A new drone was made to brave the elements. The Matrice 200 industrial drone by DJI is made to inspect power lines and help with search and rescue. It’s IP43 rated, meaning it can handle some rain without shorting. The batteries warm themselves so their performance doesn’t suffer in cold weather. The drone can fly for a max of 4.3 miles or 38 minutes, and can carry 4.4 pounds of gear.
