DJI Custom Unlock Process for Restricted / No Fly Zones
To ensure public airspace safety, DJI has created Restricted (Red) GEO Zones around airports and other high-risk facilities to regulate sUAS flights. Flights will not be allowed in these areas unless proper authorization has been obtained.
The custom unlock feature in the Kespry App will allow you to unlock your DJI drone (Phantom 4 RTK, Mavic 2 Pro, Phantom 4 Pro v1) and fly in these restricted areas but prior to doing so, you will need to obtain airspace approval from the FAA and apply for a Custom Unlock from DJI. The normal workflow is as follows:
If you have not already done so, create a DJI account. This is mandatory and an account will be required for certain tasks even if not going through this process.
Please note this topic is only applicable to DJI drones. It is not applicable if you are flying a Kespry 2 or Kespry 2s drone.
