  2. Love you videos Tom. I have an issue with acclimatizing batteries in the cold. My Phantom 3 Pro will not work anymore if they get anywhere close to "0"c. They will run once when very warm but that's it. Maybe the Mavic is different. My first Phantoms would run in -20c multiple times.

  3. Hi Tom … John Greaney from New Zealand … I love your Videos … Can you please tell me where i can get some of those Gloves ….cheers from NZ

  4. Tom thanks for the video. Hovering for a short time after take off is always a good idea, its good to check small stick movements are being correctly interpreted before venturing off into the sky. However you might want to consider hovering above head height, say 10 feet. That way if anything is amiss with the aircraft it won’t decapitate anyone. All the best. Doug

  5. Good tips Tom although I need to take issue with your point about acclimatising batteries to the cold after removing them from your warm car in case of condensation.
    My understanding is that condensation happens when the situation is reversed I.e. when moving from cold the warm. Condensation forms on cold surfaces when they condense the water that has been absorbed by the warm air. You’ll only decrease the capacity by cooling them before use. You may as well use them warm surely. As you said yourself it’s a good idea to keep them warm inside your jacket.
