A (very!) short film from last weekend tweaking the the M2P camera to the limit. Still considering the M3 but happy to wait till the dust settles first.
 
You got to love when the winds are blowing hard , an the video footage is super smooth. Im pretty sure if I ever have a chance to fly near a water fall I want my drone to baptized by the sacred waters. lol. Its a nice video with a good aura.

Yes have been very impressed with the wind capability of the M2P compared to the original. You almost feel like you can completely ignore all the cautions coming up on your screen!

We have some video of 45 mph winds and even though the drone was loosing it hover position by 30 ft the video was clear and the Mavic 2 made its way just fine. So far the mavic 3 is also keeping true .

The warnings just indicate that the drone has identified a wind speed of 7 metres/sec or more.
Unless you are a long way downwind, 7 m/s isn't anything to be concerned about.

Flown 30-35: knots at ground. It was getting pretty bouncy. The biggest issue of course is making sure you have enough battery if you have to fly home upwind, which is evident from the lost drones in this forum
