17g too much to add on Mini 2

[Macca9091]

Adding Remote ID module + strobe, will 17g effect perf?

Although it’s under the reg weight threshold, I’ve registered and picked up a 14g remote ID module. And as this is my first drone, I got a 4g Firehouse strobe to aid in keeping line of sight.

Will 17g of added weight have any significant effect on performance, e.g., flight time, speed, maneuverability?

Should these both live as close to center on the drone as possible (top and bottom)?

Cheers!

Adding Remote ID module + strobe, will 17g effect perf?

I fly the mini 2 with a Ruko R111 Remote ID Module tahth weighs 14-grams. It puts the little bird over 250-grams, but I use it under my part 107 so that makes no difference... I have not noted any difference in performance. I am sure the Ruko has a bit of wind resistance and affects the top speed and the added wight drains a bit more off the battery, but like I wrote, none noted.

I just bought the Ruko R111 Remote ID Module, here is my first impression!

No doubt. Not super concerned about pro-level performance, as I am not one. I when I find myself living in Sport mode, I’ll upgrade to something with an avoidance system! TY!

I've flown the Mini 2 with 3 FH ArcV strobes attached to the legs and I didn't notice anything unusual.

Your Drone will have No problem with it. Also Don't worry about trying to Balance it on. The Drone will take care of that.
Just place it on the Drone in a way that it will not interfere with its electronics in flight.
