Narrative:

First flight under part 107 rules. I filed a flight plan using airmap and B4UFly apps to do a roof inspection using a dji inspire 1. The information I was given by both apps was to be careful flying in fty class D airspace. I called the tower chief and he suggested that I file for a waiver. I figured since B4UFly app was a FAA app and it said just to be careful flying within 5 miles of an airport; I went with it. As soon as I came to a 2 foot hover; I got warnings on my dji app and immediately set it down; packed it up and reviewed the sectional charts again. After further review; I found the website I should have used to file a waiver; faadronezone.faa.gov; to file for waivers next time.
