I have been flying my mavic in another suburb for quite some time.
Today I was invited back to a school there to do some group photos using my drone.
They wanted me to go only maybe 5 meters high.
However my drone would not take off, saying its a no fly zone.
I have flown my drone many times around this suburb and many surrounding suburbs, never an issue.
I was over 10km from the little hardly used airport. And outside the zone according to the map.
I only wnated to fly 5m high.

How can i bypass this? Its pointless even owning a drone if this is the case.
