    "In NFZ" - Was not in NFZ

    I updated the iOS app, and the firmware to .0900. It solved the problem. Thanks again @bas4241 and @mkp2020 !

    "In NFZ" - Was not in NFZ

    It may be an app/firmware conflict. I haven't updated either since the release of 0.0700. When I tried to take off today I got the Authorization screen, but the OK button to proceed was greyed out. I'm going to update software and app to the most current version and see if it corrects it...

    "In NFZ" - Was not in NFZ

    Hey MPK, you got it! It was suntrust park. Just barely. In the dji Go app it's showing I'm in a NFZ Authorization Zone, however the DJI geo map online doesn't show it. I updated the apps NFZ yesterday when prompted. Any way to force a NFZ update? Do I have to update to the most recent...

    "In NFZ" - Was not in NFZ

    My attempted flight was yesterday, the 26th. I'll be around the same area again today so I'll see if I'm still grounded. Thanks for all your research and help.

    The airforce base is the location I called to get permission to fly. Any reason flying here a couple weeks ago wasn't a problem, and now it is? Is it because I haven't upgraded to .0800?

    I don't see anything there either. I spoke with the tower about 10 minutes before trying to fly and got clearance.

    No, I use my phone as my display, and had network connection.

    "In NFZ" - Was not in NFZ

    Today I was unable to take off from an area I've flown in before. A few weeks ago flying in the same location I received a warning with two checkboxes and was allowed to fly. This time, I was unable to take off. I was about 3 miles from an airport, and had permission from tower to fly in...

    How much do you push your Mavic?

    In a residential area, I lose a few bars of signal strength around 1,000 feet (around 300 AGL). I maintain VLOS, so I'm sure it's due to WiFi interference. My questions is: How much do you trust the Mavic to alert you of a weak signal, or return to home in the event of signal loss. I...

    Return to home setting issue

    Just looked at it, it's the 'Done' key.

    Return to home setting issue

    After you make a change to a field, are you pressing the 'enter' key? I found my RTH height wouldn't stick unless i pressed 'enter'.

    Mavic Range in Residential Area?? Anyone Know??

    About 3,300 ft. is my max in a residential area. No sign of signal degradation, maintained smooth video, and healthydrones.com reported a very good signal the entire flight. I kept altitude high, around 350, and was able to maintain LOS with controller.
