Looking to either make or buy a landing pad for my P3P.  Can't find very many places that have them on the internet.  What does everyone have?

I use a backpack that my buddy carries his drone in.  take off from there, hand catch every time.  Helps keep dust off my camera.    

But, if you do want to buy one, UAVbits.net has a couple different models.  some are very neat!

Yeah they have some pretty cool ones.  I kind of wanted one without holes though.

I wanted something that was heavy enough that the quadcopter wouldn't blow it around, but portable enough that I could take it with me on any trips.

I used a kitchen floormat (the soft/rubbery type) and then spray painted the 'H' and outline.   I can roll this up and then use a strap to keep it rolled up and also attach it to a backpack:

A 4-square foot (2 feet by 2 feet) piece of plywood. Didn't even bother to paint it - it doesn't stay on the ground very long anyway.

I used a bit of ply wood and put some rubber feet on it so it would stabilize better off the ground and then stuck a sheet of corflute you no the stuff the use for signs https://www.google.com/search?q= ... A&biw=1920&bih=1106 I stuck it to the plywood for a a smooth landing and of course masked off and sprayed a fluro pink H so it can been seen easy from height.

Yeah I thought about making something. As much as this thing costs I figured they would have a bunch of different types of landing pads.

I use a simple DIY disk cut out of rigid foam (about 37 cm in diameter). It's waterproof, light (but heavy enough to stay in place in the wind), and clips on to my backpack.
