- Wow this is HUGE!!! Wat bigger than any Flip release! What all of us DJI owners have been waiting for essentially has finally become a reality.
Amazing New DJI Geofencing Update! As of January 13, 2025 this is a brand spanking new update that all of us DJI owners have been dreaming of in regards to geofencing! This is like having a n Autel drone now and this is for all DJI drones. Always fly safely and legally and just because you can fly and launch doesn’t mean you don’t have to abide by the rules on place with the airspace you’re in. Al🚁ha

Does it also remove the 500m altitude limitation?
@@LukeMaximoBell1 I would think it would, it who knows. It's rare to fly that high legally most places what are your thoughts on wishing that just curious?
@@AtortAerials flying high is useful when you're near mountains, not so useful when you're not.
Apparently they did not remove the 500 M limit. It's still there.
This is awesome!!!! Kudos DJI !!!!
Thanks for Honoring and taking care of your MOM!
It puts the responsibility on the pilot and covers DJI's liability. It also puts their software in line with other manufacturers making DJI more appealing to potential new owners.
@@mikelewis809 I'm sure DJI got sick of dealing with it too or something.
That’s crazy. Nice job DJI
I’ll fly my DJI a lot more now. That Geo fencing was a massive PITA.
That's a good thing no more geofancing. I fly analog, so they can't track or stop me either way 😅
Yes!!
Nice video! Biggest takeaway take care of your parents as they took care of us when we were little. This new update from DJI will allow us 107 pilots to use our DJI platforms and fly in those difficult areas with proper FAA authorizations and not have to deal with potential DJI Geofence issues.
@@garymcpherson6905 I agree drowns and tech are fun but real life puts it ALL in perspective showing us what's turkey important.
Did they get rid of the height limit?
@@HamptonFPV the authorization is still the same FAA's altitude limits as before which are based on the pilots LAANC/COA. The aircraft does not know what that is and will fly above that if the pilot doesn't set that limit in the app.
@ I believe so but not positive. I asked my friend about that and he wasn't certain either. I think it's kind of unlocked now in that regard.
outstanding information as I live near Johnstown ,pa airport ,the geo zone has fingers that you can and I have got stuck behind running out of battery before getting home but landed in a friends business car lot .this will come in handy in the future ,thank you
@@a2tomm you're welcome.
I'm all for the responsibility being placed on the pilots as it always should have been. I've seen many people confuse the DJI geofencing with the FAA regs. "It lets me fly here so I'm approved now" fallacy. This is how it should be and keep the manufacturers out of the middle.
@@hartleyaerial as long as people doing truly stupid 💩 have some consequences it seems like the FAA doesn't do well with doing much.
Sorry to hear about your mom. I'm updating my air 3 right now making sure it's updated
@@tomnolan2186 let us know! 🥳🥳🥳
Despite how good the Mini3/Mini4Pro/etc... are, I could never commit to getting one as the nanny features and geo fence took the decision making out of my hands. The best is to warn users, just like gun owner operation and vehicle owner operation of the possibilities of 'bad' choices.
This is only for US or world wide?
@@jonathanoeijoeng I believe this was rolled out in other countries first and that’s part of why they’re doing it here now too…that was how someone explained it to me at least I’m not positive.
By turning on the props, you probably triggered that airports drone detection system (aerial armor, aeroscope).
@@rubengarciajr7560 which is why I didn't fly the drone or have it outside my car. That's the thing though nothing happened I never do fly in restricted zones but if u were to really fly it I wonder what would happen if anything.
@@AtortAerials yeah i hear yah, would be nuts flying near it. What I would think would happen is the traffic tower would see it, then they'll probably call the coppers and go to your location
@ I always wonder if they could jam it out of the air or something. Or if that would not be the protocol?
@ I don’t know. I would think they would call someone to your location as that info (GNSS coordinates) is being broadcasted from the drone via drone id protocol.
They were all in with the remote ID trying to restrict flights and now this, the timing and motives are very suspicious.
@@seannichols6264 it's very odd for sure. They banning then this it's all over the f'n place.
Skip to 14:33 to see if it works.
@@lexarcher9685 yup. I wanted to show people the entire process because a lot of people really don't know exactly what they look for so this was more of a real time walk-through to maybe help some. 😇
@@AtortAerials The only part necessary was the update of the FlySafe Data. The other updates were completely unnecessary.
@ as I mentioned in another comment…..I didn’t know what was essential to have that take effect and was prompted for all to be updated so played it safe for the video. Seemed to make sense that the app may have needed to be and the firmware too. Thanks for letting us know.
Beware if you are a phantom 4 Pro 2.0 owner. Do not update the firmware because it will prevent you from flying if you don't have an internet connection to connect to the uuid.
@@basspig 😳
* Just updated the Firmware and FlySafe today after hearing the news on my three DJI drones. 🙂
@@andre1987eph nice!
