I talked to DJI who advised me the Phantom would not fly correctly if I flew it below the take-off level. so did a quick and dirty test, probably about 50 feet below. no worries. Please ignore the jello, I have included 20 sec of the previous flight to show how the props was "un-calibrated" really quickly.. sorry jello happens. ha ha. The Phantom is shockingly sturdy. My phantom have taken a huge amount of abuse without a single malfunction. Lessons.. Flying looking down, it is really hard to see how close the Phantom is to the ground. Make sure you climb back up BEFORE red light start flashing for low battery.
