    DJI Air 2S on Amazon: amzn.to/3uSUNgb (link helps support the channel, thanks!!!)
    How well does the new DJI Air 2S handle extreme winds? I put it to the test with 70KPH winds to see how well it can stand up, and still produce usable footage (as well as being stable to control).
    In this test I put the DJI Air 2S through multiple trials and modes over a number of days of storm conditions, from manual mode to tracking modes like POI and Quick Shots. Plus all the usual stuff like taking off and landing, and some pro tips along the way. And of course, how it handles a wee bit of water spray too!

      I have a phantom 3 pro, it’s sketchy. I was flying in 100kmh/60mph winter winds in Minnesota when it was around -18F. The cold and wind wasn’t the worst part, the worst part was I was in the bluffs of the Mississippi River between Wisconsin and Minnesota. Lots of bald eagles flying around, I was surveying a solar array for the utility contractor and eagles were trying to strike my drone. My drone was throwing battery fault and sensor fault alarms 10 minutes into the flight from the severe cold.

DJI built that safety precaution into the software for emergencies only. For new people getting into this hobby/lifestyle, will think this is normal, they will do this on a regular thinking it is kool, or simpler to do. Please research this for yourself. And if you agree. Please let people know in a future video not to do this. Thanks for sharing this awesome video. 🚁☁️☁️☁️

    Not in the least bit excited for the 2S but way more excited to consider a DJI Pocket 3 with a 1 inch sensor since DJI tends to pair them together and leap frog them. In the order of Mavic Air/OSMO Pocket, Air 2/Pocket2. So lets hope for 2S/Pocket 3 to continue the tradition of sharing the same sensor. And with that Moaz screen competition, lets see if DJI will use that accessory port to include a flippy screen and a 1 inch sensor!!!!

But it was time to come back then I learned a hard lesson, I was going against the wind and didn’t have enough battery to get back. It was tragic watching the drone struggle in the wind to get back and watching the battery levels drop. It probably got 200 yards from me, then it went down the into the water. It was the ocean, I wasn't dressed properly to go get it. It was a terrible feeling walking back to the car just just the controller. It was lost. I think about it all the time. 😞😕

One thing I noted, though... I that in the cross-wind scenes (like in about 6:10 and onwards) we have some twiching like stepwards mowing on the gimbal when moving, not directly (or smoothly) compensating for the movement... What an horrible landscape, with industrial installment that looks like shit!
