Is there somewhere in the app that you can adjust the height (or turn off) the landing gear automatically lowering when it gets to be only a few feet off the ground? I was wanting to do some low angle shots but everytime I bring the Inspire down, the landing gear automatically lowers when Im about 3-4 feet off the ground.

Currently the landing gear lowers at 1m.  This is being addressed in the next firmware.

Thanks @Tahoe_Ed

Mine doesn't lower itself down at low altitude. The camera can even touch the ground

I have noticed that the landing gear doesnt automatically land in the simulator also, but didnt take much notice of it, being the simulator.

there is a  "self-adaptive landing gear" switch in  MC setting...

Mine doesn't raise or lower as well. I have to do both manually. Btw, just out of curiosity, what are you filming below 3ft? I wouldn't dare make to much maneuvers at such a low altitude lol

tracking shots that start low and then raise to a higher perspective.

Does anyone know if this has actually been implemented yet?   People are talking about seeing it in the Android app but doesn't seem to be in the IOS version yet.

Workaround is to tape ONE of the sonar ports with insulating tape or similar. Taping both will get a 0m height reading, taping one tricks it into thinking it's not receiving the sound waves, therefore it believes it's above 2.5m.

I tested this today running the new firmware, landing gear deployed automatically at about 3 feet .
