Sunshade for RC2

[Rchawks]

I have one for my RC1 has anyone bought one for their RC2 and what did you think of the purchase? I like the extra protection of having it covered and protected on a lanyard while setting up. I see a few models with an extra overlap. I pretty much know with this setup it might not fit in the Bag that came with the combo for my Air 3S.

I bought one for my RC2 from Amazon: SunShield
Pros: It works OK, Has bump-outs so you can leave the control knobs in place, Price (on sale now, under $13 US), protects the screen when closed.
Cons: If you use a foam storage case, you may need to trim the foam to get it to fit properly.

I wish they made one for the RC Pro!

I picked up one from startrc on Amazon on black Friday sale .I like how it rachets to whatever position you put it in and no interference with finger movement.I did have to trima little foam for it to fit in hardcase.

Not having to installed the sticks are a plus in my book and the reason I bought it for my RC then I realized the advantage this provides with protection for the Screen and strap for carrying effortlessly. In the winter cold it would be very easy to scratch the surface of the display on a zipper for coats and such.

I purchased this one as well (FPVtosky )only a little different package that came with a well made lanyard and screen protectors.

Happy with the purchase thus far.

How does it attach to rc

It has a clip that runs between the antennas and hooks in to the indents on the backside.

My only complaint with the SkyShade is that ambient light of a sunny day comes from multiple angles - not just directly. Doesn't make sense to use it during midday as the sun is directly above you anyways and there's no way to fight that except for using a hood. I like that it covers the control levers and those don't have to removed during storage. And the flap is good for protecting the screen in storage (especially if you're not using a dedicated foam case.

Thanks for your answer. I’m getting one if nothing else at least for protection
