DJI TB48 Battery Insulation Sticker for Inspire 1 Quadcopter

I used these stickers in temperatures ranging from 15F to 30F. I couldn't get enough of them in time so on a chance I used double sided tape (the thick grey stuff with the red cover) for other sets of batteries. The double sided tape was far superior in keeping my batteries warm in those temps. I had to bake the batteries in the floor heater get them to around 30C and I got decent performance with the double sided tape. These insulation stickers seemed to barely keep the temperatures at optimum. I was still landing by 30-40% to be safe, and DEFINITELY watch your voltage!!! Do not trust the % completely, monitor that voltage. I had to call back a few flights early because the temps on the batteries and/or the voltage dropped fast. I had no incidents but it was definitely a challenge and extra stress keeping an eye on these things. I was flying an M600 Pro with max payload, so your mileage may vary for other models and setups. Best of luck to you cold weather drone flyers!
