😂😂😂

Funniest thing I've heard today

You fly your Drone how you want too. If I want to get high, I will. Free country asshole

...

though I'm not entirely sure about that, I stupid agree that the limits are there so that we don't see their Shenanigans, like the Sun simulator and stuff.

Lol😂

Blisterybrush86 Yo momma lol

I know exactly what you mean. I tell myself though, it`s good exercise to cover that distance on foot. I remember Stefan Forster once saying how much weight he put on because his drone stopped him exercising.

@@alpinewonders I agree about the exercise. Unfortunately I only have one leg. Not an option for me.

is correct, we need to do that too bcause i live next to Rila, which is up to almost 3000 m high. Not in open space but for mountain photography. We fill in our mobile phone number for aerial identification as well if the police needs us and we can show that we only did scientific things with the drone. +je

🤣 Yea I peeped that too.

This guy......??? Bunk himself

Exactly! What a moron he is!

He doesn’t have any idea what he’s talking about either

There is a reason for its turned off...

Lol build an fpv race drone hawk 5 does 140 mph at fast cruise that should be fast enough for you LOL

seems to me it allows the drone to move faster when locked on GPS.. I think affects return to home speed.

Hmm. Well, sounds cool. Eventually there might be a good reason to "jailbreak" my Mavic. Returning to home faster would be great, but tests would have to be done to see what kind of battery drain it causes. Thanks for the fast reply. Really enjoy your videos!

I think a lot of people didn't understand that the footage wasn't me. I mention in half way through the video and should have started at the very beginning haha.

If anyone watched the video they'd know that. You say more than once you'd never do something this irresponsible.

I have a Contixo F18 and I have flew up to 473m high.That seems to be my "eye sight" threshold.I pressed the home button because I couldn't see it after that height.

You can easily go down from 4000 m using less than 10% remaining battery (by simply unlocking the 3 m/s downward speed to something like 8 or even 12 m/s) You have to be carefull tho, not to get caught in your own downwash flow when you start to slowdown the descent... the easiest way to avoid that is moving forward (prefferably against the wind).

Lol I was thinking the same thing. I was so confused like, why are you making this video telling people how to do it then saying dont do it?

@@Matthew-th9jq hahaha it's just a disclaimer bro, so if someone farks up their drone trying this, or blows up a plane in the process, he can't be blamed hahaha

LoL high..,. Like as far as your drone has signal. Get a signal booster lol the sky is the limit

20k feet

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!

if i'm out at camp, and dji isn't restricting my height limit, I'm taking it to the limit. just make sure you actually visually check for air traffic, be mindful.

Wind velocity at height

it was deleted by the uploader

+ChainsawDude i see. Not sure the reasoning.

Me, too!

If you land the drone and reset the "home" feature every 500 metres, you should be able to keep climbing indefinitely. The height restriction is not based on 500 metres above sea level, its based on 500 metres above "home".

@@pje8171116 500 meters about the remote?

That is incorrect ...you are not allowed to fly above 400 feet in Australia.

another idiot who doesn't respect the rules www.casa.gov.au/standard-page/flying-drones-australia

as it says on the site "You must only fly by visual line of sight (VLOS)-close enough to see, maintain"

PKTV , I can barely see my mavic 500 meters so I would assume is would be out of sight at a greatly higher altitude therefore resulting in further monitoring through the controller. At that moment your no longer line of sight. Could you imagine at that altitude that one wind blast could put you off course for miles. Not worth all the risks involved in my opinion. Why would someone need to go that high?

@Herb Cortes These "rules" are NOT law! they were voluntary guidelines setup by the model aircraft association just like the "1 meter rule" for pushbikes on the road...it's not law either just suggested by government roads of each state, like Vicroads in Victoria.

That's ment to fly above mountains. I mean, it says you can go hike to the Himalayas and be able to legally fly at that altitute. Even some towns are built on flats around 4000 or even 5000 MSL But yeeh the manual stating that 5000m ceiling sounds too ironic :'D

@@kyscoI live at around 2000 meters. I can definitely tell the drone has to use more battery here due to thinner air. At 5000 and above the battery would drain faster

Get a life mate, pls. You can also get hit by a car or bike if you go for a walk so why don't you just stay inside (just in case).

as you fly up a mountain the mountain terrain becomes the 400 ft to measure to. so you can fly to the top of a 3000ft mountain as long as you dont go above 3200ft. you can also exceed the 400ft mark if flying above a building same rule. if building is 100 ft you can fly to 500ft.

@@CakePC_Jake86 no it doesnt. It takes the altitude from the starting point. Sucks

he ended up deleting the video so I guess he did get some heat.

How mine still let's me

Legally, 400 feet is not the limit. 400 feet is only a guideline written by the FAA, it's once you fly into Class E (700 feet or 1200 feet depending on the area) airspace or any airspace set fourth by an airport that it becomes illegal. The 400 feet guideline is to keep all aircraft safe and should definitely be followed, but it's not illegal. However if you get caught the FAA can push to have you charged with reckless endangerment which is a felony.

Alex Urbach legally ? Show me the criminal or civil aviation code startling that ?

