> Went to my brothers Nr. Doncaster, Has good area to fly and its surrounded by farm land, so i took the M2P!! Before i got Mavic out of car i fired up drone assist, it was a high risk area, so I decided to leave mavic in car! My question is, could I have flown in a “High Risk” area? its about a mile or so from Robinhood Airport! can just see on horizon!

It is in a danger zone and shouldnt be flown over, however you can pick it up from the road just past the turning for Norton Bavant

DJI Geo Zone = don’t prohibit flight, but do trigger warnings that inform users of potential risks.

Red zone = your drone _may be_ hazardous or prohibited.

Flight Restriction Zone = don’t fly … period.

That’s good to know as I live right on the edge of salisbury plain under the Westbury White horse. Though I wouldnt fly directly there as a lot of paragliders. I bought it really for upcoming camp trips to Dartmoor, Cornwall and Scotland. But I wanted to try and get some experience locally first.
