Couple things to note : We have been flying DJI drones now in the Rain for almost 6 Years, so we know a few things about the what are the weak links with the DJI drones and each Drone is very similar.
Weakest Link in the
Air 3 is the Power Button and Battery !! 30 Second tap water test will Comprimise your battery. Thus the Air Tight Seal that the Wet Suit Focuses on the Battery and Power button on the drones.
Once the battery is comprimised : Two things happen !
Warning on the controller that the Battery has disconnected from the Controller and the drone crashes.
Second thing that happens is you manange to land but the Battery can no longer take a charge.
Redirecting the Air flow is critical to Protect the ESC module and Sensors from burning out , a weak link on all the drones. The Wet Suits Design an compression ratios do this by Redirecting Air flow but not Blocking it.
Besides the Sensors burning out , they also get Confused from the Water , this is why all the Wet Suit have a Surge Mask on the bottom of the Unit to protect the Sensors , We learned this from landing on the Water with our Amazing Rescue Jackets.
Here is the
Air 3 Rescue Jacket in use , where the Drones back motors are getting submerged under water without issue as the 100% water proof meaning we have never had a motor failure on any of our drones when flying in the rain or snow.
Landing the Motors in the Fresh Water ,
Every Drone is fully sumberged under water and Reversed Engineered to an extent , testing the camera , gimbal vents an so on. The longer the drone can tollerate the sumbergion the better.
Submersion Example:
Thus Full Submersion Test help us to see the Hidden Weak Links and the Obvious , the end result were the Phantomrain Wet Suits developed to enhance your drone to fly in the rain.

Gear to fly in the Rain. Land on the Water , Capture the Extreme Weather an by god get the best Lightning Pictures .
NOTE: All pictures shot in the Pouring Rain even though you cannot see the Rain on the Camera.
