This Max Distance setting is a user selectable safety setting. It allows you to set a hard limit as to how far the Inspire 1 or Phantom 3 quad can fly from the home point. If you turn this option On, you can then set a distance between 15 and 500 meters. If you fly this distance away from the home point, you will get a warning message on the screen "Maximum distance reached". You will not be allowed to fly further away from the home point than the maximum distance you specify. (Much like the Beginner Mode option limits you to a maximum distance of 30 meters distance from the home point.) You can try this feature on the Flight Simulator to see exactly how it works.
If you leave the Maximum Distance option turned OFF, it means you can fly as far away from the home point as you dare or until you lose connection with the RC, in which case a Return-to-Home will be triggered. |
