been flying at the same spot since i got phantom 4
kept getting message not safe to takeoff message
finally got it to take off by turning off geo
took off in auto take off mode
moved up and forward
said no flight zone and started to auto land
being only a few feet from ground was unable to maneuver fast enough to stop it from hiiting object
so it flipped over on its top chewing up the ground
what the fuxxk

Sorry for your frustration，seguinmark. I'd suggest you to sync your flight record and download the DAT file of this accident via DJI Assistant 2. Then send it to support@dji.com for analysis.

So if you look at the state of texas usa in your flysafe map..the whole state is in warning zone.
this is not acceptable...i just want to fly up and count my cattle...there is no internet connection
at the ranch to ask for your permission to count my cows....i want my account enabled to fly at any time or day

Sorry for your crash, can you please use this link and take a screenshot of your ranch so I can see it in the map.
Warning zones do not need permission and would not cause your aircraft to auto land.
Possibly you are next to a NFZ and it went into auto land (since the app said you were).
You do have control and just give it throttle and you can still fly and head back to you.
Your height will be limited but with keeping the throttle on you can fly back home.http://www.dji.com/flysafe/geo-system/unlock

It does not matter whether you are in the flight path of the training base or not, a No Fly Zone operates as a (usually) 5 mile exclusion zone in a circle centred on the base.

Go 4.5 miles from your ranch and try again

The link I have in my post shows you all the zones in the map. I was wanting you to get the map to your area and get a screen shot.
But you just said that there is an AFB nearby. You don't have to be in the flight path, the warning or NFZ has a radius and you said your ranch is 1.5 miles away.
What you need to do is unlock the zone and then you'll be free to fly there if it's a warning zone. If it's a restricted zone then you have to email and request permission and provide them with a bunch of forms including authorization from the AFB.
But you said it's a yellow zone so you can just self authorize that, you can authorize it up to 30 times to give you a month of flying. If you want it permantly unlocked then email FlySafe@dji.com and request that.

Just use a horse to count and tend to your cattle, problem solved.

I could use a horse...i could use a gator...i have one....let me ask you this...if your standing in a moving crowd of people... try to count them...it cant acurately be done...how ever if your overhead say at 100 feet
with video recorder its easy....just pause video and start counting

Like I said, if it's a authorization zone then you are free to fly after you authorize yourself. If it's a restricted zone then email them for permission.

Same with a horse, stop riding and start counting. Using a horse to keep track of cattle has worked for hundreds of years. It's hard to count cattle when there stampeding because of a buzzing drone has spooked them. Sell your drone and buy a horse!!!!!!!!!!!

The mind is a terrible thing to waste.
