Flying at my home, which is over 13km from nearest airport, and 5km from nearest (and only) Helipad.Current Transport Canada rulesare 1.8km from Helipads and 5.5km from Airports.

Here's the GoogleMaps measurements to the airports and helipads:

Please explain why DJI GO 4 thinks i'm in restricted area?  The App is preventing me from using ActiveTrack because of the alert.
thanks

OH.. so maybe that is why I can't get active track...  Where I am the restricted air space around out smaller gerneral aviation airport is not a round circle.  it looks more like the letter D.. the dji map just paints a round circle around every airport for five miles. So, the place i have been flying are all restriced acording to dji even though it is not.

Its has been some time since Transport Canada has revised their regulations, DJI has yet to update to reflect these changes.

It would be nice at least if someone could acknowledge this and maybe send the information the right way so we can get an updated NFZ for Canadian drone pilots
