Just a thought, how many different frequencies does DJI put out on the controllers. Could my neighbors Mavic or Phamtom wind up controlling my or vise versa, especially at a distance where one signal could be stronger than the other?

If you get two Mavic controllers within a few feet of each other, you can get an effect where one transmitter will swamp out the other causing problems with one of the Mavic's - but - if you keep a few yards apart, you'll be OK ... That's because even if you are using the same frequency, there are digital 'identities' associated with each Mavic / Controller combo' which will ensure that Mavic A is controlled by Controller A, Mavic B by Controller B etc. That's what the 'Linking' process does when you link a controller to a Mavic. Unless you allow your neighbour to 'Link' their controller to your Mavic, you can be pretty sure that (without a Military-grade suite of electronics) they are not going to be able to take your Mavic under their control.Just a thought, how many different frequencies does DJI put out on the controllers.

There are a lot of emerging anti-drone systems that rely on blasting a concentrated Radio Frequency [RF] signal at the drone, to the extent that it overloads the receivers and the drone is forced into it's loss of signal mode and just lands. Some of these even look like future-tech ray guns!Good to know, thanks. I would guess it would be hard to jam us also.
