New Product Launch - Phantom Rain ! Lunar Landing Pad System :]

[VouilEz]

While Hand Landing/Hand Catch may not be for everyone, some of us prefer that method over any other and if done with some precaution and skills it's very safe. I'd guess I currently have over 500 hand landings (honestly probably more if I logged those details). Even back in the days of flying a Phantom for hundreds of flights a month we preferred hand catch probably 50-1 over landing. The only time I do NOT hand catch is when I'm teaching new operators how to fly/land.

If you aren't comfortable with hand catching or the wind is more than you can safely handle then land whichever way works best for you but knowing how to hand catch safely (and practice it) isn't a bad idea in the least. You should be able to perform many different flying (and landing) techniques just in case your default method isn't possible or safe . . .

i dont think you log something like hand catching into triple digits. It's intuitive learning,
like playing with balls, sports

I dont know why you all want to choose a csv juggle, when you can press stick down.
Landing Protection can afford to be off most of the time, or even better, turned on
if you need it

How much to ship to the UK?

Ok, seems like an alternative for some. For me It seems that you are inviting an issue by introducing another platform into the equation. You already have your hands on the TX now you have the TX and a platform and then are going to land on the platform. Three things 2 hands. Seems like if you get a little off center you could end up dropping your UAS or TX. I compliment the effort but I would rather just secure it with a hand catch.

Right on, A good majority of flyers wait for the day when the leaves dont blow and hand catch is easy peasy.

Add a little wind, rain, snow , slippery surface, low light or even a crowd and I will show you someone about to get a wee bit nervous if not stressing about hand catching there drone.

One thing I noticed about myself and others catching there drone in the hand is we look foolish to those around us. The Lunar Pad makes you look and feel confident , I like that .

I also like how transparent the Lunar case is to others rather than a closed and concealed case which causes doubt and and some to stress making a phone call.

This way if i go under a bridge or I am walking around some building , or creeping late at night everyone knows its a drone , I like that kind of Transparency.

I also really like how I am ready to fly with the pull of one strap, no fidgeting , unfolding, no wearing of the drone , just place it down and fly , I now call it the Lunar Launch..

So its more than an alternative its simply become the most satifying way to fly your Mavic Series Drone

We have it ready to ship for the Mavic 2 and Mavic Pro with the Phone controller or the Smart Controller.

I really like the fact that the Smart Controller can fit two ways, this way you can protect the Glass or you can be Search and Rescue Ready with the Sticks up.
I love that, Perfectly balanced for the easiest and safest hand catching possible. I most likely will make one in every color for myself. lolll

The Lunar Landing Pad is a Revolutionary new way of Hand Catching your drone.*

It's Safe / Fast and very Secure and even minimizes the risk of Hand Catching and launching your drone.

Hand Launching with the Lunar Pad is so effortless that you won't think twice about using it and helps to avoid Magnetic interference and Compass errors.

The Lunar Pad changes the time spent searching for a place to take off and land. Extreme weather / wind / snow / rain no longer such a big factor when landing or taking off.


*The Lunar Pad also provides a Fast and Secure method of carrying your drone*, controller and some extra batteries.

Unlike a normal case, the Lunar Pad/Case is Transparent and nothing is hidden to cause any suspicions of what you are carrying.

The Lunar pad uses 6 Custom Made Velcro straps that are self locking to secure what it carries, and utilized custom Cut outs to keep everything in place.

The self Locking feature keeping the straps locked in at all times because of their large size, they work well with gloves.

The Lunar Pad allows for a Quick Launch for an immediate take off, providing a really fast execution. Perfect for search and rescues.


*Calibration has never been easier - no more spinning around* - The Lunar pad allows you to spin the drone making for a perfect calibration .

They are Custom Built to the tools we use the most and the Lunar Pad completely enhances the Mavic Flying Experience.

My favorite feature is simply knowing that at a glance that I have everything I need for a flight.

Each Lunar Pad has the Ability to Carry 5 Batteries if the 2 Utility Slots are used.

How well does it work on a moving boat? With wind? rocking and rolling?

How well does it work on a moving boat? With wind? rocking and rolling?

Two big advantages on the Boat: One you have the extended reach, and the other is that you can focus more on catching the drone rather than trying to land it.

We fly in extreme weather conditions , and so snatching it out of the wind is really nice if you have all the sensor off , a must in the heavy wind.

One thing you notice after awhile of flying the drone in the wind and that is the drone seems to want to find a particular spot to hover in once you bring it down and being able to go to it is the key to an easy landing.

The truth is : there is no reason now to ever let your drone touch the ground avoiding much of the magnetic interference and on a boat you have a lot of that so hand launching becomes very important and lunar pad gives you and extended reach to do that. very very nice and easy to work with.

The other thing is once the drone lands you can secure it instantly.

Thank you for your interest.

Yes the Lunar Landing Pad does have some built in Safety Features.

The Non Skid Plate allows you to tilt the pad up to 45 degrees. with the drone still in place,
There front Strap also acts as a Catch Strap if you were to go further. Very cool

The angle that drone takes off at from a Hand Launch is also very safe as it takes off flying forward at a 25 Degree angle away from you. This slight tilt allows you a safe and secure hand Launch .

We made the Lunar Landing Pad for Safe and Secure flying without any unwanted Stress.




The Same shot with the Lunar Pad at an angle down: Will be posting a new video showing how that works , its way to hot to play with the camera this week,



Tilting the pad down even just a little provides a perfect hand Launch every time.

For those asking about the Cover Plates , there being made, I really like the idea we came up with.

Can you incorporate a take off and land button on the bottom of pad so you use one hand and one finger from that hand. I notice you have to think of what going on with the RC hand , it's kind of a balancing act between the pad and RC. So just to clarify this I'm very happy to see the product you developed and it works well. I envision holding the drone up on the launching pad and with my index finger I engage a safety button.then push the take off using one hand....Like I said it's just a vision.......

So a single flight is much easier because you have the controller prepared where as I am setting the drone up over and over again..
Regarding the button is a good idea as is getting rid of the swipe for an actual button, but its a safety feature for non accidental take offs.
