Default Can you fly in winter?

I was wondering can you fly rc helicopters in the winter, when its like 32 degrees or less, just got into helicopters like 3 months ago and im having a blast, but I was wondering if you can fly in low temps, or is helicopters seasonal, because I might invest in a walkera 4#3 for indoor flying

its possible to fly in the cold. There are some precautions you can take for a better experience and if you search around you will find them.

as far as the walkera goes....I wouldn't waste the money. Get a sim for those times, much better way to spend your money and time when you can't stand the cold.
