I am thinking of painting my Mavic Mini but, Does anybody know if the paint can affect the signal reception?
It probably depends on the kind of paint. What do we need to avoid?
 
I have skins (decorative decals) on my M2P, it doesn't seem to affect signal reception. However, I have not flown much since putting them on. I have not heard of anybody having signal reception affected by skins, which would probably have a similar effect as paint, if any.
 
as long at the skins or paint are not metallic like foil
Exact.
They must not contain metallic particles, be paintings that peel off with heat or cold.
Here we have vinyls that comply with the regulations and with these specifications and also prevent the attack of birds of prey.
 
Interesting. Thank you for the info.
 
Lead based paint, for example, would probably cause problems. I don't even know if they make it anymore.
