Howdy folks from the great southern state of Tennessee!!!
I'm hoping you can help me with something. I've searched the forums for some insight to this topic but can't find anything.
On the flight log page of the my DJI GO app, there is a heading for "Top Altitude". What is that referring to???
I know, I know, I know...It seems self-explanatory. But it clearly is NOT an indication of the highest altitude I've reached AGL nor ASL. My typical launching point (as well as my highest launching point) is at 213 ft ASL. My lowest launch was from the beach at 0 ASL. I can assure you... I've NEVER flown ANYWHERE near 8,000 ASL!!! The highest I've ever flown is around 500 AGL (equal to 713 ASL). Even if I translate it to metric, the max altitude I've ever actually flown would be around 2,300 meters (forgive me if I screwed up the conversion of those numbers. I'm just a Yank who hasn't had to deal with the metric system very often...Lol).
So...The "Top Altitude" is befuddling me. Can anyone advise?
Thanks and DRONE ON!!!
