Just updated the 2nd youtube clip there so you can see the behaviour.
Hard to say how windy it was at that height, but it didnt feel that bad (compared to previous exposed flights) on the day. Of course I took a risk flying in the wind, but hey you take the risks to get the good shots! I was only thinking of the battery depletion afterwards, and yes it prob makes sense that it was too much for the M2P. Interestingly, there was another guy using a drone in the same area and had no problems at all with his flight.
Unfortunately, in this instance, I think the risk far outweighed the reward. It was a pretty tough situation to put any drone up into.
It may not have been overwhelmingly windy where you were standing, but you very well could have been sheltered by the hills and terrain above you. 1000ft up, even on calm days, the wind is likely 3 times as fast as it is at ground level even when not sheltered. |
