If there is a strong enough flare, there will be no GPS. In fact, worse-case, it might destroy the GPS satellites! That would take a pretty large one, but you never know. That said, I have never had an issue on a "high" index day. It shouldn't really make a difference what drone you're flying. It is a geomagnetic issue and can do great damage in extreme cases. Check out what a flare did many years ago.
If a huge solar storm will hit earth, we are all thrown back to the middle ages.
The only benefit from it will be that many more people can watch the northern light.
