I wanted to try a start from a balcony so i did. It was a bit problematic because i got height warning errors while i was low. This is what happened: - I started the Air in an enclosed balcony, using my Phone as a controller through Wifi.
- No GPS reception so OPTI mode was active
- Hovering inside the balcony was fine (about 1.5m from the balcony floor)
- I flew over the edge and the Air decended bout 1 meter and a height warning was heared
- The Air did not want to fly up again, seemed limited. I could not get it back onto the balcony this way.
- Height read from the DJI Go 4 app was 4.8 - 5.0 meters.
- Height limit in the app was set to 50m
- After a minute the height read about 0.8 meters and i could fly higher again

So why was the Air limted to 5 meters at first? The opti mode should allow 8 meters. When it flew over the edge of the balcony it was about 6 meters up and it decended 1 meter. It probably recoverd when it got a GPS signal but i should not drop.
