely very few) are registered, like the Hurst Estate & pictures of any kind (personal or business) are not allowed unless sanctioned.

    Legality of shots that possibly weren't legal

    Return to home feature failed and decided to go sky high

    I suggest watching a youtube vid or 3 on the mavic mini's flight capabilities. The drone can go up to (and past in some instances) 3000 feet (max allowed is 400 without permit AND license) which it may default to. Mine was the same way when I bought it and your error message was for being the...
