Hey thank you for your reply and the videos. I can see from the flags that the wind was strong.I just got back from a short trip to Chicago. I thought it was difficult flying the drone due to the number of people around. Also the wind, in fact I almost lost my phantom into the lake due to the wind. I did manage to get a few good videos, here are two. If anyone is interested I identified some good isolated spots to film navy pier and the buckingham fountain.
You mentioned you almost lost your Phantom. Since I never take off in such conditions I have no experience with this. Did it just drop from the sky or it started moving in the direction of the wind?
I would only fly at the sunrise at the areas where I'd expect people.
