Failsafe Behavior in Enhanced Warning Zone with Mavic Air 2 - will it force land?

[Yaros]

Hello, I'm in an enhanced warning zone now, I want to fly, according to airmap I'm allowed to fly, I'm on the edge of the zone anyway.
I found some people saying that if you're in an enhanced warning zone and the drone failsafe's (loses signal) it will force land, like when it runs out of battery. I found it strange, and googled it, and it seems to be the case.

I'm worried that it will force land and I will not be able retrieve it.
Did anyone encounter this before with the Mavic Air 2?
If not, I will go to the edge of the zone, to a safe area, and test it. But I would like to know the answer before I do test it myself.

Yes that is normal for all DJI drones when your in an enhanced warning. Probably so that nothing and will happen when it rises too high.

There was a YouTube video of guy testing that. It "should" not land.
In the video I saw it stopped responding to any movements except shortest path out of the zone (I don't even think it was a shorter distance to the home point), I will post the link if I find it.

Flying my Mini 2 in the Sonoran Desert yesterday, at about 1500ft from launch. I got a red warning that I had somehow drifted into restricted airspace. I kept going about 500 more feet to get to my destination & returned on my own. Checking online maps afterwords showed my drone was nowhere near restricted airspace.

I'm no expert, as a matter of fact I believe I've only had my drone (MA2) out a handful of times, I'm smack dab in a "enhanced warning zone." Actually, it's an Air Force Reserve Air Base. When I fire up everything, a warning pops up alerting me I'm in a Restricted Fly Zone (something like that). I can choose to ignore it, and I have a few times. I've taken her up, out and completely out of sight, I do get a lil nervous and hit the home button. But mine was never forced to land.

I've had a Helicopter fly over once very low after I had my drone up extremely high. I don't know if it was a coincidence, but they circle back a couple times. I haven't had it out since. If anyone is curious, I live in very close proximity to the RI Air National Guard Base. Shhhhhh.

I cannot edit this now, so just including the link yo YT video.
