Can you fly an FPV drone in the rain without frying your electronics? In this short video, I put my Moblite 7 with Walksnail to the test in real rainy conditions to see if silicone conformal coating actually protects against water damage. This experiment explores how well conformal coating holds up during wet flights and whether it's a reliable method for flying micro drones in bad weather. If you're into FPV flying, drone durability, or looking to protect your own build from moisture, this quick test gives you real-world insight into how far you can push your gear.
