    Here's your complete guide to not crashing your DJI Mini 2 on a strong windy day. In this video I show you how well it handles (and doesn't) on a crazy windy day. The official weather station at the end of the pier eventually topped out at 67KPH within the hour timeframe I was there. Here's the full guide:
    0:00 Intro
    0:46 Taking off
    1:30 Into the wind
    3:00 QuickShot Test
    4:11 Slow-mo footage
    4:46 Max speed attempt
    5:45 Really struggling
    6:07 Low battery warning
    7:25 Drone Wind Explainer

    Wow, perfect scenario for a disaster hehehe. Small drone with lots of wind, salt water, almost no land to land, Seagulls flying around, lost stick on the controller, starting with 89% battery, landing with 13% power. Big balls you got there!

    This is a great video. I have a mavic mini 1 and i'm positive it would not have handled that wind nearly as good. I have had so many close calls with wind and losing connection with my mini, but I still think it is a great drone. If you want combine the better stability with Occusinc 2.0, the mini 2 is all you need if you are a novist. This video is impressive and has convinced me to upgrade.
