I’m not well-versed in the UAS laws globally, but in Canada you basically need to have a spotter if the PIC doesn’t have unaided line of sight to the aircraft[1]. DJI tends to go above and beyond the actual legal limitations when it comes to aviation safety, so this doesn’t surprise me a whole lot. It’s often frustrating; my Mavic Mini 1 often prevents me from doing perfectly legal things in my own yard because I live pretty close to an airport. I can unlock it, but last I checked it required using a laptop to fill out some forms and was quite a bit more complicated than the usual 30-second setup that I love. [1] Aircraft less than 250g do not have the same regulations, which is why the TinyWhoop family of aircraft are super popular here for FPV racing.
