What do you think… too much reflective tape?

It looks like a dad’s drone :joy:

Try wrapping the body instead of the arms. I was worried the tape on the arms would come loose. Here’s how mine looks: link

It’s your drone, do what you want!

Nah, throw a few more red stickers on there for good measure!

How much is ‘too excessive’ anyway?

Bird protection? Why does that work? Tell me more!

Bright colors like red tend to scare birds off. Animals often avoid bright colors in nature because they think it means danger or poison. The reflections from the tape confuse them too.

@Drew
Wow, crazy to think birds associate the tape with poison!

Why do you need reflective tape? Is it a law in your country or something?

Nope, not a law. I just use it to keep birds away and make it look cool. Trying to make sure it doesn’t end up looking ugly with too much tape though.

Maybe just a little bit too much tape.

No matter what you do, it’s going to end up on a UFO sightings forum :joy:

Wouldn’t birds be more attracted to the shiny tape?

Might as well throw some spikes on there while you’re at it!
