Some AMA clubs get clearance for a higher ceiling for a few hours from the FAA. You need to go through the proper channels, call the local tower that's controlling the airpsace you are in. If you are in an AMA club or a registered drone pilot with a license you can be granted clearing during a specific time window.
How would I override the 3DR 400ft ceiling ? Mission Planner ? Tower ?
I'd imaging to achieve an altitude over 1300ft I would need to upgrade the antennea. I wouldn't want an 800mw
wifi module in the bird and in the controller because A. I wouldn't want an rf source so close to my head. That's just tempting fate for eye cancer. Also it would reduce flight time.
Do any of you fly higher or further ? What do you do. Currently flying at 400ft ceiling. Is it possible to fly within a 2 mile radius at a 400ft altitude ?
