I'd like to see the ability to TYPE in values for height and max distance.  I find the sliders very difficult to get a precise number.  For instance, height.  I want 120m ... exactly.  I've tried various ways, several times, of moving the slider and can get 118, or 121, but not 120.  And max range is even harder ... because the slider covers something like 0 to about 10,000m (not sure exactly), if you want or need to make it short, like say 250, its very hard to get that.  I think these need either (1) ability to TYPE in a specific number (that's how it was done on my old Mavic Pro) OR (2) as we slide to a particular number the scale focusses in to allow more precise sliding ... slide to "close" to what we want, finger off, scale adjusts to a range much closer to that number so a subsequent slide can be more precise.

Hi there, thank you for your report, I have forwarded your feedback and suggestion to our engineers for their consideration.

+1, good idea.

i dont need this

+1,  would be nice...

This is a very much needed feature in the Fly app!!  The slider is just a bad design when you need specific inputs.  Please make sure to pass along that many people are continuing to request this!

Such requests have been made since the FLY app was released and the sliders are still the only option available.
I would be inclined to take from that, that our requests fall on ears that are the equal of my own........ i.e. deaf.

Well, if there really is NO other way, other than to use the sliders, at least make the values update in real time, as I drag along the slider. The way of moving the slider and then seeing the value to which it is adjusted is really difficult to use, especially for people with bigger fingers.

If you can, can I suggest you change the title of this thread to something like "Please add changing limits by typing in numbers to FLY."

Good idea!

This was brought up before. Should be a simple thing to add.
Not a "must have" for me. Will keep my slider at 393ft until then, since I can't get it any closer.

I'm also having trouble setting the slider accurately.

Just out of curiousity which slider are you talking about?
If the RTH height limit then I would suggest that an unnecessarily high RTH height is not a good thing,
It wastes battery power in any required climb and in the  subsequent descent.
Plus, it may put the drone up, needlessly, into strong wind which may or may not be of concern to you.

Max height. I don't remember the RTH height I have set. I don't use the auto-RTH function, unless it kicks in automatically from losing signal.

It would be an idea to check the RTH height for the reasons I mentioned and, ideally, set it at an appropriate height for every new location.
It's also a good idea to occasionally check what the failsafe option is set to, some people have been caught out by changing it and forgetting they have changed it and lost their drone as a consequence.
Ditto the response to the CSC position.

Maybe just add "Feature Request" to the thread title.
