Hi!
Please forgive me if this has been asked before, i *did* try to find it but did find the sort of detailed answer (maybe from Autel themselves) i crave for.
I believe the RTH speed is 10 m/s max, so from reading up i believe that would mean if you have a steady wind of 11 m/s coming from the home point the drone will never make it home, is that assumption correct?
-If NO, what actually happens? does it try to fly 10m/s "above ground"? If so whats the maximum it can reach, possible that 20m/s of ludicrous mode?
-If YES, is there a way to counter this? Like switching to ludicrous mode before? --> If NO, PLEASE Autel let there be a choice (where would i file that request)
Similar QUestiomn for hover, if the drone is hovering and in general wind speed is below 10m/s but gusts reach e.g. 15m/s, will the drone be "pushed away" or fight harder to withstain those gusts.
I *know* i just shouldn't fly under those conditions but sadly where i like to film (North Sea) weather is what it is and it often changes rapidly or is drastically different in different altitudes so please bear with me
Greetings & thanks for info!
