Guys,
A CW is right. While Spark can fly in Sports mode up to 50 km/hour, it may not hold against the wind of this magnitude. Even though I would not do high wind experiments on my own (I just treasure my Spark and do not want it to fly away because of my ill-founded curiosity), I saw enough logs of fly away Sparks on this forum (carried by the wind) to conclude that while Spark can hold its a position in wind with speed X - once it starts RTH sequence it may be blown away by the wind of the same speed X. So - do not push it. 30 km/hour (perhaps few klicks more) - as A CW says may be OK. More - you are asking for trouble and DJI may hold it against you if Spark flies away, The best course of action is to just heed DJI recommendations.
In addition, gusts of winds may be stronger higher up. You may see Spark holding at 2 metres and be blown away at 50. |
