Carl, at your level of experience it's better to just not fly on the whippy wind days. If you don't feel confident in your ability to fly it in fairly calm conditions, it's not going to get any better in the wind. But of the two, your Spacewalker will definitely be easier to handle on windy days. When you're ready to really have some fun, get an Ugly Stick and start practicing backwards takeoffs and hover landings!
