Mavic Air Operating temperatures

[Former Member]

I did some field tests today and took some readings on the Mavic Air. It does not have an exterior heat sink as does the Mavic Pro, but it somehow still keeps itself well ventilated despite it's 4k processing power, and all it's innovations and high tech features.

Ambient temperature 67°, readings were taken at idle after 5 minutes run time.

Gimbal pitch motor temp 107°
Gimbal roll motor temp 95°
Gimbal yaw motor temp 101°
Battery temp 106°

Top shell on top of rear vent 110°
Rear vent outlet temp 120°
Motors 110°

Fan output speed at rear vent 9 mph

Is that in Celsius or the U.S. Standard of units for everything under the sun: Whimsy?

I really hope it's not Celsius.

No not in C. It's in F.

I dont think anywhere on the planet was 67c today.

I wish there would be underclocked mode for working with memory with usb, really stupid to run everything full blast when im only reading memory.

Battery temp 106°

Just be careful with this drone with you upcoming summer in the Northern Hemisphere, I find they get really hot (about 5-10°C warmer then spark/mavic) all the way up to 72°C or 162°F.

This is full sports mode on a typical summers day (~30°C).

Anyone tested it in the cold? I plan to take it out up north this winter and I don't want to crash my drone because of sudden battery drain at low temps.
