I have to do a commercial survey job for a friend with my Mini 2. It will be flying over a harbour and the approaches and at times will be up to 500 Metres away which is at the limit of line of sight. So I have got 2 of those incredibly bright Flytron Cree LED’s to attach to the drone. Most people s…

Thanks for all of the helpful suggestions. After reading all the advice I have decided to go with mounting on the rear legs facing down.

As @milkmanchris has said, hand launch/catch Mini 2

I have one underneath and two rear-facing [Flying Christmas Tree]
