Hello everyone!
I recently upgraded from a Mavic Pro to a Mavic 2 Pro and wanted to test it in my back yard yesterday evening. To my surprise I wasn't even able to take off, since apparently my back yard lies in a no fly zone now that mandates(self) authorization. I didn't do that since this would've meant to share information with DJI that I had the feeling could be used against me some time (those three boxes that need to be checked). That said, I never had any issues taking off at the exact same spot with my Mavic Pro (1) so I assume this new NFZ is due to the Geo Zones 2.0 update (I really wish I hadn't pressed "update fly safe database" when setting up the M2P last weekend...). My question now is: if I actually follow through with the self authorization, what happens with the data that is being sent over to DJI? Will they forward it to/ alert local authorities or anything?
Cheers,
Daniel
