Test flying My DJI Mini 4 Pro Drone in the RAIN, here in Sibley, plus a little plane puddle jumping!

I don't remember this much rain in a while, and while it was raining quite hard, I decided to use a puddle to test the floats on Magnum Cartoon plane and also fly my DJI Mini 4 Pro and see how it handles the Rain. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe.

Well all that rain will help to keep Sibley green and beautiful. Awesome footage! Sibley really is pretty in the summertime. Semper Fi.

Your drone is so steady I thought the footage was from your simulator. Sibley is a nice looking little place.

I always try and avoid getting my Dji Mini 2 wet, in the 3 years I’ve had it I think it started raining once while I’ve been flying. Well done putting the plane down in the puddle, you made it look easy lol 😂

They are pretty water resistant for sure and the spinning blades actually keep it dryer. Thanks kindly.

Great drone footage Dave and that large puddle made for a perfect floats plane landing strip. Not sure if your radio will like the rain as they are not water proof. Hopefully the Mini 4 Pro has better water sealing than the Parrot Bebop 2 drone which I had years ago and after flying in very light drizzle it lasted for about 6 months then fell out of the sky. Had corrosion on the mainboard.

Thanks much. I had other drones, inclucing my Yuneeq Q500, but this one is the only one I can fly in the rain. I sprayed the whole thing with TriNova stain guard and it beads water everywhere. Also when the blades are spinning, I noticed no rain getting on vents etc, so I surprised myself. Thanks and happy flying.

Boy you did get some rain. We just got ours early this morning, but not as much as what you got. Looked like the Mini Pro 4 did real well too. I wondered if it could be flown in rainy conditions. Did you get any leeks inside the airframe ? The puddle jumping looked fun to. Try to stay dry.

Im the only one that really got wet! No leaks, props keep it pretty dry. Did you buy the Mini 3 you were looking at yet? Thanks Tom.
