Wow, the technology in these drone amazes me everyday. I just found out what happens when you try to take off near an airport.
That's awesome brother. I don't plan on flying in restricted airspace but that's good to know. I was just trying to snap a pic of my buddies lawn. lolIf you get authorization from the ATC you can go to the DJI website and under your account (the one you used to activate the Mavic Pro) scroll to the bottom and you will see "My Unlocking Plans". Click "create" and follow the steps for advanced unlocking and then when you go fly, you will now be able to take off.
***Note that it assumes you have taken all of the necessary steps to get authorization to fly in that area***
Don't quote me on this but I think turning this off only disables the warnings and doesn't actually remove the flight restriction.But if someone turn off the Geo System in the setting, they can still take off. Any reason why DJI allows someone to turn it off?
I hear ya.....following this procedure would allow you to do this...fly at your own riskThat's awesome brother. I don't plan on flying in restricted airspace but that's good to know. I was just trying to snap a pic of my buddies lawn. lol
Check here to see if it should your location as something other than a Class C airspace...I wonder if that works in Canada. I got hard up and took the Mavvie out to our groups 3,500 sq ft hangar last weekend at a fully controlled airport and flew it around inside the hanger just to have some fun. Not a blip besides a warning that I was inside Class C airspace.
Neat. Shows my airfield as an authorized zone (yellow) that could be unlocked. It probably worked in the hangar because there was no GPS lock. Next Saturday is a drone pilots training seminar at the field all morning that I am attending and it said to 'bring your drone' so it will be interesting to see what happens. I see I can request unlock online (three day expiry) so I will do that Friday to ensure I don't get stymied on Saturday when I try to spool it up !