Do you know if it is the same for the DJI GO 4 app for my Phantom?
@@Emuspaul yes it should apply to the Fly app and Go 4 app.
Lmfao it's 2025 nobody uses a phantom anymore ahahahhaha
Yes it works with Go4. Just did it for my P2V2
@ nice!
Nobody sees any link between this and the 'type of use of drones in the Ukraine?' If DJI drones can now access 'sensitive areas'....is that not huge reason for concern?
I fly a mini 3 pro with RC controller. What do I need to do for this to take effect?
@@mwales2112 update your Fly App, update your drone firmware and geo update whatever it prompts you to do DO. Pretty simple at least it soul be. Let me know if a success.
@@AtortAerials I live near a military base and after the updates it seems to have worked just fine. Thank you
Just update the FlySafe Data. That's it! Fly app and RC and Drone do not need updating to remove GEO.
@ yeah I wasn’t sure I just knew everything was wanting to be updated so wasn’t sure what was mandatory for it to happen. I didn’t want to take any chances while doing it for the video. 😇
This is awesome! DJI tried playing nice. Now the FAA morons get to deal with it.
That’s good so it still warns you that you’re in a no fly zone ?
@@wilsta67 basically that’s the screen you get. It warns u about taking full liability and I would use another app to check airspace too. It’s pretty darn freeing though exactly like Autel now basically.
this is great , less government involvement is always , world already has to many mindless drone people now.
Love your mom comment.
@@DarR1299 🙏🏾💞
you don't need LAANC ? geo fence has gotten in my way many times when on real estate shoots, I had LAANC and geo fence over rid it a few times and I couldn't get on a network to unlock. sometimes I'd unlock geo fence the day before on DJI website, super annoying, and it would work sometimes or other times the unlock code wouldn't load onto the mavic 2 for what ever reason. this is great, now we can simply deal with the FAA only, the way it should be!
@@funkyboogieenope you click a box and that's it! Of course you have to pay attention to what airspace you're in still and fly accordingly but no hassle super simple this is MASSIVE.
@@funkyboogiee you still need to get FAA authorization to be and fly in a particular controlled airspace whether it be thru LAANC or dronezone. All this does is eliminate the need to unlock the aircraft. Checking that box within DJI will not give you any FAA approval to fly it simply releases the liability from DJI and ours it all on you that you have obtained proper authorizations.
Of course you need LAANC to fly legally in controlled airspace. This just removes DJI's physical geofence - doesn't negate the pilot's responsibility to know your airspace before flying, and getting FAA authorization where required for legal flight.
@ yup! People need to truly hear this again and again and again.
1,000% Tarriff on all DJI products.!"
@@willarddunham8017 buy um now!!! :)
If I had a dji mini 4 pro there is NO way I'd opt for the flip. The flip is for idiots that don't know how to fly.
@@eddyg1794 maybe we need to flip off the flip for real. 🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾😁
Why are people happy about this….smh…..somebody gonna do something stupid and they gonna band all DJI drones new and old….watch
@@NickHDLife I hardly disagree with you. Basically no rules have changed that's the thing DJI just shifted liability that's all with this. You know some newbie is going to fly at airports now for sure and stuff. We shall see. I think happy for us who know more not happy for those who don't. Maybe this only should be for 107 certificate holders for an example at the very least.
I agree, this is the beginning of the end. Geo fencing was a good thing, for the hobbyist, unfortunate it needed to be implemented, but a good thing for the future of the hobby, from a safety standpoint. People can't be trusted, they will shoot themselves in the foot, more people will do really dumb things, and that will bring an end to the hobby for all of us.
@ I wish I could disagree but hard to knowing how people are screwing up so badly with it in place already. Ugh
This type of response is stunning to me -- to think that so many recreational operators are ignorant of the airspace before they fly, and depend on the DJI Fly app to babysit them? It's absolutely the operator's responsibility, always has been, to know the airspace, only fly in Class G, or get FAA authorization for other Classes of airspace. When I got my first drone I spend days researching and learning the rules... did the TRUST and then got my 107. I've run into DJI GeoFence limitations where I commonly fly with LAANC authorization, and even in Class G uncontrolled airspace -- the process of getting a DJI unlock is an absolutely needless PITA to anyone that is responsibly flying. For those flying without knowing the rules, they deserve any enforcement action that comes their way for intentional ignorance. The elimination of geofenceing is a very welcome development!
@@ShadduckGuestRoom let’s understand something I’m not talking about guys like me and you that have that part 107 that know the rules and regulations of the FAA I’m talking about folks that just got their drones for Christmas and don’t know anything about anything about the rules, the Geo fencing is good for those folks everyone is not gonna be like me and you and and look up rules and regulations most people look at a drone like a RC car, but you know this!!!!!!!…… a few people can mess it up for many……… like I said this is nothing to be happy about
