DJI Fly APP settings - Location

In order to discover the environment in which you are going to fly, there is nothing like looking at a map. You will see the potential dwellings and public places but especially the restricted areas called NoFlyZones.

The advantage is that you do not have to be on the flight field to view this information. You can, from home, consult the prohibited or limited areas. In addition, you do not need to connect to the drone, you can access the map from the application at any time.

Share and discover the flight locations appreciated by other DJI UAV pilots. If you are in a region you don't know, don't worry, the best places will be listed.

Check out the photos and videos you recorded during your last flights! The images are recorded in low resolution on your smartphone so you can quickly show them to your friends and family or simply to get an idea of their quality.

From the album, you can start editing your images directly in the DJI Fly APP. Preconfigured templates are available to provide you with videos very quickly. With a few clicks you define the images you want to see appear during editing and share them on social networks.
