Airspace near Pekan
No advisory no-fly zone covers Pekan. The nearest one we track is Istana Abu Bakar (Pahang Royal Palace, Pekan), about 24 km away. That is not a clearance - controlled airspace, aerodrome traffic zones and temporary NOTAM restrictions still apply, and every flight in Malaysia needs CAAM authorisation. See the rules checklist and whether you need a licence.

This page scores live conditions at Pekan (3.3782, 103.2096) into a single GO / CAUTION / NO-GO verdict for your drone class. It combines wind and gusts at flight altitude, rain, thunderstorm risk (CAPE), visibility, haze (PM2.5) and temperature - whichever factor is worst sets the verdict.
Like the rest of Malaysia, Pekan is equatorial: mornings are usually the calmest window, storm energy builds through midday, and thunderstorms are most common from mid-afternoon into the evening. Check the hourly timeline above before committing to a time, and re-check on site - a forecast made hours earlier can be stale by takeoff.
