Weather conditions categorized by safety level
Clear skies, wind under 4 m/s, temperature 5-35°C, no precipitation
Light clouds, wind 4-8 m/s, temperature 0 to 40°C, no rain
Strong wind over 8 m/s, rain, fog, temperature below 0°C or above 40°C
Understanding weather impact on flight performance
The W5 can handle winds up to 8 m/s, but strong gusts can affect stability and battery consumption. Always monitor wind conditions before and during flight, and use the return-to-home function if conditions worsen.
The W5 is not waterproof and should never be flown in rain or wet conditions. Water can damage the electronics, motors, and camera, voiding your warranty. Always check weather forecasts and avoid flying if precipitation is expected.
Extreme temperatures can significantly impact battery performance and flight time. In cold weather (below 0°C), batteries discharge faster and may not provide full capacity. In hot weather (above 35°C), the drone may overheat. Always keep batteries at optimal temperature before flight and monitor battery levels closely in extreme conditions.

Common questions about weather limits and flight conditions
The W5 can safely fly in winds up to 8 m/s. However, we recommend flying in winds under 4 m/s for optimal stability and video quality.
No, the W5 is not waterproof and should not be flown in rain or wet conditions. Water damage will void the warranty.
The drone can operate in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C. Extreme temperatures can affect battery performance and flight stability.
The W5 has a flight time of approximately 26 minutes under ideal conditions. Wind, temperature, and flight patterns can reduce this time.
The W5 can reach speeds up to 16 m/s. However, higher speeds consume more battery and reduce flight time.
If you encounter winds stronger than 8 m/s, immediately return the drone to home position. Use the return-to-home function if available, and land as soon as safely possible.
The drone can operate in temperatures down to 0°C. In cold weather, battery life may be reduced, so keep batteries warm before flight.
The W5 weighs 215 grams. This weight affects flight stability, battery consumption, and portability.
