    up-stick stopped working at high altitude, did not improve

    Thank you. I actually just did an experiment in a safe location wherein I put it in sport mode and flew it straight up to see if I could reproduce the error. It went above the ceiling where it had stopped earlier and I let off the stick around 1100 ft. I focused on other stuff for a bit, and...
