2 Pro DJI M2P caught in a storm

Wow, that was a brown pants moment! Great footage

Would it have made sense to drop to a lower altitude to try to get out of any wind before heading back to you? Just a thought

If I had indeed came back home with brown pants and completely soaked, my mother in law would have told me : "I told you that droning was a dangerous business"

Makes sense your comment about the altitude, but :
- Didn't really know if it was the case - From my appreciation, at 20 meters or 50 meters was the same
- Didn't want when I went over the island to be too close to roof-tops, antennas and church towers because if a sudden gust of wind pushed the drone into another direction, well, guess you get me ...

Thanks for sharing.

"Calm Waters" indeed....

Glad finally someone picked up the choice of the music

Well done you! Loved the video (even though the rain spoilt the video you originally intended). Brave little Magic Mavic…..and great piloting! I love my Pro 2.
