Clips for Flytron Cree strobes - Mavic 2 - Mini 2 - Air 2

Mike, just PM’d you.

I use an MP2 currently with either 4 or 6 Strobon’s on. Either side of the rear legs & then a red/green on the side if I go for overkill on a bright day. I use them as a ‘just in case’ the military buzz by for max visibility. I was thinking if you did a V shaped option with a strobe on either side of the V but thinking if they’d be visible to aircraft?
What’s your thoughts Andrew?

It’s not a problem designing one Mark but realistically speaking, do many people go out with 4 or 6 strobes? I don’t know for sure but I would have thought there’s little chance of a jet or chopper pilot seeing a drone, even with strobes on. Does anyone know?
Interestingly, we had 2 Apaches fly over our garden yesterday, they looked very low but I’m guessing they were probably at 500’.

Ive had an Airprox with an Airbus A400M & tbh yes apparently they were aware of me via the strobes. I received a very memorable phone call from RAF Brize Norton complimenting the fact I was using them & thanking me for the Airprox report :man_shrugging:
I was only asking as im using 3M dual-lock & looks a bit amateurish lol just interested in your thought as to if you think a dual aspect V shaped one would be practical

That’s really good to know. Well done.
Sent you P.M.

Just a quick note. Thanks to a request from @MTLakes, I’m now doing a V section clip that takes two strobes, one forwards and one backwards. So you can fit 4 on the rear arms of a Mavic 2.

Any chance of getting this for the mini 2?

Chris, I wasn’t planning on it, as a pair with 4 strobes would put the take-off weight over 250g and I wouldn’t be comfortable with only on one side.

These look great Andrew, do they fit the Mavic 2 Pro?

Yes they do. I’ve a M2Zm which is what Andrews designed for me - well impressed.

They do indeed John. But it’s a bit early for Christmas decorations! :rofl: :rofl:

@Grazuncle see first post here.

Is this what you were looking for?

Thanks for posting that.

I’m looking for the ones that attach to the belly of the Mini 2

I found a YT video and it took me to Facebook!. I had to join just to ask the person about them

eBay is only hope for that if I remember right, I’ll try find the link the ones I ordered

Thanks for that.

I could print one from a Thingyverse STL but the one shown in the YT video was a high quality/finish and if ABS rather than PLA, will be better.
