At the risk of sounding silly, you may need to be able to convert temperature from Celcius to Farenheit and/or back again to know what your field conditions are in order to make informed decisions about battery life, flying behavior, time, etc.
To convert C to F: C(1.8) + 32 = F
Example: Temp in Celcius is 8 degrees. 8(1.8) + 32 = 46.4F
To convert F to C: (F-32)/1.8 = C
Example: Temp in Farenheit is 30 degrees. (30-32)/1.8 = -3.6C
I fly in near Phoenix, AZ where it's mostly sunny all year, but I will be flying in Flagstaff next week (snowy conditions). Hopefully this is helpful to someone. You may not always be able to plug a number into a conversion table while in the field.
Happy Holidays and safe flying!
