    In this video, we are testing the flight capabilities of the DJI Mavic Mini on windy days. Due to its ultra-lightweight and small size, the DJI Mavic Mini cannot handle winds like larger more powerful drones such as the Mavic 2 Pro or Phantom 4 Pro. However, the Mavic Mini can definitely hold its own on windy days. In this test video, I do a hover test with winds at 44 km/h and wind gusts at 57 km/h to see if it can hold its position when hovering. I then take it for a quick flight in winds of 30 km/h with 45 km/h gusts to see if the drone can still record stable footage when the wind is strong and thrashing the drone about.

    Great test video mate.. Hmm the more videos I see on the mavic mini and the more drone video footage I see, I keep seeing that the mavic mini does not seem to auto focus very well on closer objects, the footage can be quite fuzzy, that's a bit disappointing. Even my spark has no issues with focus..

    Given that it still does move around a little, how far away from a target, let's say guttering on a roof, can I be and still get good details like seeing individual leaves inside the guttering? One of the uses I have for this new drone will be checking the guttering on my 2 storey home. We get winds like in your video often, so I am curious how good the camera actually is for that type of usage?
