Download AirMap. It'll show most NFZ areas clearly. BTW, takeoff/landing drones in LA city parks is a no-no. See below:

“Within the limits of any park or other City-owned Harbor Department designated and controlled property within the City of Los Angeles…No person shall land, release, take off or fly any balloon, except children toy balloons not inflated with any flammable material, helicopter, parakite, hang glider, aircraft or powered models thereof, except in areas specifically set aside therefor.”

Still, lots of the city is OK. Happy flying!

And after all their rules and regulations, they forgot to say "Have Fun"

Welcome my friend, before you put the battery in your bird read and reread the instructions and when you are ready to fly make sure you put your bird in beginner mode and keep it in that mode for a day or two until you get used to what it can and may be able to do and also read the post's on the forum here. Good Luck.

I always cringe when I read,.."my first drone.."
Go read all the posts on 'lost my drone', 'fell out of the sky' ad infinitum to learn what not to do. This should help. My first advice would be to not spend $1k on my first anything. Not trying to be a naysayer but,.. would you give a Mercedes to your 16 yr old who just got their learners permit?!!?

Funny you say that. I gave my daughter a mercedes in her 16th birthday last year.
