Does what it should

Soon after getting my drone, it quickly became apparent that there's not always a flat, clear place to launch everywhere. So I picked up this landing pad. There's not much to say about it. It works as expected. Put it down in the grass, and you don't have to worry about your blades mulching up the grass on take-off and landing. Also works great on bare ground to keep dirt, dust, sand and debris from getting kicked up into your prop motors and gimbal. About the only reason I didn't give it five stars is the stakes. Now I haven't had to use them yet. However, from experience with other plastic stakes, I know they can be hard to push into hard, dry ground. In my opinion, some metal stakes would be better suited for that. However, it wouldn't cost much to pick up some in the store, and just add them to the bag. Also, it can be tricky at times to fold up (and I've used similar sized photographic diffusers, which work the same). But with a little practice, it gets easier.

Pros
  • Just as expected and described. Good quality!
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in hot weather
