Amazing what a fresh set of rotors does for the wind handling performance of the original Mini!  

2 weeks ago I was suffering uncommanded sudden descents from a partial loss of power when flying the original Mini in strong wind; the consequence of ignoring all those 'ESC Error' / &aposropellers Rotating Too Fast' / 'Max Power Load Reached' warnings.  

After changing the rear left set of props (which are the ones that most people get the warning about if they're storing it in the Flymore Combo case) the Mini performed admirably

So, now it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere, don't ignore those warnings if you're flying in windy conditions; change the props and fly strong

Thanks for the tips!

Great wind test.  Interesting how the new props made such a difference on original Mini.

I think this tip is covers all drones not just the mini.

Another nice video Ian! I mean every drone has a limit but I think the mini (still) is performing very well! Specially with new props....
