What is the highest wind speed people have successfully flown the blade in?

I was trying to fly earlier today with very little success, I couldn't land back where I wanted to and only just managed to get the heli safely down.

The main problem seemed to be that the heli got caught in updraughts or down drafts and lifted swiftly or was pushed towards the ground, because I am not used to having to do much with the throttle this was difficult to counteract.

Is this the problem others have experienced when flying in a substantial breeze?
