Could I damage my drone flying it in 107 degree weather in Phoenix battery got hot so I stopped after a few min just wanted to get some input on temperature [emoji855] with my bird
I've never heard of any limit ... just the recommended Operating Temperature Range in the specs.DJI Limits P3Ps and P3Ss to 104F, it's in the operator's manual.
Limit/ recommendation - DJI put in the manual for a reason. Personally I would recommend "compliance".I've never heard of any limit ... just the recommended Operating Temperature Range in the specs.
A limit is something that stops you.Limit/ recommendation - DJI put in the manual for a reason. Personally I would recommend "compliance".
EDIT: In the Appendix for the P3P flight manual under "Specifications" it list an operating range of 0C - 40C. I see nothing of these values of being a "recommendation."

As there is nothing to prevent you flying in 107 degrees.
But the specs state: Operating Temperature Range32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C)
I made no comment on what anyone should do.I fly my drone like I fly airplanes - "within specs."
Fly your drone at 107F.

I was just saying that there is no limit.
I still haven't expressed an opinion.Your opinion and you're entitled to it.
There is no such limit.
You're very disagreeable.And I disagree. P3P Operator's manual, page 54 "appendix," "specifications," 14th highlighted line down. Now I'm done.
Actually, there's already a temperature sensor in the battery, and values are logged in the Flight Records. DJI already prevents you from charging the battery if it's too hot, and it would be super-easy for them to add some logic that would prevent the AC from taking off if temperatures are outside a given range. Many car/airplane/helicopter ESCs have a temperature sensor, and built-in logic so they reduce power if they are getting too hot.Or are you expecting DJI to put a temperature sensor in the drone too? Then you can complain that they didn't calibrate it correctly.
