Great scenery there, love them. And please kindly be aware of keeping warm to make sure a good control of the drone, coz, you know, when the fingers numb, it is not easy to feel the output of the sticks.

I got this Thor. Cold is all in the mind. Got a battery warning though despite battery warmers before the flight. She did well though.

Which battery warmers do you have?

I bought a USB heating pad and a small tool box. The batteries are wrapped in the heating pad and then placed in the tool box. This is then plugged into my car USB port and I warm them on the journey from home to where I am flying. It has worked so far with no damage to the battery or the cells. I check the voltages etc of each battery before flight to check for abnormal cell voltages. Cheap and easy solution that works.

Sounds like a good setup!
