[QUOTE="rhettduke, post: 86079, member: 13647"] A lot of very FUNCTIONAL in real use solutions presented... And as much as I wanted to blow off the small hand landing pad as the youtube video started....I actually see a real place for it now.... I am going to look further at the gentlmans reviews....I like how he picked something Ive never seen and as simple as it was I believe most of us would use it and be able to justify the space it took up in your Drone "go Bag" I was called away and havent flown enough to see any difference in my landings except with the winds of late Im at least blaming that on my slightly more off target than normal landings. My ipad newnes is wearing off some and Im getting more at home with litchi on it....the settings menu is very different than on the android I was comfortable with.... I have noticed that I better take an extra moment to check settings.....at least once I believe precision landing had been turned off . I really know a check list is a must...[SIZE=5]i[/SIZE][SIZE=7]ts not if Im going to forget or take something for granted and have a negative experience....its a matter of when...... 1 ..its like carboard but water doesnt hurt it...... 2 I get "scraps" from a local sign shop for free Mostly white but other colors from time to time It can be painted weasily .....but simple duct or Gorilla Tape makes an fine x or H. I keep Black rolls that Im embaressed to say just what all Ive kept functioning a bit longer with it.... I even try to keep a pink roll....hey......its VISIBLEand helps me find stuff maybe that i didnt put back in its proper place easier :) And yes...when I use Black Plastic to land on.....Black tape just seems to be a waste for "marking" a symbal.....Pink wins there every time :)[/SIZE] [ATTACH type="full" alt="9418"]9418[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="9419"]9419[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="9420"]9420[/ATTACH] Nothing glamorous but I fly mostly out of a 10 acre field thats my "back yard" and I can leave something like that out an unmarked piece of the corplastin front...and to the rear and old plastic lid from a container......they come from the sign shop.....and are part of a plastic barrel some of the chemicals are shipped in.....all are in individual containers...the plastic outer barells with metal locking ring is just a "Hazmat" required extra layer in shipping...... The metal rings go to the scrap yard.......i dont see a good reason to to let them "help" compass calibration times. The barell can be turned upside down and for me makes a great table. Ugly but durable .... Good thing I dont live inside the city limits and have to worry what the neighbors thnk That said If we come up with a sure fire better design or size.....the chorplast can be cheaply screen printed and look professional if you actually have a real licensed tax paying profitable drone mapping or photography business Of note I thought of having a camera to record take off and landing.........have a extra phone and was /am willing to build it into a pad......in airplane mode...no wif bluetooth....NFC.....I got a compass error as soon as It went under the phantom......even a foot away interference registered .... Yea...i like to tinker [/QUOTE]
