Nice, how much is delivery of your wet suit to the UK?

Do you have any videos of the wet suit in action? Are there still any weak points the rain can get in? e.g. Micro USB port or charging port.

I did fly with light rain and went trough pretty dense clouds that got the Mini 2 even more wet than the rain itself. I started flying at 500m elevation and went trought the clouds, passed them, photographed/filmed above the clouds always without knowing the drone was wet. When I returned this is how it looked!

The Mini 2 didn't suffered any damage or malfunction but I wouldn't have done that flight if I knew how wet wit would get.

Yes they are. Mine had already a crash from a launch into a branch that ended in the bushes. Not a single mark.
