    Flying in Spain

    Thanks for confirming. Looks like no flying of my Mavic 3 in towns (agglomeration of buildings) ☹️. All great advice - thanks again.

    Flying in Spain

    That’s good to know. I haven’t got my ID plates as yet. Did you make your own or order online? I’ll have all of the paperwork with me, which I think may address any issues. As ever, it pays to be sensible and respectful of the surroundings.

    Flying in Spain

    Thanks Jack0202 and OldGuy. I’ve read most of that content and info from other sites, but it’s still not clear. My questions are as follows - if I have a c1 cert, an operator ID from an EU member state, appropriate training evidence, the drone/controller has the relevant info attached and I...

    Flying in Spain

    Hi, I’m due to fly in Spain in 4 weeks. I’ll be flying a C1 certified Mavic 3. EU rules state I can fly close (up to 5M in slow mode) to uninvolved people and in a built up area. Spanish laws are slightly different - can anyone link me definitive regs? I’m going to a wedding and have been asked...

    Applying for C1 Certification

    Good news reaching out to DJI Support. They have agreed to send me the transfers. Alas, the time frame is the 10-20 days you mentioned JS47. They have agreed to expedite delivery, so here’s hoping.

    Applying for C1 Certification

    I’ll give it a go. I hadn’t considered the drone GPS location. Hopefully it only checks IP address of the remote. Yes, crazy this is geo-locked. Will update this post with any progress.

    Applying for C1 Certification

    Yip, looks like a trip to the border. I will give a VPN a go first. I have reached out to Support already - hopefully they’ll be able to sort it out without all of the messing around.

    JefferyS sounds like you were lucky not to come across any enforcement - I just don’t fancy taking the risk.

    Applying for C1 Certification

    Thanks JS47 - some great advice. I’m not too far away from the Irish border, so I might go to a coffee shop in the Republic of Ireland, log on to the free internet and then go through the process. I don’t have an address in the ROI though - I wonder would they permit sending to UK. I do have...

    Applying for C1 Certification

    Hi, I am in the UK and travelling to Spain in 4-5 weeks time. I have an RC Pro controller. I’ve updated all of firmware on M3 and controller, but I’m not getting an option to apply for the cert. Is there another way to apply. I don’t see any option in the Consumer section of the go app. Any...
