[QUOTE="msinger, post: 79596, member: 18"] DJI doesn't recommend flying in wind speeds exceeding 10 m/s (22 MPH). Keep in mind that wind speeds near the ground are lower than wind speeds high in the air. So, if the wind speed is 10 m/s near the ground, you might find the winds are too strong for your Spark to hover in place at a higher altitude. While that won't cause the Spark to drop out of the sky, the wind could be so strong that the Spark wouldn't be able to fly back to the home point (causing it to drift away). Flying in strong winds will also deplete the battery faster. That could cause the battery to reach the critically low level mid-flight. If that happens, the Spark will auto land at its current location. [/QUOTE]
