Can I Fly My Drone in the Rain?

[@Joe-wk9ow]

you could always mod your drone to make it more water resistant. Like adding a special coating.

[@uavcoach]

True!

[@Bluearmy55]

How?

[@Partimepeasant]

Hey skippy, does the Air Force fly there drones past line of sight ? Thanks Mr. FAA.

Your videos are amazing, no fluff, just straight business

[@uavcoach]

Appreciate it! Any other videos you want us to make?

[@Stefan_Boerjesson]

As You say, most drones are not specified for rain. Maybe You will look at temperature next time. A friend flying a 5 year old Mavic 2 pro experienced something looking like a battery collapse, likely due to low temperature. His machine was specified for 0 degrees Celsius. My Mavic 3 pro, -10 degrees, and it was used in -8 without problems. Low temperature outside and a quick change from room temperature, condensation on the lens, or behind it.... Things to consider.

Na he had problems bc he had 5 year old batteries lmfao

[@Stefan_Boerjesson]

@@w.e.s. Yes, and no. The batteries still work fine when the temperature is a little bit higher. Don't know if he had been flying in low temperatures in the past. It didn't sound like that. Personally I keep the batteries at room temperature in the car, not out on a bike....

When you live in the PNW, you NEED something that can handle the wet

[@uavcoach]

Hahaha true! Some awesome around that area!

Is there any " *Hands on Training* ," instructors in the Pinellas county florida area? I am interested!

[@uavcoach]

The cities in Florida we have flight instructors are Cape Coral, Miami Beach, Palm Bay, and Port St. Lucie. You can find more details here: uavcoach.com/drone-training/#book

@@uavcoach unfortunately the four areas are no longer close to me. At one time I lived in Miami as a first responder for years but since retired and moved 5 hours away.

[@uavcoach]

[@kiwoxgen9929]

I just watched MFghost s2 It's just ridiculous, how the drone remain stable following the car in heavy rain 🤣

[@erikdendress]
