Where do you mount Marco Polo gps tracker?

[paulatkin73]

Hi, i cannot decide where to put it. I would prefer to mount it permanently, but, in a way that would not obstruct portability and transportation of it when folded down. I have Bondic, so it will weld it to the body fine, but, where...
Where did you put yours?

You can find a bunch of commonly used mounting locations here.

I was more interested to hear from people here than to look at google showing 3d printed holders i absolutely have no interest in seeing...

Those photos show nearly every possible location a Macro Polo tracker can be attached to a Mavic. Maybe just ignore the photos of the 3D mounts if that's not what you want?

If digging through threads is more to your liking, you can find lots of existing threads in these search results.

Use velcro or 3m lock velcro and mount it on your battery no interference.

When I get my new MAVIC 2 I am going to try this mount. Cut or remove somehow the bolt.

Velcro on the side

I use one of @msinger 3D printed holders on the rear legs. I wanted to be absolutely certain the Marco Polo Ultralight stayed with the AC. Reading a couple of threads where the tracker separated from the AC I chose to eliminate that possibility.

Does the arm fold back for storage or do you have to remove the holder each time. THANKS

That one is from @Aerial-Pixel.

got mine on the front arm, on the outside so arm can still be folded and can also plug the charger into it, added a bit of tape around the tracker as I didn't trust just Velcro

@THE WOMBLE

Apologies to both @Aerial-Pixel and @msinger for my earlier gaffe.
With Aerial-Pixels mount on the rear arm, the arm will not fold against the body without flexing / spreading the rear arms a skosh. If I spread the rear arms a bit I could fold it against the body but I choose not to. I have installed and removed it many many times (approximately a hundred or so) and it shows NO signs of fatigue.

I personally would not attach an electronic transmitter on the antenna legs. It might be OK but I choose not to.

Where exactly are the Mavic 2 antenna(s)?

@Thunderdrones will know exactly, I know approximately and would rather not lead you astray.
