The bird is gone, I'll cut right to the chase. I live in the burbs of Philly and wondering if a P3 advanced is able to survive rain, freeze, and thaw cycles outside. Could be awhile until I find it. Thoughts?
Back story for those who want to hear: installed latest firmware yesterday. Planned a waypoint mission using FPV camera app. The bird was tracking fine to the first waypoint but lost signal with the remote about 2000 feet out. I didn't fret, as I had it set to continue the mission even if signal was lost. Fast forward 15-20 minutes and the bird never came back. I traced the majority of the planned flight path on foot yesterday and today. No avail. I live in a relatively densely populated area, would be shocked if someone didn't find it. I spoke to the police, golf course, and college in the area. No leads so far.
