The DJI FPV is rated for wind up to 49 km/h (13.6 m/s · 30 mph · 26 kn), which is Beaufort 6 — Strong breeze, and for temperatures from -10 °C to 40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F). It positions itself with GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo.

When is it safe to fly the DJI FPV?
Drone Weather Forecast compares every hour of the forecast with these limits and gives one colour:
- Green — wind and gusts up to 44 km/h (90 % of the limit).
- Yellow — between 44 and 49 km/h: fly with caution, a gust can push the drone past its limit.
- Red — above 49 km/h, or rain, low visibility, too few satellites or a KP index above 4.
Gusts are judged against the same limit as the average wind, and the wind at your flying height is usually stronger than at ground level. The Pro wind profile shows the forecast from 10 m up to 4,200 m.

Cold and heat
The DJI FPV is rated down to -10 °C. Batteries deliver less energy in the cold: keep them warm until take-off and expect shorter flights below about 10 °C.

GPS and satellites
The DJI FPV uses GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo. For your position, Drone Weather Forecast counts the visible satellites of these systems and warns when fewer than 9 are locked; a KP index above 4 (geomagnetic storm) can also disturb GPS and the compass.

Frequently asked questions
How much wind can the DJI FPV handle?
Up to 49 km/h (13.6 m/s, 30 mph), Beaufort 6. Above that it may not hold its position or fly back against the wind. Drone Weather Forecast starts warning at 44 km/h.
Can the DJI FPV fly in 35 km/h wind?
Yes. 35 km/h is below its 49 km/h limit and below the 44 km/h caution threshold, so the app shows green — as long as the gusts also stay below 44 km/h.
Can the DJI FPV fly in the rain?
Drone Weather Forecast treats rain above your precipitation limit as a no-fly condition for every model. Check the DJI FPV manual for its water resistance before flying in wet weather.
What is the minimum temperature for the DJI FPV?
-10 °C (14 °F); the maximum is 40 °C (104 °F).
→ Can you fly a drone in the rain?
Limits from the manufacturer specifications, as set in the app's drone presets. Always follow your drone manual and local aviation rules.
