Sorry to hear about the loss of your Phantom 3 DroneAlps.
With battery operating temperature being so critical, I'm somewhat surprised the drone would allow take off before this had been met.
Sure, it could be frustrating having to wait for warm-up when necessary, but a "Not Safe to Fly - Yet" which can't be ignored or bypassed,
would be much better than a total loss.
Judging from the temperature in the posted log images, another minute or so warming up would have probably seen you through.
Not having much experience cold weather flying, I'm not sure if the battery warms more quickly on the ground or whilst in flight.
So, perhaps there is a reason why take-off is not restricted in such a way.
Still, a horrible loss in an unforgiving environment. I imagine a loss to us all, as we don't get to see the breathtaking scenery you would have taken. |
