Yesterday out on the lake was quite windy with strong gusts. So strong that the Spark had a little difficulty maintaining a stationary hover. I had way of knowing for sure, but estimate the wind was around 10 mph gusting close to 20, maybe more (I believe max wind for the Spark is listed as 22mph). I was impressed with Sparky's ability to handle the wind (when we first got out on the lake, even my Visual Observer asked if it wasn't too windy to fly.) There's an impressive video here on the Spark's ability to handle wind.
Anyone have a recommendation for a good small anemometer to take with me? While there are several on Amazon, I like to hear from someone with personal experience. I'm leaning towards this one that is recommended over on the MavicPilot forum by someone who flies in the Rockies:
