Why You Should Wrap Your Drone | V.L.O.S Regulations

In this video I discuss drone wraps (skins) and how they can help improve your visual line of sight. I discuss and demonstrate a 50/50 wrap to help accommodate for the new UK regulations. Showcasing drones such as the DJI Mini 2, Mavic 2 pro and Mavic Air 2s. Check out the video and let us know if you want a custom drone skin today.

I’ve never used a drone wrap. The dual colour looked like a smart solution to VLOS rules. Currently I use white and green strobes to indicate orientation on the Mavic Pro.
Nice video. Thanks for sharing.

They were not designed for VLOS . In the US rules, if you are looking at your phone/screen you are not keeping your drone in VLOS at all times as the rule implies and neither can a spotter/observer who is co located with you who is suppose to scan the skies AND keep your drone in VLOS every second of that flight. The rules are nonsense and can NOT bed followed as currently written and the regulators know it .
The Wrap idea is a good one and would help, But again as the rules are written, we break them every time we leave the ground even while trying to follow them

How can I get the yellow and orange skin for DJI mini 4 pro?

[Baleur]

I mean or just add a strobe light that's visible for 5km.
2:40 also, i get you saying this for the video to be "on the record", but lets be real.
No cops got time to turn on the sirens to go out and weigh every Mini 3 that is flying without visible accessories.
You're not going to jail if its 5 grams over, as long as you're not flying like an inconsiderate fool, aint nobody weighing it.

I airbrushed my drone with Fluorescent Airbrush Paint. less weight added and cheaper than decals. Why did DJI make the drone the same colour as the UK grey sky anyway ? all it does it make it difficult to see.

The orientation aspect is not law just guidance based on the CAA's interpretation of the law. However if you were involved in an incident and did not know the orientation at the time it could be used against you. The legal definition is in Regulation (EU) 2019/947 regards VLOS.

Not needed for sub250s in canada, VLOS is for that class just a guideline, should is not must.

will you be doing a 50 50 for the M30T?
