      Hello Yes you are right nothing needs to be done about the first part and the LBA website. You can use the Droniq application directly for finding out the places you can fly.
      And yes the new changes are like this that if you drone doesn't have the class labeling present on it then there is no CLASS 2 categorization for it, It will be either Class 1 - Less than 250gm or Class 3 starting 2024.
      So please check if your drone as the class marking on it.
      It it is there then ignore and if not then you have to follow the rules for flying for CLASS 3 in general.
      If you have Mavic Mini then ignore.
