Default 5000+ feet video flight

Took off like normal, switched to RPV mode about 500 feet up, flew all the way to 1634 meters by video
only, with the help of my nephew, hes 13, he could see the plane that high! After I brought it down by video,
I got to about 300 feet and told him to point at the plane, he did, so when I transitioned from watching the
video monitor to the plane, I just followed where he was pointing, worked great! Total flight time: 12 minutes!
