BIRD REPELLENT FOR DRONES

I was flying the other day and my friend pointed out to me the seagulls that started diving across the nose of my bird. I immediately brought it down cuz i was flying over water and left. I was thinking the same thing. maybe a mirrored finish vinyl wrap? or a sonar like the one dogs dont like?

I still say stainless steel sharpened props are the best answer to birds !!!
 
I want a speaker mounted on my Mavic. Hawk was screaming at my drone so loud I landed and he flew between me and the Mavic at 60 mph. I felt the wind coming off his wings.

I think I'll be making one. I'm really interested in this too. I was thinking a remotely activated one might be better so that you don't waste speakers battery?
 
i think i'll try using reflective vinyl so the sticky part is done and the is no metal in it..
 
Hmmm, I'll be very interested in this too... We have lots of kites where I live and those things are constantly hovering... Will also look into reflective material
 
Since having this skin on the birds seem "less" interested,or maybe its the area/in my head but i went with full chrome wrap for the same reason people use cd's etc to scare off birds.
Crappy phone pic but you get the gist.

I was told by a reputable source that this Bird Scare Tape scares the heck out of birds and they avoid the area you place it in. It works by attacking the bird's senses causing the bird to be frightened away. My thoughts are if we place a piece of this on the sides and top of the Mavic it would scare the birds away.
I ordered a roll on Amazon and I'm going to place 3 pieces on my Mavic.
Another added benefit is it would make the Mavic far more visible being it is moving in the sky. I know this is highly visible because it looks like a CD surface and you can see those things in a ditch driving down the freeway at 80 MPH.

Order it Here.

You mite check with DJI and see if it would cause problems with the drone
 
Has anyone had a answer as to whether or not this reflective tape will mess up the compass system as yet..
 
Bird strike is the main reason I wrapped my MP...making it less grey and bird coloured - also easier to find if it goes down in a field / tree etc. I went with red (natures warning sign?) with some comedy eyes and a big toothy grin! Well at least if I can't scare the birds off I can scare small children instead [emoji41]

Is that sticky tape? Has anyone found any anti bird tape that has a sticky side?
