I was thinking about putting some reflective tape on my Mavic to make it easier to view when flying at a distance during the day. The angle of the sun will be a factor in the effectiveness of the tape. I like this idea as it will not alter the takeoff weight while at the same time can be cut to be esthetically pleasing like racing hash marks on the Mavic Enterprise. In additions it should have no impact on weight and reduce flight time.
Does anyone have experience with using something non-metallic to create better visibility. I looked at some skins but nixed the idea due to heat dissipation.
This was kind of what I was thinking. It would definitely have to be non-metallic.
