Hi All,
I have made a couple little clips in the past few months, pretty cool that you can now buy a drone that handles 25knots pretty easy.

Dji Mavic pro



another is from up North in September/October (no drone).

No need for a helicopter anymore... well unless you want more than 20 min video. Cool footage!

If you want more then 20 minutes of footage just land and switch batteries.

impressive that the mavic can handle that sort of wind- i guess corro is ideal in that returning is always going to be a bit downwind.

Its not bad, it gets pushed down a little by the wind, if you stay on top of that there is no dramas.
like you said its not to bad flying back because of the onshore.

Biggest problem at Corros are the kites ... especially when you are flying backwards.

Also found the wind seems to drop a bit when you go above 50 meters.

On the P4 I found the gimbal starts having problems well before the aircraft starts drifting due to too much wind. Probably from about 30 knots it starts picking up high frequency vibrations.
