How do you find flying in Vancouver? Did you get an advance drone license or can you just throw the drone up for a couple of minutes and hope for the best? I'll be moving back to Vancouver, and while I'll probably have to get for the advanced drone license for work, I've noticed a lot of people flying in Vancouver without one. I'd like to get some footage around the metro region while I study for the all of the tests etc.

Under 250g technically there are no licensing requirements or restrictions on where you can fly, other than the restricted areas on the DJI app (flightpaths to airports). Most downtown areas are "authorization zones" which means I have to check-in on the app to be able to fly (maybe in case any incidents occur).
Still, when I was in Coal Harbour, I did my take-offs and landings as quickly as possible to minimize the time that people hear the buzzing of the drone (at a distance that they can trace back to me lol). Don't want to have to deal with Karens. Almost crashed into the Flatiron condo while doing that pan shot towards the mountains lmao
