Can I fly my aerohawk outside all year around?

RE: Can I fly my aerohawk outside all year around?
When I was flying my planks with NiCad batteries, you could fly in temps well below freezing. The motors and electronics do not much care. I DID receive much shorter flight times, until I started to insulate the batteries. Apparently, the loose capacity when cold. I kept spares in my shirt pocket inside my jacket and other layers, and then put them in the plane with a foam wrapper to keep them warm.
I have no idea how LiPos behave in cold temps.

Only thing to watch out for is when bringin it back into the heat,, condense might kill of your board if you start operating it.
