Add more visibility to your Drone

[Safetything]

Some people often talked about using reflective materials on drone to scare away birds, which will most probably fail. However, a good point mentioned by some guy is, "The highly reflective material might make finding a downed drone a little easier in the dark, after a bird attack!" and I agree.

If you already have or will buy reflective tape, check google and search something like: top reflective tape check tool .

From google's search results, you will find a website with a free tool checking out useful information on the reflective tape and avoid wasting money.
It is actually an online free tool to check brightness, outdoor lifetime and many tips for reflective tapes.

I had one drone buried so deep in the brush, no amount of "reflective" tape or strobe (in the daytime) would reveal its location. You needed a machete or a long stick but now I use an audible beeper (loud) from ViFly. I can imagine the same goes for a drone stuck high up in a tree.

Yes, you are right, reflective tape or strobe does not work out in daytime, will work in the dark. As reflective material is very light, sticking to the drone is easy and will work anyway in the dark or night time for many years if got the right type of reflective tape. I saw many people use black or similar least bright ones or short term reflective, which should be avoided (pay the same but get the least brightness and lasts short time). Is the audible beeper easy to be broken when falls or in rain...
