Strobe and holder placement

[JayTea26]

I want to get a white light strobe From Firehouse Technologies along with a strobe holder for my arm on my Mavic Air 2.
However, nothing seems to specifically say fits my drone.

Question: are the legs on the Mavic Air 2 the same size and shapes of let’s say the Mavic 2?

 

[old man mavic]

no the dimensions are different it will not be long before the correct ones for the MA2 are made

 

[JayTea26]

thank you.

I have Firehouse nav lights on my M2P. Can't use the clip-on mounts over my WrapGrade skin, so I use 3M dual-lock Velcro. Sticks anywhere on anything. Cheaper, too.

So basically it means that there aren't any arms available for the MA2 at the moment? I broke it's arm yesterday. The tip with the engine ripped off. Looking for a replacement but haven't found anything so far

I recently purchased 3 Firehouse Dual lights. 1 red, 1 green, 1 white. I went with the Dual because the ARC lights are a little big for the MA2, at least for the arms. I did find a suitable mount by Aerial Pixel. They are 3D printed with flexible plastic/rubber and clip well on both the front and back arms. They make mounts for the ARC and Dual Firehouse LEDs. I flew with them the first time yesterday; will take some pics and post when I can. Here's the link.

Hi, I’m about to purchase a pair of Arc V strobes for my M2P. Which 3M dual lock version do you recommend, as there are a few?
Thanks!

Interesting. What was the issue?
I have had no problems with the ARC XL mounts from @Aerial-Pixel and my @Wrapgrade skin during a year’s use with one on every prop arm and always removing them at the end of a flying day.

Thanks, I have considered them, but with shipping, two arm mounts (one for front, one for rear) seem to be a bit pricey.

Worth every penny, I assure you, both in utility and longevity, plus avoids indigent Velcro and glue.
but... each to their own.

Thanks, Thomas. I’ll give them some more consideration.

That was a simple google, your just going to have to do some legwork and find various sites that have the part you need then find the actual DJI part designation number...and then google for your area/location So just like this:
"BC.MA.SS000167.01" google that for your area

As to the OP...I have always used a clear velcro as described above, gives you much more diversity as to where to mount the strobe and doesn't score your arms and such for the "Skin" gang. If your like a few / most of us with multiple aircraft it is the easiest and convenient way to swap out your Strobes. Maybe not as aesthetically pleasing, but it's freak'n flying for goodness sake...who can see it???

The problem with Velcro and 3m tape is that you are assuming that you won’t crash and cause the light to be dislodged and lost..forever. I’ve had it happen using both methods. If you can afford the mounts, I would highly recommend getting them.

I’ve been convinced. I’ll spring for the AP mounts! Thanks all, and happy new year!
