    Geo Fence Tragedy

    Thanks for the reply I was allowed to fly but shortly there after I received the "Landing" message. Now that the "VIP" restriction has been lifted I received the message 'you may unlock" when I go to take off, but then I get the message "unable to unlock" error As I said this sure does try...

    Geo Fence Tragedy

    NOFLY ZONE ISSUE

    Thanks for the reply and yes I think your correct. There is a FDC 0/4109 VIP restriction in place. that is a long distance from my location it is for Palm Beach FL. I think due to that DJI has "grounded me" I can't even start my drone indoors, this is absolutely absurd! This is an example...

    This whole DJI "NFZ" enforcement just doesn't sound right to me Maybe I can't find it but I can't find where DJI is listed by the FAA or any other American agency as an enforcement body. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction to find it. I went around half a mile from my location...

    Help Restricted Air Space can't fly

    I am new to this forum but have had DJI drones for years. This Restricted Air Space no fly zone along with software lockout is new to me. I understand being notified via the internal map of information about being near a no fly zone but disabling my ability to take off via software is over...
