Just wondering I have ace 3  standard but would like to fly during the rain are there any waterproof drones

Look at something from DJI like the S900, S1000, etc. There might be some less costly models in the DJI line but I only know about the S Series.

Update: I researched the S1000 series and found that DJI actually (kinda) recommends AGAINST flying the S1000 in the rain due to:

ESCs are not water-proof, do not fly in rain or snow.

Take a look here.  http://www.dronetools.es/quasar/ and here  https://www.aeryon.com/aeryon-scout

Rainproof?

They say Mavic can , also there are some videos on you tube with amphibious drones.

You know what they say, never start a warranty claim with "they say"...

Unless it 's officially stated by the manufacturer, no drone can fly in the rain, at least not without taking an expensive risk.

Good catch! I also researched the S1000 series and found that DJI actually (kinda) recommends AGAINST flying the S1000 in the rain due to:

I'll take two to go...

Why fly in the rain?
A couple of drops on your camera lens and your images are garbage.
At the cheaper end of the scale look at Splashdrone or if you have even more to spend, the recently announced Matrice 200.

Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo-doo...
I'm droning in the rain
Just droning in the rain
What a glorious feelin'
I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
                                   

You can fly any drone in the rain! Don't know how long it will last before it falls out of the sky....maybe long enough to get your shot?

May be an umbrella can be installed!

this is why he's asking about *WATERPROOF* drones...

Yup! All drones will eventually fall out of the sky due to pilot error or mechanical failure....no matter how *WATERPROOF*
