Am I right in thinking I can take off on top of a hill and fly 400ft above me then fly forward across a valley and be 800ft above ground level legally?
Conversely I could take off in the valley and let the drone ascend up the side of a 400ft hill and be 20ft above ground level at all times but break the law when the drone reaches 420ft above me?
No, you are wrong. It is 400ft above ground (or object) level. That means if you are on a hill, go 400ft above , then you go forward, you should lower the drone according to the slope of the hill to stay 400ft agl.
If you go forward and get 800ft agl, technically you break the rule |
