Hello,
I would like to fly my drone in the norther part of west Maui. There is an small airport over there so a lot of the area I want to fly in is controlled. I normally use the app and request and get automatic approval where I normally fly at home. It appears this airport doesn't have that and I need to request it online from the dronezone website.
I've looked over everything on the site and feel confident I can figure out the info I need. I was wondering how accurate I need to be. I need precise lat and long position and a radius. I don't really need a circular area and I'm right up against the 0 and 100 ft zones. If I'm a smig into the 0 with my radius will they deny it? There are a few different locations in various zones, 100, 200, 400.... I'd like, so each of those need their own request?
I'm not a commercially certified pilot, just recreational if that makes a difference. I've read if it is a 0 zone, there isn't a chance to get approval without being commercial, is that still correct?
I have a dji mini 2 if that matters. Most of this zone is enhanced warning, which seems like I would be able to fly anywhere in there w/o uploading my approval from the FAA if I get it.
Thanks for helping!
