Took my Mavic out for a quick shake out flight. It was starting to get dark, so I kept the flight to a short 6 minutes. I also have a bit of experience with my Phantom 3 4K, here are my observations:
Too cloudy to get the rising obscured full(ish) moon but Friday the 13th was good for a quick flight.
- Much quieter than a P3. I'd call it a pleasant purr instead of the swarming bees sound of the phantom.
- I got a high wind warning, though the gusts didn't seem to be very high. Dropped altitude and still barely made progress. I had to tack against the wind, and flipped to sport mode and finally was able to make headway.
- Despite gusty winds, held position well. Footage completely stable
