Strobes

[FishinJoe]

I an a drone noob but am wanting to get some strobes for my mini. Does anyone have any recommendations as to which strobes/mounts to get?

I'm using the Firehouse Technology lights for my Mavic Mini and they have worked well for me. Check out the link below and you'll find a belly mount that clips on and a top mount that uses Velcro.

Definitely a bit brighter than the firehouse.

Something new. (To me, anyway.)

Ordered these. Seems to be pretty bright from what I saw on a post. https://www.amazon.com/%E3%80%90Upgraded%E3%80%91-Collision-Multirotor-Quadcopter-Phantom/dp/B07VP2YWRJ

I use two small strobe lights for my mini
It can be used as a strobe light or light for night time. I will try to get a photo soon when I get back home [emoji537]

Agreed. The on/off switch is a nice addition too.

How are you liking the downward mount? Would you say the lights are less/more visible than your front/rear facing lights?

I bought " Strobon UAV Strobe Cree "strobes from Carolina Dronz for my son. He LOVES them. Very Bright. A bit cheaper than the strobes I bought for myself.

So far the downward mount has performed great. It attaches firmly with no play, doesn't block the battery switch or vents and the ARC II LED lights provide more than enough light to illuminate the path of a Mavic Mini. Combined with the forward facing lights, more than adequate for flying low to the ground at night and carefully indoors with active sensors. Really couldn't imagine needing much more light than provided since I assume most folks won't risk flying the mini but a few hundred yards away at night. Having said that, they are the same ARC II lights I utilize on the Mavic Zoom and I've never had a problem locating the aircraft in extremely bright sunlight from distances greater than 1000 feet. At night they are incredibly bright...even the red and green lights that are facing aft. Something else worthy of note, the one problem I had with a failed strobe light was resolved within a few days with a singe email to Firehouse with no questions asked. Couldn't be happier with the customer support and they are the only lights I'll use going forward.

I’m using firehouse tech arc 2. Just look for a good mount. Keep safe and enjoy
