Fort Sask.  Mine was in Cincinnati Friday morning and was to be delivered tomorrow (Monday).  Friday noon DHL update said it was on the truck!  The flight was made on Saturday.  Sure was cold, iPhone battery died in about 8 minutes.  Mavic Air flew very well.

When you get a new thing you just have to test it out.  Batteries can be an issue, my precautions, batteries must be fully charged, never start with a 1/2 or 3/4 charge and the battery must be a minimum of 20°C.
Biggest worry is the iPhone or iPad.  When exposed to cold their batteries go dead very fast.

We have a dry cold which is much easier to take than humid cold like you have in the UK.  Visibility is fantastic when it clear and cold.  I'm very pleased with how well the Mavic Air camera handled the bright environment.
