( This film is a supplement demonstration to this 1 hour film "Drone Quad-copter flight control demo - Legislation (What they didn't tell you)" )
One of the flight problems in this is there becomes" a heavy crosswind that is quite visible halfway going to the tree" and the craft is tilting against the medium incoming breeze direction as it flies.Best seen stopping the film at 1:26 and 1:30
Also at the beginning as the craft lifts off, it immediately drifts hard left in the strengthening breeze.
At 2:02 watch it hover with steep downward tilt almost head on into/against the strong breeze (e.g. 6 mps)!
If wind is e.g. 3 meters per second at ground level, then abberatively "each successive ten meters up in altitude one meter p/second can be added".
This craft is often at 20 meters altitude and the tree height it will go around is 15 to twenty meters high, thus wind is probably 5 mps and gusting is around 7-8 mps as indicated when the craft faced back into the wind when it turned and got around to the other side of the tree, it seemed to point/tilt down and hover at the same time for a short period. The angle down was extremely steep(while accounting 20 degrees down for the camera viewing angle), some 30 degrees or more downward tilt drone angle without moving forward!
This is a Tarantula-X6 with a battery flight time of 5 minute rating, succeeding in a journey of around 300 meters in less than 5 minutes.
Warning! The battery is rated at 5 minutes flight and with drones is usually quite "immediate power loss" by that moment being reached!
Toy drones "the alike of" e.g. V686 are not able to handle wind beyond 3 meters a second(and should only bee flown inside or in properly wind shielded areas) - THEY ARE PROBABLY MOST OF THE REASON FOR MOST CRASHES AND THUS LAW UNREASONABLE LAW CHANGES AND BANS AGAINST DRONES, AS MUCH NON UNDERSTANDING THE SEVERE LIMITATIONS ANY SMALL ABSOLUTE-NON-PROFESSIONAL SIZE DRONES HAVE FOR POWER AND ITS' SUPPLY OF ELECTRICITY !!!!
FOR more information see "Drone Quad-copter flight control demo - Legislation (What they didn't tell you)".
"Unfortunately" toy drones(under 250 grams) are not safe to fly outside where light breeze or "breeze gusts" most often will send a toy size quad-copter from control because it is too powerless.
*** a note about when i say ..."full power"... at around 37:10 in the film, that is an attempt to lift the V686 up because it is sinking from a combination of air pressure change(sinking is how you detect that change and the weather changed from sunny to raining a couple of times in those few days and totaled around 7 or 8mm of rainfall) and from too little throttle power supplied for a short moment.
With small drones it can easily be too late as can be heard a moment before the small drone under 250g (V686 weighs just over 100g) crashes!
Their only result(V686) is losing power quickly and becoming uncontrollable !!!

This following link is naughty to put here but if you understand this as the base requirement with FPV(has separate charger) and 1080x720 and 200 meter range
you will crash less.
(if you are a novice buying two identical can save having to find another later after destroying the first on in training!)
