No flying for a few days...

It’s supposed to reach triple digits temperature-wise around here for the next week, so I guess the XSP’s will be staying in their cases. Not complaining as I think of the folks in south east Texas and what they’ve been facing. It’ll cool off here soon enough.

Your OK up to 104, I live in AZ so I know what that is like. [emoji3]

To heck with the drone's tolerance, I wouldn't be flying in those temps.....

God Speed for those in the Hurricane path.

I'm with you, @ovrszd. I overheat at a much lower temperature than my XSP does!

What about the humidity? Low out there, right?

 

[Bigbit]

Right now, it’s 102 and 25% RH.

Down here It's kinda overcast, temp 88, humidity 53%. I'll trade humidities with you. That's actually somewhat low humidity for us, not unusual to be around 90% this time of the year. I look forward to spring and fall.

Humidity is usually really low, it is 18% right now.

Personally, I'd still go out for a flight or 2.

Ya my Xstar for sure is hot when it comes down even below 100, I generally dont fly in anything hotter than 102 for any extended period.

I agree.
Spent week in Scottsdale. Temp between 101°-105° when I went up. Got a solid 15 minutes on average with each battery.
XSP was a little warm, but did not seem to hot. I did not however do back to back flights with the 2 batteries I traveled with. Usually waited a few hours in between flights

I haven't been able to fly here for almost 2 weeks now because of the temps. I could fly in the mornings but I'm always too busy in the mornings unfortunately.

 

[tony.palumbojr]

Understandable, I was on vacation, makes it easier. Safe flying

 

[Tufargon]

I left Scottsdale 6 years ago. I thought I was leaving the heat behind lol.

The mountain road that I access for my drone flying has been closed over the holiday weekend due to “fire hazard”. Scheduled to open up on Tuesday. The heat wave is supposed to break here tomorrow as well. I’ll be back in the air soon.

That's good to hear, hope it gets better quickly.