Deane Tim people keep saying breaking rules or laws but I do not see any criminal or civil aviation codes stated showing this is illegal?

retro93292 These are the published rules for the U.K. The regulations for recreational drone flights are contained within the Air Navigation Order 2016 (ANO) which is the primary document for all aviation regulations within the UK. In order to keep the regulations at a proportionate level for these small drones, a set of specific, simpler, regulations apply to aircraft that have a mass of 20kg or less (which are termed ‘small unmanned aircraft’ within the ANO). In simple terms, these regulations state that: you are responsible for flying your drone in a safe manner you must keep the drone in your direct sight at all times while it is flying, so that you can ensure that it does not collide with anything, especially other aircraft you must not endanger anyone, or any thing with your drone, including any articles that you drop from it if your drone weighs more than 7kg, additional rules apply if you fly in certain types of airspace and you must not fly above 400ft above the surface If your drone is fitted with a camera, there are also a number of additional limitations surrounding where you can fly it, and how close you can fly it to other uninvolved people or objects. In order to be able to fly within these areas, or closer than the minimum distances that are in the regulations, you must obtain prior Permission from the CAA to do so. However, the law [at ANO article 94(3)] requires that the person in charge of a drone must maintain direct unaided visual contact with the aircraft which is sufficient to monitor its flight path so that collisions may be avoided. This is obviously not possible if that person is wearing video goggles or otherwise constantly monitoring a display. Please pay particular attention to the statement "and you must not fly above 400 feet above the surface" (the exact reason why DJI set the limitation to 120 metres on the height) For the US please read this document that came into effect 29th August 2016 it is very clear on the rules that apply, VLOS at all times and not to fly above 400 feet. These rules are freely available for anyone to read and I would recommend you do so to avoid promoting what is in fact unsafe flying practices not to mention illegal www.faa.gov/uas/media/Part_107_Summary.pdf Good luck

Deane Tim I like this post. Too many people getting on this guy. I know exactly how the DJI Mavic Pro is modified to do this. Many things you can do. It’s a bin file in firmware but it requires some work and most people will not be able to do it. Unfortunately the industry is blowing up. Amazons drones can’t fly above 400’. So drone traffic is gonna get risk below 400’. Strict licensing is probably on its way. I don’t think it can be avoided. Another thing I’d like to add. DJI did a piss poor job securing things. So much in fact the government and military has banned use of any DJI product until the company fixes their flaws. (U.S.A). Police departments were using the products. I know 2 other countries have done the same. DJI hired an outside security firm to reorganize. I’d agree with it as well. The firmware and software is sloppy. It’s gotten better since it’s inception. But DJI didn’t fully understand the can of worms they were opening till now. I also remember telling everyone to update their drones. People didn’t or found ways to save the older firmware. That helped find ways to push the limits. Nobody’s doing this on recent firmware for the most part lol. Some of it can be done. The Mavic does have a ceiling of about 16,000 feet. DJI publishes that. It’s software/firmware and a barometer that limits it. I’ll repeat one thing unless you’ve done some programming or debugging I’m not worried. The average person won’t be able to do it. The tutorials out their still require computer knowledge. But yes I will say it’s not hard and DJI opened themselves up to a lot of it. They could of put things in place to make it more secure. I gurantee they are doing that now. *I mean DJI built in a back door to DJI assistant for programmers. It was locked on the consumer side. Program files a few tweaks welcome to debugging. Are you serious? Lol their should of been two different types of programs for that. But just like a computer virus. If it can be programmed someone will program it to do something else. No stopping it. Only reducing it. I blame DJI a lot but lol. They’ll get their. Many companies mess up with Tech in the beginning. I remember when Netatmo WiFi Weather stations were broadcasting WiFi passwords unencrypted. I remember hacking my Belkin Wemo Camera. Amazons new front door package delivery has a glitch. DDOS attack on router and the delivery guy can rob you as it’ll freeze the Amazon Cloud Camera. So we can’t point fingers. We just gotta make things more secure. And for those that do modify their drones hopefully do it with in the law. You can get 50 Mph at sacrificed battery drain out of that same file. That’s not illegal. Violates warranty that’s about it. I haven’t done it to mine. I just don’t care for it. But I just wanted to chime in since I know the game and I know why he explained it. They are the frontier on drones. Tesla is the frontier on electric cars. Unfortunately companies that start it always suffer. We find the issues as we go. And if we don’t the company fails and somebody else does it better. Right now, DJI is after security and gov. They produced all these drones now they want to know where they are going and what they are doing and lock things down. It’s a smart move. They won’t make it with out then contributing to the government and FAA etc as yeah drone traffic is gonna spike and hard by 2021

But flying in the mountains is not a safety issue. There's nobody around to bother. I even ran out of juice one time a crashed in the snow. Broke a prop and that's all. Let me fly as high as I need to in the mountains. As I said before, I don't want to fly higher than 400 ft above the land below me, but DJI places the 500m restriction based upon where you take off. I'd rather have a 400 ft restriction above the land where the drone happens to be.

Mark G this is exactly the point I've been trying to make, commenting on these videos. Well said my friend! In my opinion, and I'm pretty sure I'm right, these regs have nothing to do with Public Safety of any kind. They don't want you going above the clouds. Period. Operation Solar Shield is in full effect and they want to keep anyone from seeing it until they got a chance to spin it to match their narratives. Anyone who doesn't know what I'm talking about, go start doing some research. And whatever you do stay away from mainstream media because it's nothing but lies and it's proven on their own documents. the mainstream just doesn't talk about it

Did you not listen to the whole video? He clearly mentions it.

Yeah just commented this. Couldn't take it up to mountain filming spot since stopped at 500m. Just like 100ft or so shy of getting to tower

For school purposes I’m doing a project please

Hlysht this is sick! Ill do this soon 😂

very good point. I would be afraid it would cause long term issues with the battery. Maybe get a racing drone if you want that type of thrill?

FAA disagrees

Until you cause an aircraft to crash

Use your imagination.

Did the feds show up at your door
