I thought I'd start a new thread for people to share experiences. I've had my 4Pro for 8 months but now that winter's here I'm facing new challenges. I've completed about 4 or 5 cold-weather flights, 3 of them with snow on the ground.
This morning's flight was with an OAT of -18°C. Besides the obvious stuff about keeping your batteries warm as long as possible- I could recommend having some sort of launchpad, even an old towel. The reason is that snow sprays up as you take off, melting on your warm camera lens then refreezing only a moment or two later and obscuring your view.
I kept the flight short and close but battery and aircraft performance were fine. The limiting factor was how long my trigger finger could endure the cold temperature. Probably not related to cold weather- but on an iPad Air 2, the DJIGo app crashed 6 times during this flight. (I've never investigated Litchi, is it more stable?) Thanks, guys.
