The worst thing about flying in cold moisture is getting condensation in your camera lens and on the circuit board inside the drone. Many people make the mistake of bringing the drone inside after flying in the cold air and then directly bringing it inside with heat. It’s always a good idea to wrap the drone in cloth before coming inside and keeping it dry before entering then sitting it somewhere inside that is a little bit cooler allowing it to warm up gradually. If you start getting condensation on the circuit boards then later on down the road you will start having issues.
ICE has caused so many plane crashes you can't count them on 10 fingers, most aircraft has de-icing heaters in the wings these days, but would be very difficult and impractical to implement on a drones props.
This was honestly a bit frightening when it happened. I can't imagine it happening to a much larger aircraft. It definitely would be impractical to put on to a drone but it would be interesting to say the very least.
Thanks for sharing with us! Very interesting and useful video! Thanks for the tips!
Much success to you 😊

Wow! Dude! Move to Texas problem solved. You're welcome.

Good to know!!! Thanks for making the video.
No problem. Glad it was helpful.
You can use rain-x on the props before flying to stop moisture gathering on the props and freezing, works well for me :)
Thank you for sharing. Great advice!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice video...
Below 35° and Visible moisture within 4° of the dewpoint will cause ice to form
Appreciate you putting this here cuz I definitely forgot what the exact weather measurements were.
