I have a Mavic 2 Pro and have been using the DJI Self Unlocking as a recreational pilot since I live near an airport and it has worked flawlessly. I am relatively new to drones and have only been flying for a few months so I want to make sure I am doing what is required.
When applying for the DJI self unlock it says I will be required to provide information about myself and intended flight location including and this is where I have some questions. In the second part of including it says "ii. Documentation of your authorization to fly in the designated area, including but not limited to these examples : A certificate of authorization, operating license or permit from a national aviation authority - A letter of agreement with an airport; or A statement of work from a facility that has hired you for the operation - Intended flight location information, including: location, height and range of your requested flight area - Start date and end date of your intended flight - Other documents required by applicable laws and regulations".
I have a recreational license and the aircraft is properly marked with it's certificate number. Do I need all these things in list in my possession before I fly? Does being a recreational pilot change what is required? Does the self unlocking take care of all the requirements in the list quoted above? Is the list above only for a request to fly in a restricted zone?
