I live in a small town in Oregon (USA). We have an airport on the edge of town they don’t have a tower or a number to call (owned by the County & they don’t have a number to call for the airport). So I called a friend (he is a Pilot Instructor here for over 20 years) & has been flying for 40+ years out of this airport so I asked him who I should talk to about Permission to fly (the town is in the 5 mile yellow zone) he said stay under 400’ & have fun if you hear an airplane be nice & fly lower until they land.
The problem is, I use the map & unlock the area, it shows up in app that I have unlocked it but the Mavic still tells me I am in a NFZ (I have over 10 sat). If I remember correctly this all started after I updated to version .400?
So I kept updating & now I am in Firmware: v01.03.0700 & DJI GO 4 App iOS: v4.0.8. Using an Air pad mini.
When I say we have an airport its more of a paved landing strip long enough for personal planes & small personal Jets & that’s with a small prayer first. it is nice but just not a Comerial
Airport.
The only way for me to fly at home or footbll field (not being used when I fly) is to turn off the Geo in the app?
I'm not happy about turning off the Geo in the app. I still think that it is a good idea to have turned on.
So I am asking anyone for a better answer?{:4_181:}
Thanks
