I think he means is there a way to go higher. He lives in Portugal so I am not sure what the rules are there for height limits.

 

[Jagerbomb52]

Looking up the rules over there he is limited to 120 meters.

Drone regulations in Portugal. ... Maximum flight altitude: A drone is allowed to fly up to 120 meters in Portugal.

I suppose the silent asker confuses the terms ASL (Above See Level) and AGL (Above Ground Level). An Anafi can easily fly at an altitude of up to 4500 meters ASL and unofficially even higher. An Anafi, however, can only fly up to a height of 150 meters above the height on the takeoff spot while there is no restriction on flying at a negative height under the takeoff spot. That's how simple it is.

Fly safe, regards Leif.

Leif,

Of course I know this and most on this site but...this is a great explanation to those who don't.

So I can safely drop down 400 feet from my takeoff point without doing anything special? Good! Thought there were issues with doing so.

If you plan to fly downhill just bear in mind that you will need a LOT more energy on the return flight (uphill). I don't know if the Anafi developers have taken this into consideration when initiating a RTH based on battery charge?

That makes sense.
For whatever reason I thought flying lower than the takeoff point was not a good idea.
