That wouldn't be effective with the drone moving forward though the rain, snow, or fog. Given the turbulence beneath the rotors not be effective even when hovering. Another concern is intruding into the field of view of the camera, unless it was well above the gimbal and/or short.

Here's what the FAA says. "As a result, ice accumulation is often greatest at temperatures not too far below 0 °C (32 °F), where LWCcan be abundant. LWC is usually negligible at temperatures below about -20 °C (-4 °F)." Details on page 9...

It can be, and not just at times when there's rain or snow.

That would still leave the problem of rain and snow on the outer surface of the cover.

I suggest calling DJI.

Anything like that would substantially degrade the camera images and video, like rain and melted snow do.

It's the Antigravity A1 8K 360 Drone Essential Bundle, $1599.

Was the altitude of each waypoint the same?

So, flying repeatedly with an obviously swollen battery finally caught up with you. Is the total number of losses eight or nine?

I've wondered whether the cloud of saltwater spray that hit the drone has any immediate effects on its operation.

If you're talking about the drone you lost during a waypoint flight beyond visual range, didn't it crash into a crane? It's a bit confusing keeping track of all you drone losses. Eight now?

Nice shots. You might want to tinker with time-lapse photos of clouds; they can be very interesting. Share what you shoot.

Stop recording, then change modes and begin recording again.

Almost all general aviation airplanes and helicopters use barometric altimeters. Due to the expense, weight, and complexity, only the military and very sophisticated GA aircraft have something more accurate.
