Almost Crashed My DJI Phantom 3 Standard

[CFzone]

So I was flying on a really windy day, and I took off from the top of a hill (I know, very bad idea) and it suddenly started flying left, into a patch of trees. I managed to gain control again and landed as soon as possible. I learned my lesson not to fly on a windy day.

Anyone who says they never had a close call....well, just don't buy a used car from them and I'll leave it at that!

Never ever fly a drone with winds of more than 15 mph.
