The bird and batteries do have listed operating temp limits, but my experience is that its your mobile device that limits hot weather flying more than the Phantom itself. Some underpowered mobile devices are prone to overheating causing severe FPV lag and even shut downs. There were dozens of threads about it last year during the US summer months. I expect we'll see dozens more this summer.So how hot is too hot to be flying our bird? Weather wish....

That's funny that u posted this. I was thinking of posting something about flying in Arizona. I'll be going from New Jersey to Arizona next month don't know how long for yet, but I was going to ask how much heat u can fly in. Can u recommend any good spots to fly. I have never been there before..Just flew at 104. Flight was fine until about 18 minutes in. Got bad flicker and then the image was green on screen, but not sure if that was my iPad Air or the P4. Other thing is my range was seriously screwy would get low signal alert or disconnect only a few hundred feet away. I think I'll stick to flying in the mornin and evenings here in the Arizona summer

I will be working out there, probably for a couple months. I will be in sun city west AZ, were ever that is. Like I said I have never been there, any suggestions???I JUST got my P4 a week ago . We have a lot of beautiful scenery though. Where are you staying? The Grand Canyon, Sedina, Flagstaff, or any of our dozens of mountains and preserves make good spots.
