I've only read that if you pass the operating range that it flat lines at the maximum supported limit until it passes back down to the normal operating range. It was also rumored that it throws off the sample rate.

I fly low n slow and do not think I'd hit the top end supported altitude.


It is supposed to work normally since you have a long time to fall back to the selected main deployment altitude where you most definitly in operational range. I think that is pure barometic readings for main deployment.
