As @Howard78 said, an update to the fly database worrked (first one I have done in about 5 years)

Although I have DH removal activated, its nice to not get the annoying popup messages ;o)

Is that the Vulcan bomber sat on the extremely short runway/ parking area ?

Indeed it is

Robin Hood Airport and XH558 Vulcan

Been meaning to go for ages since they closed the place. @Howard78 lives so close we had to give it a go, thanks to him for finding us a great out of the way spot for TOAL, and for the great as always company. Lots of security but no one bothered us. Stills from DJIFPV, video to follow [image] [image] [image] [image]

XH558 - The spirit of Great Britain - Avro Vulcan Bomber

Avro Vulcan XH558 - The spirit of Great Britain first flew in 1960 and was the last remaining Vulcan to fly. Its final flight was on 28th October 2015 and living close by I had the pleasure of hearing the famous “howl” more than most. It’s an aircraft that I’ve grown up with and is engrained in my local community. It’s the mascot to the local school and named in local streets. So today @speatuk and I both visited XH558. I’ve wanted to fly this location for years but being an active airport u…

Ahh, saw XH558 at Bruntingthorpe many years ago.

@milkmanchris chris, is that using an older v of app can I ask, I’ve been holding off doing it just incase it messes anything up,

If it is I’m guessing I can just update the flysafe within the app & not update anything else,
Thanks

Yeah no update of anything frimware or app wise. It asks if you want to update the ‘fly safe database’, click yes and takes about a minute.

The areas then become flyable after a ticking a box to say you take full responsibility ;o)

You can do just this mate. I did it on the rc pro

[Kirky]

@Howard78

did it on the rc pro

Thanks guys, yes I have the rc pro rm 510

Just out of curiosity in the check list where it says home point updated top left, did you get a message or any messages saying something to this effect, geo awareness function degraded or similar, ?
Sorry for the question & thank you once again

[Howard78]

I didn’t notice but will check the air data.

I think one others flying said something about a similar warning though

[Kirky]

Thank you mate,
I think but not 100% sure which I read a while back on a DJI forum, is if I remember rightly although the database has been updated within the app, some people had to update & or refresh the FW on their drones ( which I’m not advising ) was just what I read, so this was my only reason for holding off, I maybe over thinking but if & when any of you guys next connect your drones / controllers I would really appreciate if you could kindly let me know what the check box says, many thanks & sorry if this topic has gone off topic,
Thanks for the input ….
