Does anyone have any experience in using one of these landing pads and placing the included fluorescent stickers on to the pad?
I'm interested in knowing if these stickers remain stuck to the pad, even after time when folding and unfolding them?
If they do super, if not what did you do about it if anything?
Also, I'm interested in learning any other tidbits about using one of these items.
Thank You

There are a number of third party videos you can view to watch on review of this. Here is one by the company itself:

Yes thank you I've see all of these
My question was primarily focused on using the fluorescent stickers and their longevity...if you have any data on that I would like to know, please.

not really, Ive had one for just over a week, and Ive only used it once yesterday, when I did I noticed one of the stickers had partially become unstuck, so I can't see them lasting.

ah, unfortunately just as I suspected.  So my next thought would be if you could use a strong glue if that would help keep them on there.  Of course it would have to be a glue that does not negatively impact plastics/nylon.

Thank you very much...it is a nice idea but I didn't think it was more than a short term workable action.  Comes down to more hype than reality and really only a one time good deal.

Take care and let us know if you get more info from your use and observations on this topic

Own one of these PGYTECH Helipads and they're superb ! I still have those reflective stickers too but also haven't figured out what the heck to do with them.

At this point it's obvious that those stickers are a good idea but just not practical, not as designed.  I'd prefer they could be made more of a permanent feature, as it stands now they are very temporary.

Same here, I'd like to use them but not as they are now.
For now, I'm hanging on to mine waiting to see if I can come up with a way to use them that wont be so temporary.

Thought about using them on the copter but quickly tossed the idea. They'll probably just peel off with time so not so permanently.

Agreed, and then you'll be left with sticky residue on the bird.

The stickers do not stay on.  I applied them exactly as shown in the video and they immediately started peeling off. I used it at the beach and sand got in the exposed adhesive. I emailed PGYTECH  for replacement stickers thinking it would be a simple request but they referred me back to the amazon reseller who did not pack the back or have extra stickers.  PGYTECH failed the customer service test, but It’s a good landing pad, for the price, just plan on buying reflective stickers or tape.

Just received my Landing Pad Pro with the reflective stickers, which I am not going to apply as they appear completely unnecessary, as well as being cut to a different radius than the graphics on the pad itself. They don't match the curve of the circle around the "H" at all, making them unattractive as well as useless.

Concur
Also, they will not stay attached for very long, making them further unnecessary

I think this is a long ago forgotten topic, but on mine I used them on the outer corners so they don’t get bent when folding and they seem to be working just fine.
