DJI Neo 2 vs DJI Flip: wind resistance
Rated wind limits, the limits Altiwind scores against, and how the same forecast lands for each.
Same wind rating. Both are rated for 10.7 m/s (24 mph), so their limits in Altiwind are the same: sustained wind within your limits up to 14 mph at flight height, marginal up to 20 mph. The Flip is heavier (249 g against 151 g), which helps it hold position in gusts, but the rated maximum is the same.

The same forecast, both drones
How a 10 m forecast scores for each at 120 m (400 ft) on open land by day. At night or over towns the wind up there is stronger still.
| Forecast (10 m) | At 120 m | Neo 2 | Flip |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 mph | 14 mph | Within your limits | Within your limits |
| 15 mph | 21 mph | Outside your limits | Outside your limits |
| 20 mph | 28 mph | Outside your limits | Outside your limits |
| 25 mph | 35 mph | Outside your limits | Outside your limits |
| 30 mph | 42 mph | Outside your limits | Outside your limits |
Cold and rain
In the cold, both are rated down to -10 °C; Altiwind adds a battery warning below 5 °C for both. For rain, neither has a water rating, so Altiwind treats rain as a limit for both. See flying in cold weather and fog, rain and humidity.
