Flying in kitesurfing wind conditions above sea

[lammetje]

Hi, after reading some topics about flying in strong wind conditions, i tried flying in wind conditions between 15 - 18 knots. I disabled all collision sensors on my Mavic. The flight was going ok, but with a lot of strong wind warnings and even at one moment an compass error. Anyhow i flew two full batteries. The outside temperature was around 12 degrees, i was using firmware .400. Flying height between 60 - 70 meters and i calibrated the compass before the flights.

I made this video edit of it :

Nice and what a great 'pool' on the beach for kite surfing, also being nice and high avoids any contact with kite lines.
