Nothing significant, a few changes over prisons perhaps.

One thing to note since your last foray in to drones, DJI have now removed all geofence restrictions.

Make sure you’re safe and legal to fly because DJI will no longer warn or stop you.

One thing to note since your last foray in to drones, DJI have now removed all geofence restrictions. yeah i saw a video showing that. its good and bad i guess as it dnt stop you flying when they mistakenly geofenced a area that they shouldn’t have but then on the other hand its bad because it allows you to fly anywhere u like even if they have nfz in place.

And there was the confusion, a NFZ was a made up DJI thing, not to be confused with the official CAA FRZ.
