    My drone was caught in a sudden wind storm or SQUALL, barely could RTH. Thought I'd share the experience.

    I'm out of Miami and I'll put it up in challenging weather within reason. I like the higher winds but use them to my advantage. Its the rain that will have me stay grounded since my M2P is my workhorse and would hate to lose it. Stay safe!
