How cold are we talking? unless its extreme cases. Keeping batteries warm should keep you airborne. You can keep them in your pockets so body heat does the job or get battery warmers, but they use about 3% of the batteries power. The cold can also reduce flight time, so be aware of distance and...

Kitt Walker is already reserved for my next Phantom.

Do you know the legal flight ceiling where you are? There is a reason for it.

Thats just the price of blades, tires on your care are important what cost like 200 for all four ( last time I got 4 tires it was much less), but compared to the cost of whole car its one thousandth of a percent of the total cost. inflating (pardon the pun) the cost of tires wont make me feel...
