Take your aircraft out of the NFZ. Start the motors. Shut the aircraft down. It must have a valid GPS fix outside any NFZ. Cover the GPS antenna per the video. Do not let it get a GPS fix inside the NFZ. Go fly in atti mode inside your building. Once it identifies its location inside a NFZ, it has to get a valid location outside of NFZ before it will activate again. If you’ve tried to fly inside that building, covered the GPS antenna and tried to fly again you’re spinning your wheels. It’s locked out until it gets a fix outside a NFZ. I proved this today in reverse. I drove to a fire house, 1 block from a prison NFZ. I covered the antenna with a piece of aluminum. The motors start and the aircraft hovered. I landed and removed the aluminum sheet. It got a GPS fix before I was able to restart the motors. Controller indicated “NFZ” with no response to the CSC. I placed the aluminum back over the antenna and rebooted the aircraft. “NFZ” I left and drove outside the 5 or 6 block circle around the prison, and at some point as I was driving the “NFZ” disappeared. (No, I didn’t go back. It’s not a very nice area and I think I was able to prove my suspicions)
