General rule of thumb is if the wind is over 15 then its too windy for the flying of drones. I tend to use this with my P4P and never had any issues - UK. With the spark being a smaller device then the wind speed may have to be lower due to the vastly smaller foot print. Especially if the wind speed at 20m is good, when you fly higher, and you have to for any distance at all, the wind speed can triple in speed making it more difficult. I use the UAV Forcast app where you can see the weather conditions and set your fly height to see possible wind speeds. Saying this though, a few vids online show a leaf blower test with Mavic vs Spark and the Spark does quite well. Not worth the risk though.
Flying in windy, Spark just tries to handle it, you are getting warnings, but as long as you are cautious, its fine ... with the RC I had no problems readhing CE max limits (500 meters) ... it was just battery draining pretty fast ... |
