I flew today and I had to stop my flight when the battery was still 32%... due to « my feet » icing... it was f...g cold !!

Temperature was -3°C and wind gusts 50 hm/h and I did not have warm shoes and clothes. So I kept my altitude less than 10 meters and had to stop quickly.

So in my check-list, I’ll add some Items that are more ‘telepilot’ related such as, in winter : Big sockets, boots and some shots of ‘chartreuse verte’ to keep the pilot warm.


I also did an analysis of magnetic interferences on the roof of the car, and found around 50° differences between the center of the roof and the sides of the roof near the top of the rear doors. As I did not believe my eyes, I took a quick video of this and I’m downloading it on YouTube.


The conclusion is :


1) Never EVER take-off or land on the roof or the trunk of a car !!!

2) Never calibrate your drone inside your car neither (even if it is cold outside)

3) The Anafi is more resistant to cold weather than I am.
