Max wind speed for the Blade 120S is 3MPH. Max wind speed today was 9MPH. However there were some calm spaces where the heli flew well. Did some fast passes practicing quick turns (whatever it's called...). This little thing is pretty fast. The high wind speeds gave me some practice fighting the wind trying to keep it stable. But 9MPH is a bit too much. Full forward to overcome the wind then spin around just to see it shoot up into the air. Bringing it back down from 50' against the wind is hair raising when there are trees around.
I'll be glad when this windy month passes and we get a few calm days in a row. Either that or build a large gymnasium...

Just kidding. Having fun with emoji! To windy to fly for me too but we did break record temperature of 96 degrees today.
