In UK?
It's not better here ...
I recently had to play monkey in order to take down a satellite antenna from the roof (Fortunately only 4 screws at the back, simple to remove, without disturbing anything)
Wind up to 150 - 170 km / h in strong turbulence.
We only live at ~ 750m altitude
In recent days, wanting to test a drone (which I returned) ... I have gone "crazy"
Now the sun was shining through a cloud cover at 5/10, time to prepare everything, walk 300 m towards the fields, and there, 10 minutes later ... rain & wind ... so return home ... grrr.
1 hour later same "scenario" ...
Anyway ... that day I was able to walk at least 4 x2x300m, 4x2x30 m vertical drop and 4 x ~ 4-8 min flight.
Very useful a drone-> Fitness days
Good flights & video

I thought i was a real boss, flying the Anafi in 40km/hour winds and seeing the trees in the footage sway back and forth while the image looked perfect stable.
I was not so happy flying back across a big river in sport mode with all limiters off at only 3m/sec instead of the 14m/sec with the Anafi drifting to the side a little :-D
it would be great if the freeflight6 app has the option to show a wind arrow with a speed number on the mini map!
but yeah if you don’t trust it, don’t fly in the wind. A grounded Anafi with only 200 meter range is better than an Anafi lost to the winds forever!
