A question for the experts on landing pads.

WIll 55 cm (21,65") do or is 75 cm (29,53") better. I am thinking of buying a PGYTECH one...

Thanks for your feedback :)
 
The bigger they are the easier to land on. Mine is home made and about 70cm and I would not want to go much smaller.
 
I've got the 75 cm one,and it's plenty big enough for the Mavic.
 
I have the PGYTECH one, and it's great. There are times when I would like it bigger, so I certainly wouldn't go smaller. My 2 cents...

I love this one. Folds easily and compact. Plenty of room. Put my smaller one away. I decided to go bigger because props were exposed to grass and weeds if I missed the pad CENTER by only a few inches. RTH isn't always a perfect match to take off position. I overrode RTH often, and even then when gusts or "nerves" were an issue I, my manual landings might be off.
For me, Bigger is better and folded size is definitely NOT an issue. My 2 cents.
