Flying DJI Mini 4 Pro in the US (CA, NV, UT, AZ) - tips & regulations?

Hi everyone,

I’m planning a trip to the US soon, visiting California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. I’m thinking about bringing my DJI Mini 4 Pro with me.

From what I’ve researched so far, I’ve completed the TRUST certificate (as suggested by Google), and I understand the basic rules: no flying in national parks, around sensitive or restricted sites, or over large crowds. I also know the drone must always remain within visual line of sight.

So far, I’ve flown in several countries including across the EU, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines, and I haven’t had any major issues or unexpected situations. Still, I always try to learn as much as possible about local regulations before flying in a new country to avoid any surprises.

If anyone has experience flying in these states or in the US in general, I’d really appreciate any practical tips, things to watch out for, or anything that might not be obvious from official guidelines.

Thanks in advance!
