Note that you'd likely need all kinds of FAA/regulatory permits before you can go anywhere close to that altitude. IIRC the limit for non-permitted use is like 400 ft AGL

Unless your launch site is already at altitude? You could be 100ft AGL and 9900ft.

<p>I was wondering how high the DJI Mavic Mini could fly before the air became too thin. I know that there are restrictions in the app (and probably in the drone/controller itself) but if you were able to override those things, how high would it go (not including battery life)? Thanks in advance!</p>
