Disney characters seen from low altitude (4)
I believe the answer is:
walt
'disney' is the definition.
(Walt Disney)
'from low altitude' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'WALT' can be found hidden inside 'low altitude'.
'characters seen' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for walt that I've seen before include "-- Whitman, US poet" , "First name of Disney, cartoon creator" , "-- Whitman; -- Disney" , "-- Disney, cartoon maker" , "- Disney, cartoonist" .)
