[QUOTE="nilanjan118, post: 89493, member: 13902"] I have never flown in beginner mode. My advice for any new pilot is - stay clear of the highest obstacle in your vicinity by about 10 feet and you will be fine. Usually new pilots are not very confident of sending the bird up high. But if you think of it, height is never the challenge. The real challenge is not hitting obstacles like trees, buildings, electric poles in your flight path. For semi-urban areas with not more than 2 or 3 storey high buildings, 20~25m is enough to stay clear of most obstacles. Sports mode however is a different ball game. It takes a while to get used to the fast response of the sticks, speed and braking distance of the drone in this mode. In any case, if you are high enough, you are safe. So contrary to general practice, I think newbies should start from a higher altitude, say, 40m for practice and then gradually bring the altitude down as they get used to the controls. [/QUOTE]
