How windy is it where you live? I've flown the Mavic Pro over the Pacific and Lake Michigan through what I would describe as a "healthy breeze". I think its max wind speed is approx 22mph, but can't find a reference for it.

I'd say rule of thumb is if you wouldn't want to eat a nice brunch in it, you don't want to fly in it.

edit: Pretty sure it uses GPS, compass, and gyro to stabilize itself relative to the wind.If gentle winds are causing it to drift too much, you might be having trouble with one of those. You might want to calibrate compass and make sure you're getting good GPS reception. I've found stabilization is not good in WiFi control mode either.

It was in the desert outside of Las Vegas. It was a pretty strong wind.

You're probably right. Too bad too, probably some good footage to be had out there!
