This is the second drone skin I have bought but my first custom as it is for the corporate drone I fly. I named it, the skin, "Tin Man" after the Stealth movie drone who's call sign was Tin Man...I know...I am weird...I thought it resembled the color and similar plated look.

I took the design a step further and put some preflight checklist stuff on the remote and some other cautionary warnings on the hull (like you would do on a real aircraft).

Now, now...no need for name calling...LOL

If I did that I would have to make a banner to hang on the side of my vehicle...with big bold letters so that everyone could see it. My vest would be bold enough.

Maybe someone should develop Drone banners (like plans used to tow behind them). Then I could have the whole "Beware of Pilot" nice and big.

Thank you for the "nice job" BTW

How true. We all need a colourful banner, for life. Haha

That is too funny...so much wrong with that image. Old drones...I don't think they are all DJI...imagining four pilots trying to fly in tandem without crashing while dragging two banners.

Thanks...I needed the laugh

Spare no expense for the cause.

That’s only a mediocre priced drone anyways.

Gotta represent. Haha

Aloha Kenny,

     Nice job.  I like the rivets.  Good how the skin absorbed the curved surface well.

Aloha and Drone On!

Thanks. Yeah the decal is pretty elastic and because it comes in pieces it molds pretty well to the smooth curved surfaces.

Aloha Kenny,

     Nice job.  I like the rivets.  Good how the skin absorbed the curved surface well.

The rivets were a must have to pull off the design. I had initially thought about like WWII designs like the OD green with the shark teeth but those work because they are planes with an obvious front...the P4P (most Phantoms) don't have an obvious front...so I gave the idea up.

Aloha Kenny,

     Yeah, the shark teeth would not work out so well but there are other ideas that will come to you.  I like the "Wood".  As you use them more and more, something will come to you.

Aloha and Drone On!

Thanks. Yeah...I am still playing with other ideas in my head. It was a nice little distraction from my day-to-day. If I come up with something else I will share. Aloha
