I'm not sure if this has been posted but the FAA has revised their Washington D.C. NFZ from 30 miles to only 15 miles. This is good news people RC pilots living in the area.

Thanks for posting, couldn't understand the 30 mile restriction in the first place but at least now won't have to travel so far now to fly legally.

It was just a knee jerk reaction after that crashed landing on the WTH lawn. Thankfully they issues a more reasonable correction for your guys.

Can anyone who has the latest FW installed (1.6.4) please advise which NFZ it accounts for...the new 15-mile or the old 30-mile?  I ask because DJI has both of these on their NFZ page.  When I look at the No Fly Zone page, http://www.dji.com/flysafe/no-fly it shows the 15-mile NFZ.  
When I look at the Advance Unlocking page, http://www.dji.com/flysafe/geo-system/unlock it shows the 30-mile NFZ.
I fly within the 20-30 mile area and am afraid to update the FW if it won't let me fly.  Does anyone know which NFZ this new FW uses?  Thanks!!
