    I had the Mini 2 up on a windy morning the other day. The gusts were over 25 mph but I'm not sure what the actual speed was (wind was increasing by the minute). Going into the wind I would hit gusts that gave me a wind warning and the quad would stop, the wind wasn't enough to push it backward but it couldn't move forward in normal mode with the stick pegged. I also had problems landing, I was shooting for a walkway because all the grass was covered with snow. I had a strong crosswind that blew the quad a good 75' twice, one time it was enough that the gimbal couldn't handle it, the gimbal rolled sideway and stayed there, obviously the wind was a bit past the Mini 2's limit. The temperature was 17F, I don't think that helped me any.

    Hi and thx for your videos that have been very helpfull to help me choose which drone to buy. I bought the M3 intending to shoot sailing videos. And I started this summer in a 18 knt wind at sea level, probably 25/30 knt up there at 50 m. As soon as I took off the drone said "strong wind. unable to go back home automatically. Reduce altitude and come back manually." How come your M3 doesn't say the same? Is it a real warning? Shall I really go back and land? All the best from France !

    i'm guessing here, but you need to learn how to focus (and meter your scene for light, since it does have mechanical aperture in the lens, which also affects sharpness etc) with mavic 2/3, specially if you didn't have to deal with that before (most of others are fixed focus/aperture drones). turn on focus peaking for start. it is advanced machine, which will get you best results when you learned it well and use manually. if you use auto everything, then just get a mini and call it a day..
