I recently had a scare where I put my P3 up above tree level and boom the wind took it, entirely my fault no questions asked. Thankfully I managed to get it back safely but it was a close run thing and at one point I was considering flying into the ground to avoid a flyaway.
Since then I have been gone through some youtube videos concerning blown away drones. Whilst doing so I have seen a number of respondants say that if, when flying directly into the wind, the drone can not make headway then flying at an angle to the wind may work.
To me this implies that the drone's maximum airspeed when flying at an angle to the wind MUST be faster than its maximum airspeed when flying directly into wind.
Does this approach work, if so can anyone explain how it works?
