On a couple recent flight days, I got high wind warnings. On Monday, okay, yep, it was windy and gusty. Crappy light anyway.

Yesterday, the wind was very light, no gusts. And yet I was still getting "High Wind" warnings. WTF?

Also got a couple of obstacle detected stops in flight turning through the sun. Bummer. May look at extending the "eyebrows" over the front obstacle cameras a few mm.
 
I'm cool with the "High Wind" warnings, but not being able to fly into the sun pisses me off.

The wind at ground level could be quite different from at altitude, i do think the warning is quite sensitive though...

I had that issue. I downloaded the latest version of DJI assistant and calibrated the vision positioning system and that did the trick. If you haven't already give it a try.
