I skinned the frog.

[Hidden]

My drone has shed it's skin, and now is a fully mature Orange Poison Dart Frog. I painted the grey areas between the skin, and the front where the skin did not cover, painted the gear as well, not the same color, but better than black. No matter, the only one who will see my Drone in me. LOL This skin is called Solar Storm, iStyles and Decal Girl have the skin. iStyles is a few dollars cheaper than DG.

Good looking job ?. Does it standout any better against the sky? Regards

Thanks! I have not been able to fly yet, thunderstorms in the area with hail. It's been stormy all week here.

Look forward to your report. I’ve tried everything but skinning trying to keep track of my drones in the air. I guess it’s an age thing.

Will do! I purchased the under body landing gear this morning. One of the rear legs after folding about three times lost its stop, so it folds both ways now. I got the Tomat under body landing gear this time.
I may get a chance to fly today, but I have to cut my weeds before they get much taller, that is if the ground has dried enough.

Have my Mavic Air 1 wrapped in same skin.
I did my Air2S in the the Decal Girl Black Woodgrain

I added an orange wrap to my Air 2 and it helps, but the best addition for me was the strobes on front and rear legs. Combination of both really helps keeping track of it.

The pattern is different, but the colors are close. Where does the black come in?

I agree, the orange will help, but I don't think you can beat having strobes. My strobes will be here Monday and Tuesday. There will be UFO sightings by the local Alabama UFO group on Wednesday. LOL

I wrapped my other drone Air2S with the the Bkack wood grain pattern. I will send photos when I get home.

I looked it up on iStyles, perfect color if you're in the desert for visibility, or going stealthy to spy on the neighbor's dog.

I wrapped my mini 2 in fluorescent orange and it added ~200’ to my max VLOS

I just did a test flight with it for the first time in a completely clear sky and it started to become difficult to see at 320m (~1050’)

Sorry for the delay in responding. I use strobes from Firehouse. They have several versions and strobe colors.

Flew the drone around. The orange helps at low altitude, and upto around 150-200 away. Any further looks dark.

That is exactly what I did. Neon orange wrap from DecalGirl and 4 Arc V strobes. Sometimes I will put the red and green strobes on the rear to assist with the orientation of the drone.
