BTW If you're reading this and thinking about getting one of these, don't wait too long. I predict that some new regulations will be handed down that prevent these toys from flying too high. The DJI always has software "no fly" zones that prevent it from flying into areas that are restricted. These were added voluntarily by the makers but soon I bet, it will become law before they can be sold here, or, flyers will require licenses.
They did it on my Blade QX as well. However you need to update the firmware in order to have the new flight ceiling enabled. Needless to say I keep a copy of the old firmware on a USB
