NLD 1.8.0.1. no NFZ flash possible on firmware V01.00.1000

I had a long discussion with service folks on this.  I live in the DC area, which is a special no-fly zone.  Noting that, even the NFZ removal on firmware .0900 isn't possible as there is something extra hard-coded in elsewhere.  Noting that, your 3 options appear to be:

- stay on .1000 and not get NFZ
- downgrade to .0900 and get NFZ removal in most areas, provided you're using the modified NLD client on Android ONLY and you're not in the greater Washington DC
- downgrade to .0300 and get full NFZ everywhere; modification is available in the NFZ client software on your PC

I don't know what the way forward is, or if there will be a fix for .1000.  The news to me was the fact that there doesn't appear to be a "full" NFZ removal for anything above .0300.  I don't know if there are other super-restricted areas.

It gets worse! With v.1.9.0.0 NLD there's not even a NFZ removal option for fw 300, and I can't get the NFZ patch to download for either 900 or 1000.
I too got NLD specifically for flying on my property at the edge of the DC NFZ and this is more annoying than my Spark purchase itself.
