I fly my P3A every weekend and sometimes after work during the week. I set my take off limits to a ground windspeed of 10 MPH using an anemometer and I also consult UAV Forecast where I have my limits set and it gives me the go/no go info. I also consult with 1800wxbrief.com or Flight Service for the current weather from the local airport. According to HealthyDrones the wind gusts have been a lot higher than 10 MPH when I've flown but so far nothing the P3A can't handle
On each of my outings I usually will flip it to Atti to practice flying without GPS. I tend to fly in circles overhead. This seems to attract the curiosity of hawks who come over to give me a look. Not too close mind you but just a friendly look. This past weekend there were 15 overhead circling. Since we don't have zoom capability the shots are not great but then in post production I zoom in to show the birds.
