Altitude

[isle]

Is altitude on iPhone from height over ground or from sea level?

 

[msinger]

It's from the ground.

 

[Meta4]

To be more precise, it's the height relative to your Home Point.
Your Phantom doesn't know where sea level is.
It doesn't know if you've flown off a mountain or over a canyon.
It only knows where HP is and what level HP is at.

So your home point is always zero altitude whether in Death Valley or atop Everset

Correct !

mine always show like 2-3m altitude even while on the ground calibration does not fix it, any ideas?

 

[dirkclod]

I don't remember ever seeing mine dead on . Always just a few feet off .

Dont quote me but I think the warmer it is the more correct it is.

I posted something similar a few months ago regarding telemetry but the recent forum problems isnt giving me the full thread.

Except that you can't fly in Death Valley.
