Flew above a dense fog this morning, had a surprise when the drone landed Maybe DJI would want to introduce a de-icing feature on their drones?

Yes I know, among many things. I did not expect it to freeze like that.

That was actually pretty cool, I heard like rain-x on the props can prevent icing. Not too sure about that one though as I don't want to test it out haha

RAIN-X  is not ment for plastics...with its alcohol based product .....it even says that on the instructions on the bottle....might experiment with a teflon wax....But be careful like the drone pilot said above....Icing will cause that drone to fall out of the sky !  Good luck and )))))))))--------()    drone on >
