Hello everyone,
I live in Taiwan, where I'm a mountain guide. I bought the mini to take on hikes into the high mountains and fly when I have some spare time. I had my first hike with it a few days ago and am extremely disappointed that it's basically unusable over 2,000m (6,500ft). I had it at 2,500 and 3,000m and it would fly for a little while, then just suddenly nose dive. I stupidly kept trying, thinking that each time it did it was an isolated incident, but it eventually crashed itself into the side of the mountain.
Anyone looking to fly it over 2,000m won't have a drone for very long. Luckily I recovered mine and it still works, but there's no way I'd fly it again at that altitude until I figure out a solution.
Does anyone know anything that might help? Bigger propellers? Some kind of power hack?
