So why do you think they removed it from Mavic Air and in what situation do you think CSC could actually be of use vs. just manoeuvering out the dangers way?

I always respect it and fly very conservatively but it still happened at one point and the aircraft lost power so fast (due to the strong wind I was not aware of) that it started landing directly into the sea. I barely managed to get it to shore that was about 1 km (0.62 miles) away from my RTH...

No, from what I gather you can hold it for 10 minutes (on Air) if you like and it will not turn off the motors unless it "detects" an emergency. And that's ok - I don't really see a scenario where SCS could save you mid air - by the time you activate it you could manuver out of the situation.

Here's a 15 page thread about it over at DJI's forum. Some people argue it was number one cause and some don't think it was, but the fact they removed it from Air proves it didn't happen as rarely as some may think. Within my 100+ flights with Air I came to that position around 5 times during...

That's why calculation is needed. If it has less wind resistance while flying from point a to point b - it should expect more resistance when flying back and thus make an approximation on shorter battery life.

This is the correct answer from my research as well, so no worries. The guy who said it's almost impossible to do CSC mid flight is also not correct, as that was the number one reason for falling out of the sky for Mavic's (also, not everybody flies in mode 2)

They replied already (and have it in their info); Turkey.

I wonder why doesn't DJI calculate approximate wind resistance and add it into battery equation?

Just use your warranty and take it to the shop you bought it from - they should take care of it or at least give you the address of the service shop that can fix it. If you're out of warranty send it back to DJI or try fixing it yourself.

Did you try just holding the sticks down constantly in a position while your wife rotated the aircraft to less than 90 degrees?
