Is it correct that the Mavic 4 now falls into category A2 and not A1 like the Mavic 3? In other words, you have to obtain the A2 licence to be allowed to fly it at all?

Answer

Digitec's response on this subject is incorrect. 
Given that the drone weighs more than 900g at take-off and has a category 2 (C2) CE mark, i.e. is in the "Open" category, A2 certification is compulsory. 
A2 certification is compulsory. (A1/A3 theory + A2 exam) at the FOCA offices.

Answer

The Mavic 4 Pro falls into category C2, which means that an A1/A3 online course is required. For flights in A2 areas, the A2 certificate is recommended, but it is not mandatory to fly the drone at all. The Mavic 4 Pro does not fall directly into the A2 category, but requires specific certifications based on the flight conditions.
