The Hoodman HDLP3 Drone Landing Pad is a wonderful accessory investment for your DJI Phantom and smaller RC Quadcopter adventure video endeavors. A Hoodman launch pad will keep your lens clean throughout takeoff and landing. Nothing worse than mowing the lawn with your rotors. Your launch pad will protect your rotors from tall grass and pebble strikes. Your first sandy beach takeoff and landing will pull sand through your motor bearings and blast your lens and gimbal with sand. Deploy the Hoodman landing/launch pad in seconds as it springs out of its compact 13 inch carry bag. No longer do you need to carry a hammer and stakes to keep your pad in place; Hoodman launch pads have weighted perimeters and stay put on the windiest of days. Safely and clearly mark your next takeoff and landing area with a Hoodman launch pad. Hoodman has been a trusted name in rugged, drone, camera and video accessories for over 30 years and offers a 1 year warranty: free from manufacturing defects.
