Hi Folks,
I am new here so go easy..;)
I retired my Typhoon H and got an Mavis Air 2.
I used to fly from my property in Ireland over an unpoplated area with the H with no issues.
I tried to fly from the same spot yesterday with the MA2 but the Fly app issued a warning.
I could see a stadium near here marked with a circle on the Fly app map.
I am the diameter of the circle outside the circle.
In other words, if the circle is 2 miles in diameter, I am 2 miles from the nearest edge.
The area I intend flying is in the opposite direction to the stadium.
I cannot find any other reference to a no fly zone over that stadium.
Do DJI invent their own TFR's (or No Fly Zones as they are called here.
If I am well outside the zone, why can't I fly?

did it prevent you from taking off or was it just a warning ,sometimes it will give a warning that there is restricted airspace near to where you are flying such as a height restriction or NFZ and then just watch out if it geofences ,when it hits the restricted area, if it does move back as soon as you can or it could force the drone to land

Hi OMM
It did take off but flashed the warning then
so I landed.
It said I could unlock it somehow.
I could try again and see what happens.
If it is forced landed, I can easily recover it
from where it will be flying.
There is actually a TFR around the hospital nearby too
but this does not show on the Fly app.
I am outside this one too.
Thanks for your reply

Turns out that the above warning is just a nearby NFZ warning and not a dont fly warning. I just ignored it and the drone flew fine.
I think the beeping was just the proximity warning from a wall,
Noob....?
 
Amel. As long as you are outside the zone it should be ok to fly.
My zone is nearby but I just stay away from it.
I think the drone will not fly in the zone anyway.
