For the DJI Mini 2, the recommended operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Flying outside of this temperature range, especially in lower temperatures, can lead to reduced battery performance and potentially affect the drone's functionality. Since you're in northern Minnesota, where temperatures can drop significantly below freezing, it's important to take extra precautions if you plan to fly in cold weather:

- Keep the drone and its batteries warm before flight, possibly by storing them inside your jacket or using hand warmers in a carrying case (without direct contact to avoid overheating).
- Expect reduced battery life in cold conditions and monitor the battery status closely during flight.
- Let the drone hover for a minute or two after takeoff to allow the battery to warm up from its initial use.
- Be aware of increased power demands on the drone's battery in cold weather, which can lead to unexpected power drops.

While the DJI Mini 2 might technically operate in temperatures below 0°C, doing so is beyond the manufacturer's recommendations and increases the risk of issues or damage. Always prioritize safety and the longevity of your drone when deciding to fly in extreme conditions.

If the temperature drops to negative if you fly, a drone with a camera is not clear, also, it is not good to catch a picture or video.
