Just got back inside from a 14 minute 16000 foot round trip flight. Maximum 4300 foot distance at 412 feet AGL. As most of you know I have been having video feed issues and was testing a new start up procedure. I had zero problems on the flight and video was rock solid and averaged 16 sats on GPS. Oh. BTW the Kp index was 6 and it was severely overcast.
Guess Kp index is pretty darn meaningless.
My thoughts too exactly, too many things get blown put of proportion like solar flares and bird flu

It about the gps accuracy, that will fall with increasing KP. On another project (auto quad) we monitor the horizontal and vertical gps accuracy. With a kp <4 the hacc is between 30-60cm, about kp4 it becomes between 100-200cm or worse.
in short, with higher kp, the position hold becomes less accurate and can become a problem
When flying at higher altitudes above ground level you probably will not notice due to your perception of the copter, but it will swing a bit more with higher kp
