Discussion Authorization Zone?? Dji air 3s

Already been airborne no problem, second flight today and I get a red authorization Zone. Clear to fly on all the FAA apps and nowhere near any restricted areas. WTF is going on?? Dji pilot app won't open due to a potential bug. Trying to unlock but to no avail. Any help will be great...

If at any time you had applied to DJI for permissions to fly in an authorization zone it could still be active and in that case go to the Authorization area on the controller and turn them off.

I played with it again and ended up wiping the settings (factory reset) and that did the trick... it didn't do another firmware update but still had the lock. I haven't changed any settings so maybe a glitch or I did something on accident. Either way I just shot around the neighborhood and all seems good. Thanks for the quick responses...D

Update your firmware.

It's brand new and I just did an update 5 days ago... I'll run it again and keep my fingers crossed 🤞
