yep when we was younger we was flying all the winter and -20 was not unusual in this days a good airfiled was not common in Norway so a frozen lake was a good choice .

I saw a video from a guy in that area that had 2 1.20 size engines on an ice sled pulling him across one of those lakes. I thought it was neat.

Crazy people...
I fly indoor when the ground is white and temps are below -5... In other words - practically all winter!
Tried flying outdoors once in -12C. My Hitec servos wouldn't have any of it and just stopped working. RIP to that plane!

God Jul to all of you as well!
