Since updating (but I do not know if it is related) I seem to be in a permanent NFZ requiring Authorisation.

I have loaded and unlocked the Authorisation even though on the DJI map I am outside the nearest zone by around 2km (1.5 miles)

I even went further away (2 miles) from zone and it made no difference.

Is there any log file I can look at to see which zone it is complaining about and where it thinks I am in relation to the zone?

Noticed on another post you're near Wokingham.  Any chance you're in the control zone for Heathrow?

No - not according to the DJI map. And certainly not prior to .600  


It might not be .600 but that is co-incident in time when it stopped working

Interesting.  Just looked at the CAA app and it's in the outer CTZ.  Shame the two don't sync up.  What type of warning do you get; are you able to fly without the NFZ authorisation or is it a hard lock down?

Well I just drove to another location and it is exactly the same. The error message is "ActiveTrack Flight Stopped__Aircraft Entering Restricted Area" and I have a valid unlock for Farnborough area. I can free fly anyway I like, its the intelligent flight modes that do not work (Quickshot)

flew mine earlier and I was prompted to download new NFZ info; perhaps they're not fully synced up across their platforms

Weirdly, i hit the same issue!! This was in gesture mode in follow. I start jogging and suddenly Spark stops with the exact message. Lucky i had it connected to my controller and phone. i brought it down (battery was already low at that point). Then i switch batteries and try again, then it works fine and even passed the place where it stopped before. I dont think im anywhere near NFZ... and i flew there countless times.

Well this is beginning to really annoy me.

DJI support said to speak to the people at flysafe.dji.com

Flysafe said to power cycle the Spark and reload the App - no change

I have been to 3 different (by hundreds of miles) locations over the weekend and all said the same - could not enter ActiveTrack flight.

Today I factory reset the Spark and refreshed the 0.0600 release installation.

It let me fly ONE activetrack (Dronie) and then refused to fly any more (same message about restricted area).
