Drone DX in the rain

Will the board get damaged in the rain? Will anything happen if my drone gets wet from playing??

Along as you use your best judgment and not submerge the marker. If it's raining you will be fine just after day of play open grips to.dry out any water that may have got inside the grips.

I played 3 tournaments in the rain with my drone. Not a single issue.

I had never heard of this so I googled...looks pretty cool!

I've played plenty of times in rain with different iterations of MD guns and never had a problem. I always allow them to air out when I get home as shootnpoo suggested and they've been fine. This same rule applies to any electro.
