Is it just Western Europe, but there seems to be an extraordinary amount of wind of late. Very frustrating trying to schedule fly time around the vagaries of the elements.
It is a held belief that MRC's will be grounded due to wind when the Heli guys can fly. As regards AP, it is doable given the right platform, camera mount and light but AV is another matter as regards shooting usable footage.
I am considering a heavy lifter..... So, what is a Fly wind and what can we do in the build process to increase the chances of flying in wind ? Are we largely restricted by the limitations of fixed pitch and must we concede that Helis are a better choice in wind ?
