Hello, I'm traveling to lake Tahoe with my Inspire 1 and plan a trip to Emerald Bay.  The area I may be 1000 feet above lake level which is around 6225ft.  Will I be able to fly the Inspire 1 at this altitude? If not is there something I need to do to allow flight at very high altitudes?  In advance thanks for help and suggestions or experiences.

High Altitude props. I saw there are 1360S and 1360T props for the Inspire 1. Don't know the difference. Never needed special props since I'm below sea level.

I would think an important question is the camera. A lightweight X3 or heavyweight X5R. With the X3 I would not do anything special. Air pressure is about 70-80%  of sea level, so it is a border line case.  With the X5 it is probably more important - but I have no experience with X5.
