No-Fly Zones 

All No-Fly Zones are listed on the DJI official website at http://flysafe.dji.com/no-fly. No-Ry Zones·are 

divided into Airports and Restricted Areas. Airports include major airports and flying fields where manned 

aircraft operate at low altitudes. Restricted Areas include borders between countries or sensitive sites. 

The details of the No-Fly Zones are explained below: 

Airport: 

( 1) Airport No-Ry Zones are comprised of Takeoff Restricted Zones and Restricted-Altitude Zones. Each 

zone features circles of various size. 

(2) R1 depends on the size and shape of the airport, and is an area around the airport that is a Takeoff 

Restricted Zone, inside of which take-off and flight is prevented. 

(3) From R 1 to R 1 + 1 mile around the airport, the f~ght altitude is limited on a 15 degree incline. starting at 

65 feet (20 meters) from the edge of airport and radiating outward. The !tight altitude is limited to 1640 

feet (500 meters) at R1+ 1 mile. 

(4) When the aircraft is within 320 feet (100 meters) of the No-Ry Zones, a warning message will appear 

in the DJI Pilot app.
