Airmap...hmmm hadn't really thought much about that. Went out and flew using it for the first time on this drone and seemed flawless with full access to drone's capabilities that I need. Will go to one of the "zones" that DJI has imposed and report back. Screenshot shows FAA recognized areas...

And how is that accomplished? NLD site app?

Anyone know if the Mavic Pro IS able to circumvent the zones or if it's able to "better" than the Mavic 2 because of "other apps"?

Just sold that one. Ugh. Thought it was Controller/App related...?

FYI. I was able to finally secure unlock for area within KLUK airport area. They needed a "signed authorized document" so I gave them one. ;) Thanks for the suggestion. I actually built my first drone way back in 2008 when I had to solder my own circuit boards etc. I'm thinking of trying...

I've used AirMap previously, but now the FAA tower is not receiving through them anymore as well it does not tie into the DJI NFZ's in the DJI Go app...

Basically...I'm seeing this in my area which is causing almost anything I fly near Cincinnati to be a total pain in the butt. I have 70 properties to fly over the coming month for a legal trial and this will all but make my life a complete pain to try and complete with the new system. Anyone...

This new DJI zone blocking and unlocking has become a complete and utter [Language Removed by Moderator] for me as a 107 pilot with my new Mavic 2 when trying to fly in FAA restricted and even in non FAA restricted zones. For instance, Downtown Cincinnati, no FAA restriction in the area but...
