Takeoff from a Tilted Surface

I have done all the calibration steps. Can I now takeoff from a tilted surface? Like the side of a hill?

Yes, as long as it's not too tilted. In other words, the launch surface doesn't have to be perfectly flat. Now if you try to take off from an extreme tilt, that's probably begin for an accident. If I really can't find a flat-ish surface to take off from, then I will prop some rocks or sticks/logs under a couple legs to try to level the take off position as much as possible. Just remember that your going to need a flat place to land.
