Today I went out for some evening video and photography at a local beach. I arrived at about 6:30 and flew one battery and shot some video. After landing I sat down to just enjoy the atmosphere and soak up some people free time and the sound of waves as I waited for the right sunset shot. My bird was sheltered during that waiting period (about an hour) but there was a strong onshore breeze picking up sea spray. The bird was slightly damp from the mist. I flew my sunset mission and got photos, then packed up and came home.
So far I've wiped it with a dry rag, then a barely moist rag, followed by another dry rag. The props I washed under lukewarm water with no soap.
I haven't tackled the camera yet, other than a very gentle wipe with a glasses cleaning cloth avoiding the camera lens, which does have the factory filter installed.
Any advice is welcome. I need to learn this care as salt mist and spray will be a constant in my photography life.
