The maximum elevation allowed by the FAA is 400 feet. I was about 175 feet up for these photos. It is always highly recommend to keep a line of sight with the drone for safety. However, it can be flown up to 1 mile away. I have a live view of the camera on my tablet and GPS coordinates and a map of where it is. Pilot just needs to be sure it is high enough to avoid obstacles like trees or buildings. Also, if it loses contact with the remote, it automatically returns to the point where you took off, at a predetermined height that you can configure.
