How much was it? And can you give me a link for the light?

I am thinking firehouse but they are too expensive and I don't fly much in dark.

It depends on what you want achive and how you fly. If you want your drone to be visible for other ACs then the top is a right place. However, if you want to make the drone be visible maily for you, put it on a battery door (you'll see "stop lights")  or under one of the arms (so when it's high above you'll see Mini from the ground).

Thank you. I will take a. Look at it.

I am hesitant on adding anything to the device but I think a strobe is handy to have in some situations.

Try the Flytron cree strobe, I just bought one, very bright, 2hrs plus runtime.

I have mine in the same location and I get 20 plus sats most every flight. On cloudy days between 15 to 20 . I also have a strobe on the leg of the drone to help with orientation

So most of us can agree the anti-collision light or strobe should be placed on top of the drone.. what is the best lightweight flat strobe you can velcro to the bottom of a DJI mini 2? (without interfering with the landing)
