Thanks for all the help. I wrote the people at cypress with this question and here is their response: "according to the engineering team in Germany: "It is O.K. for the unit to experience this condition as a storage, (with CYPRES switched off). If there is sufficient time to warm up before working mode, there is no concern."

No, I am a military pilot and the jet I fly has an external baggage pod that is not pressurized or heated. I will be doing a lot of cross country training flights over the next year and would like to bring my rig around with me.

I was wondering if there was anything to be concerned about when packing a rig in an unpressurized, non climate controlled baggage compartment? Would the prolonged (few hours) exposure to low temperatures (up to negative 50 outside air temp) be something to worry about? Also, my rig has a cypress II

Thank you all for the great advice and input. It really helps to be able to get straighforward expertise. In regards to buying a new container... I am in the military and mirage gives a pretty good discount for us so I think it makes sense for me personally

I am a new jumper and buying my first rig. I was just wondering if the hip ring option is worth the extra 300 dollars that mirage charges for it?
