Maximum height

[Zoomzoom]

Hi everyone, I'm staying in Buena Vista Colorado for a few days and have been able to fly a little. My dilemma is that I can't fly above 500 meters and although I understand why that is, I'm flying up avalanche shoots and staying close to the mountain. I'd love to go up another couple of 100' and peak over the ridge and have a clear view of Mt. Princeton. I'd still be under 400' AGL at the top of the ridge but maxed out from where I take off on the road. I just need to find a shorter mountain don't I?

I unfortunately there’s not anything we can do about it on the Mavic 2s yet despite best efforts. Maybe soon though

They really are an amazing piece of technology, I'll just have to work within its limitations. I would never have been able to see what I saw yesterday that close or that safely.
