71.56 mph? :astonished: Well done! Is your’s modded? I can’t seem to get much more than 46 mph out of mine, and that was riding the 27 mph Easterly wind today (with 46 mph gusts). What am I doing wrong :thinking:

The only mod for that was to enable atti mode the ride the wind.

They are GPS speed limited - wind doesn’t really make a great deal of difference … until the wind is more than the drone’s max air speed.

Thanks. Just figured out how to repurpose the Tripod mode for Atti mode. Will try that and report back :+1:

Cheers, never knew that. Everyday’s a school day :wink: Thanks Dave :+1:

I swapped Tripod mode for Atti mode this afternoon, then took her for a spin.

It makes quite a difference :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I do like Atti mode, it’s like drifting with a drone. I can also see this producing some excellent video, as there is no abrupt breaking, as with GPS mode.

But not, as yet, a big enough difference. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Yeah, yeah :wink: First ever bash at Atti mode … and whilst walking like John Wayne (after the fall) :laughing:

@PingSpike … managed to squeeze a little bit more out of my Mini 2 :dash: between Teams meetings …

Faster than Ian @ianinlondon’s Mavic Air 3 and Steve @McSteamy2010’s Air 2S :pray:

Have you been feeding Brussel sprouts to the Mini2 for it to be that turbo charged?

That’s 37% faster than the existing record … that you already hold!

Yes, the kids didn’t eat theirs, so fed them to the Mini 2 on Boxing Day :laughing:

It surprised me too, jumping 10 places on the leaderboard - the Mini 2 was 25th fastest, but now equal 14th fastest :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

That’s a load of editing then … :rage:

:stuck_out_tongue:

Brussel sprouts + Mini2 = Attitude :dash:

Wow but 2 questions

How did you get it to stay in atti mode?

And why are you using flyapp 1.2.1?

I set Cine Mode (Tripod) from 12 to 3 in the Advanced paramters of Drone Hacks software.

Pass. That is what I downloaded.

Wtf! Was it tethered to the 2pro? :scream:

Funnily enough, my M2P couldn’t even reach that speed until a couple of days ago.

But to answer your question, nope … riding 18mph wind in Atti mode :wink:
