I'm thinking about putting a skin on my Mavic Pro.
Being 70+, I'm concerned on how difficult it is too do.
Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated.
This is what I have in mind.
Thanks.
Depends on how crazy you're attempting to go. You can either do a sticker skin like the video below shows or you can try and paint it. Painting would be the more difficult route but if you've got the patience and time then in my opinion it would look better. Although the sticker skins they sell are fairly impressive.

After installing mine, I think the most difficult part are the batteries and the two front lateral stickers (because they are curvy). All other ones just require minor alignment by any side.

agreed! I just printed the skin and tried the other day, the batteries were the only part I messed up on. I actually removed the stickers re printed them and still couldn't get them perfect.
I didn't want to skin the entire thing so i just did the body. Plus I was running out of patience doing it anyway!

I order two sets of the orange skins fro China. They were cheap enough... in case I make a mistake applying.
Will post pictures when finished.
Not too successful skinning the Mavic.
I guess I don't have the patience.
I'll leave it without the skin for now.
