Litchi now on iOS

My house is at 5,100 feet and the tallest mountains are 9,800 feet.
And the closer I get to the mountain the higher in elevation I go.

Ground zero is where you take off, not sea level.
I understand ground zero is where you take off but you said at the base.

"I could fly over a 10,000 foot mountain here in NV if I was standing at the base of it. Not sure the Phantom could handle it though, like someone else said, wrong machine for the job."

See Everest video and don't be so quick to call out what tool is right for what job without prior experience using said tool. To mars and back! Make it happen DJI...
 
The IOS version looks very simplified form the Android one? How do you bring up GS and camera controls?

Really? You have the wrong equipment for the job!

You do realize that you can fly up 500 meters (1640.42 feet) from you takeoff point and still easily be under 400 AGL depending on the location? Not sure why you would think that someone that otherwise could fly safely and legally up a hillside should be prohibited to do so because an App or DJI said so.

What does your reply have anything to do with having the right equipment for the job?
 
I have heard great thinks about this app.

Will be watching for its availability for my iPad Mini.
 
Ok not quite yet! But we have been hard at work and are looking for a limited amount of testers to give us feedback. The waypoint mode is fully implemented using Google maps and is ready for testing for P3P, P3A and Inspire1 on both iPads and iPhones running iOS 8 or 9.

One question, Google is ending Google maps Dec. 12th, 2015. What will you use when that goes away?
