Some really nice stone houses out there, but I couldn't fly near enough. Nasty weather and no post processing. It's rainig day.

Don't see much rain, problem with flying in the rain is your lens gets covered in water, and your footage gets spoiled. Is this near plodiv?

In my rain flying experience (only once), I also noticed some instability (shaking?) which I presumed was transient effects of water on the props causing (temporary)  differential performance issues - i.e. some props temporarily losing some lift..

The instability was temporary, as you said. From time to time there was slower responsiveness.  I assume, it depends, if some drops are falling on the props.
