Can I Unlock The 120 Metre Altitude Restriction On DJI Mini 4 Pro (& Should I)?
Every sub 250 gram drone which was sold before January 1st is sort of in a grey area. While the DJI Mini 4 Pro ships with a C0 label, and therefore the 120 metre height restriction, will be able to have its label removed with the latest firmware update. Every DJI Mini 4 Pro sold after January 1st, will not have that ability. Its important to note that this limitation applies to every DJI Mini 4 Pro sold worldwide. For example: if you are from the US and want to fly your drone in Europe, you will be met with the same limitations.
You can find more information on our web, so please take a look.
Last Monday, DJI released a new firmware update for the DJI Mini 4 Pro which adds the ability to remove the label from your drone. This means your drone will be seen as a legacy drone in the regulations. Declassifying your drone can be done as follows:
- Update your drone to the latest firmware.
- Go to the Safety tab in the settings, where you will see a new button to request the removal of the height restriction.
- Remove the label from the bottom of the drone.
- Take photographs which show the label was removed, together with the serial number.
- Upload the photographs to the DJI website to get your drone unlocked.
The removal of the C0 label will only be possible for DJI Mini 4 Pros sold before January 1st !
Now, the big question is whether or not you should remove the label. In my opinion, I think you should if you already own such a drone. The biggest issue is that your drone because virtually useless in mountainous areas. For example, when flying in Iceland, I can rarely make use of the 120 metres altitude I get from the takeoff point because you are often surrounded by mountains.
Another important thing to note is that this change to the firmware will be pushed out to all sub 250 gram drones DJI has sold in the coming weeks. This means that if you own a DJI Mini, DJI Mini 2, DJI Mini 3 or DJI Mini 3 Pro, you should probably not update your firmware again. Its unlikely more new features will be pushed out to your drone, in which case there is no real benefit to updating. If you update, a C0 label will be provided to you by DJI.
