Hi Brad, My video in post #13 is the highest I have been. Launch from 3250mtr and I went up another 50 mtr. Just under 11,000 ft in total. I didn't notice much of a difference compared to flying at sea level. Looking forward to your ccc. Thanks, Rob

Hi guys, Today I got a reply from yuneec cs, due to email issues it's 3 months late and they are asking me for a screenshot because they are not aware of the problem I had. Problem was trying to create a CCC above 8000' when I was in the Alps. Regular flying above 8000' went without issues. 2...

Thats an awesome place to do 4x4. I am planning a trip for next year on some old military roads from WW1 & 2 in the French alps with a classic range rover. Not as high as Tin Cup and less difficult, don't want to stress the rangie to much Cheers, Rob

Nice footage and some great locations. I agree with your statement about the camera. Plenty of options and settings to choose for some great footage. Happy flying, Rob

Hi blueriver, What flightmode were you in? Have you (or anyone else) tried CCC or any of the other task modes at altitudes above 8000'? Cheers, Rob

At least not in angle mode. Still waiting for an answer from Yuneec why I got an 8000' warning while creating a CCC. Cheers, Rob

Upload is 720p downlink from ST16. Today I did a short flight on the Hintertux glacier. Taking of at 3250mtr was without issues, no messages on the st16 and the flight log on UAV toolbox shows no errors. I have not tried to do a CCC at that altitude so no confirmation (yet) that this feature is...

Correct. Side note: The 15 or so minutes with both the H and transmitter require very little power from the batteries. Rob

With regards to the GPS warnings: I had the same during the first flights. On this forum it was mentioned that the H needs about 15 minutes to download the GPS almanac, this applies when you travel more than 50 miles between flights or if you have not flown for several days. I have never had...

Flying the H at higher altitudes I came across this thread from last year with Google search. Unless something has changed the H should fly at over 8000' ASL. This would (almost) confirm my thoughts that the CCC has a limitation.

For my Q500 4k I got different firmware last year from yuneec to launch above 8000 ft. The H launched without issues at 2500+ mtrs (~8200 ft) and flew fine. Others have reported mountain flights way higher. I'm leaning towards a limitation in CCC. Cheers, Rob

I didn't notice any change in the H's behaviour when I took off at 2500+ meters and did a controls check. Only when I started to program a CCC is when I got a message. No issues flying after I cancelled the CCC.

Thanks for the welcome. I added my marker on Yuneec Pilots Home Locations

Hi Patr, Thanks for your thoughts. Between Take off and way points there was only a few metres difference in height. Rob

Hi Dr Delta, Thanks for the quick reply. I just checked and unless there's an updated version of the gui it only let's me set max height from home point (ST16) and the max distance from ST16 in smart mode. I quickly learned (from this forum) to let it sit for 15 minutes after not using it for...
