Default SS speck

I took the SS up to my highest alt yet today. About 3 minutes of climb and I turned the copilot to max as I could hardly see the plane. I did a ground visual of a 1/4 mile a couple days ago and it looked further than that. I have a 47M video but nowhere to host it?

A few hours later I strapped on a GPS instead of the camera and took it up a little ways. 800 feet, hit 36 mph on the way down.

I've seen the hot air balloon video, that must be awesome to cruise at 2K feet with a downlink. How high is everyone getting their SS's?
