DJI, what will Part 107 do to DJI GO?

[Dr. Ifly Drones]

Having read over the release of Part 107 (all 624 pages) it becomes clear that some of the restrictions in the DJI GO app are not congruent with the new regulations. For those of you whom are beta testers for DJI, has there been any word about how they are going to address these? Example; old regulations says >5 miles from major airports while Part 107 only says contact ATC for approval. Do we have any idea what this is going to do to DJI products that are almost exclusively operated via the DJI GO app?

I don't think it has changed at all.

The only difference is that the FAA understands that a 107 holder may have job that is within the 5 mile limit thus they recommend to contact ATC for approval.

Even for rec use recommends to contact ATC. Certainly I've suggested it to my class about it.
