I like the sunshine or snow. Was wishing we would have been hit hard want to try my xterras new tires out. Lol but I will take what ever weather comes up way and make the best from it.

All the best, whatever you do

Do you think it’s worth investing in the nd filters

I'm not really the right person to ask. Several years ago I bought a set for my Phantom P4, but they were so fiddly to fit and remove I soon gave up.  There are threads on here about the merits of filtering if you browse a little.  The results for me were inconclusive.

Yeah I know just thought I would ask. I more or less just like taking some photos n posting them if I think they look good. I don’t trust the mini enough to take some other photos I want to. Like of our dam or follow it down stream to make horsey story’s of it dropping over water

As long as you don't try to fly low over water you should be OK.  There are horror stories of people drowning their drones, but there are also numerous great videos on here flying over water. It's up to the individual to calculate the risk, I guess.

Yeah that’s understandable. I think I will when the weather is just right. But lately here in maryland the wind has been my down fall. Sometimes only get one short window to fly. Then done for the day again

You don't mention which flavour of drone you fly?  These days I have the Mavic 2 Zoom and a Mavic Mini 1.  I sold the P4 and the MPP some time back.  The M2Z handles pretty well even if the wind is lively, but the Mini gets rather frisky in even the slightest wind. It does produce great results when the conditions are right though.

I wish I could afford a zoom. I have the mini 1 and hoping to get the mini 2 after x mas. I have had her up in just around twenty mph. I keep it in sport mode at that point. And have made it 2700meters out and back in urban environment. But that was flying a lot higher then should have been.

A lot further, too

Yeahs it’s the o my way to keep the signal strength up to keep it going other that that u can’t even make it 1000meters.

Great weather: snow and blue sky!
