I put in a similar LAANC request for a 0-foot grid while I was in San Diego for a house in the Middletown area a few months ago. The request went into limbo. It was for a family event, not commercial, but I was using my Pt 107 certification. When it stayed in review status for two days, I...

Our MA2 drones uses the same antenna that it uses to connect between the controller and the drone. Don't overthink it. You have to have an Internet connection to use the smart controller and the delivered controller. I was a bit confused about it until I dug into it further. Here is a link to...

eBay is where I sold my Mavic 2 Enterprise drone setup about sixteen months ago. The posting, bidding, sale and tranfer of my drone and money in my bank account went without a hitch.

I know this message is weeks old and hope some one reached out to you with some help. You can use the Fly Safe app with the authorization information to unlock the GeoZone that is giving you the message.

I will certainly miss it. Air Control does not send a text confirmation of a manual flight authorization request within 24 hours like AirMap did. For some peculiar reason, an approved authorization that I received for a manual request in a zero grid area in San Diego, does not show up in the Air...

Congratulations!

My hard card remote pilot certificate arrived today. That was ten days after I received my Certificate number. That is about 7 weeks from Passing the knowledge test to hard card in hand,

@Jafo28 So now I know. My SUAS Cert number appeared today in IACRA and in the Airman search result. It may have come a bit quicker for those of us already present in the FAA Airman Registry. The time frame from test result to certificate number was 43 days.

@projectarjun The Temporary certificate is good for 120 days. You can put the word Pending in place of the certificate number when you request authorizations through LAANC. It has been reported to work and updating after the cert number comes as not an issue. I am also still waiting for my cert...

@Greatsign1 I suggest cancelling the registration of the returned Mavic Air 2 and then registering the 2s. If it is still registered to you and sold to someone else, there is a possibility that if they commit an FAA violation away from or inside a FRIA, it could be attributed to you, as the...

If you check at the FAA website for TFR's, you will find that there are some recent TFR's put in effect for UAS operations regarding federal/civil/ state/ first responders/federal/civil and state properties and even for the US ADIZ. The fines imposed for violations are pretty stiff...

I received my Temp Part 107 certificate on the 15th. There were eight days from passing the knowledge test to issuance of the Part 107 Remote Pilot Temporary certificate. (valid for 120 days)

Thanks for replying and for the timely information. "From the thread title I imagine it’s the M1P and MPP controller the OP is referring to." That is what I was referring to. I meant to say Mavic Pro and Mavic Pro Platinum.

I could use some advice. Can someone tell me if the remote controllers for the Mavic and Mavic Pro series are the same unit?

I passed the test today with a 90%. The test took me 28 minutes to complete. Whicks1 description of the new questions is accurate. There were indeed more than a few strangely worded questions. I may have seen only a few questions that came directly from the study material.
