Here in SW Phoenix you can count on ambient temps being above 105 degrees F or higher daily all summer. This summer has been warmer for sure, we are enjoying temps of 110-122. I fly in the desert often, so I keep a frozen cooler pack in my drone hard case, to keep the batteries cool and to help the cool down after I'm done. One thing I do is the day before I fly I start drinking electrolyte drinks that night. I also drink them on the day I fly and I have noticed I function better and I don't feel wrecked afterwards from dehydration. I follow the rule I learned in the military and force myself to drink 12-16 oz. of fluid every hour (Min). There are a couple of signs you can look for to prevent heat exhaustion/heat stroke. If you stop urinating and or your urine is cloudy or dark can be good indications you are becoming dehydrated.

I'm not necessarily enjoying the PHX heat. What kind of drone do you fly and what time of day?
@gunnersecuador75154 ай бұрын
@@stephensteger374 I have a Mini 3, and normally will fly in the mornings, late afternoon, or after dark when it's not too bad. The heat for sure affects the flight time, but I have not had any issues with swelling batteries or any flight issues. I try to keep the drone moving to provide some airflow but it still gets pretty warm upon return. I also keep a freezer pack in the bottom of my hard case to help cool things down after a flight. I don't let things get too cool as I fear there could be condensation from breaking out a cold battery into the intense heat. I normally blow out the drone body and motors with compressed air to clear any dust etc.

I believe you have missed an important safety aspect concerning density altitude.Heat and humidity are the nain drivers in this condition.Higher density altitude affects not only winged aircraft , but drones as well.More power required at higher altitude. Altitude of my area is aprox.3000 ft (900m) above sea level.Density altitude has been at 6000 ft.plus on some days.As responsible pilots I believe we need to acknowledge ALL environmental effects on our aircraft.

As aways, great job explaining the overheating issues and the smoke & fog related issues. I have gotten suprised by fog and quickly moving cloud but I have never had it attempt to land. It did however report low vision when the sneaky cloud blew in, As soon as I saw the flow coming into my lens, I swooped my Mavic 3 Cine into sports mode and shot like a rocket to get back to my home point. I love the idea of that personal cooling unit. Living and droning in Florida or just working around home can take a lot of the fun out of flying and enjoying your yard.. I checked out your store and some of my favorite products which I also ended up purchasing are the Firehouse Lights which I found were the brightest on the market with most reliability as well as my number one most favorite is the DJI Mic 2. The noise cancelation is amazing. I use it both professionally for video productions as well as for doing live drone streaming and just to capture some of my testing.
