Subject: RE: Flying drones in mountains


southern MN
Out of the box it may be limited to 400 feet high flights from the takeoff spot. That could be a problem in real mountains?

Trees can quickly cause interference and make a person scramble, become familiar with what happens when the drone gets behind a line of trees and you start to lose connection.

If you have a level spot to take off, go fly, just go up, spin, and come down, simple stuff. Don't need to fly sideways any amount. Keeps you out of trouble until you get some experience.

Worst parts of a flight are the first 5 feet up, and the last 3 feet down. If you can see it, you can control it nicely, so keep an eye on it, not just looking at the cool screen.
