About to purchase DJI P4 Pro. I was told that it will not work in restricted areas (e.g. where I live!). I want to film in Alaska this summer. I think based on my reading here and in the manual that the cell phone/controller does not need to be on wifi or cellular data for the GPS functionality. I believe one must cache the Map data if he/she wants to use it while connected, but the drone should know its position using internal GPS or what can be gathered from the phone GPS (I have GPS in my cellphone). Before I spend a ton of money, could someone confirm my understanding so I don't get to Adak and have an AC that won't fly because there is no cell/data service (and no wifi!).
Thanks. Sorry if this is obvious. I'm a photography enthusiast and new to drones (obviously...). I just don't want to make a $1K mistake and get nothing on "film" during my trip.
