FIMI X8 Pro wind limit

FIMI’s rated wind resistance, recommended limits in every unit, and what a ground forecast means at 120 m.

FIMI doesn’t publish a wind resistance figure for the X8 Pro. Altiwind then uses a cautious 7.9 m/s (Level 4, 18 mph) as its limit, so 20 mph (8.9 m/s) of steady wind at flight height would already be Outside your limits.

Cold weather

FIMI rates the X8 Pro down to 0 °C. Batteries lose capacity in the cold well before that, so Altiwind marks every hour below 5 °C as marginal with a battery warning, and below 0 °C as outside your limits. A 0 °C lower limit is common for this class: below freezing, keep flights short and batteries warm until takeoff. More in flying drones in cold weather.

Rain and moisture

There is no water rating stated for the X8 Pro, so Altiwind treats rain as a limit: a rain chance of 20% or more is marginal and 50% or more is outside your limits. Fog and low cloud also cut visibility, which the score checks separately. See fog, rain and humidity.
