Crafted from rugged 600 denier orange polyester, it features a patented 19-pound zinc-coated weighted perimeter cable that secures the pad without stakes. Designed for quick setup and teardown, it collapses to a third of its deployed size and protects your drone’s rotors and camera from dirt and debris. Its urethane-coated bottom resists moisture, ensuring durability and easy maintenance in the field. ## Description Buy Hoodman 8 Foot Weighted UAV Drone Landing Pad fits Matrice 350, Freefly Alta, Sony Airpeak S1, Durable, No Stakes Required, collapses to 1/3 of deployed size: Aircraft Landing Gear - desertcart.com ✓ FREE DELIVERY possible on eligible purchases Review: “Weighted” in name only. Slides, rolls, and fights you on fold-up - Used with a DJI Matrice 30T over several flights (short grass and asphalt, ~8–12 mph wind). The pad wouldn’t stay put. Despite the “no stakes required” claim, it slid and even rolled when rotor wash hit; I had to add sandbags just to keep it in place. The bright surface confused downward sensors and caused hesitant/aborted auto-lands until I moved off the pad. Durability was disappointing: rim scuffed on day one and stitching showed early fuzz. Folding is a chore... spring ring snaps back, pinched my fingers, and the carry bag feels undersized with a sticky zipper. “Collapses to 1/3” sounds nice, but it’s still a bulky coil that’s annoying to pack. For an 8-foot pad, stability is the entire point, and this misses it badly. Returned the same day. I wouldn't use this landing pad even if it was free, let alone $430, which is absolute price gouging. I understand you're from LA, but that does not entitle you to skyrocket your price 10,000%, which is absolutely insane. Review: Scam - 400 dollars for a pretend helipad and you understand why this has zero reviews ## Features - Easy set up. Rugged 600 denier orange polyester landing pad springs into shape when released from 27 inch carry bag - No stakes required. 19 pound weighted zinc coated patented perimeter cable keeps landing pad in place throughout takeoff and landing - Keeps drone clean. Takeoff and landing drone thrust can sand blast camera lens, motor bearings and rotors - Protects rotors. Tall grass and pebble strikes are eliminated - Quick clean up. Components clean up quickly with a wet towel; urethane coated pad bottom seals out morning dew ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01I0EV8VW | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Are batteries included? | No | | Battery Capacity | 2000 Milliamp Hours | | Battery Cell Composition | Zinc | | Best Sellers Rank | #27,627 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #4 in RC Aircraft Landing Gear | | Brand | Hoodman | | Brand Name | Hoodman | | Color | Orange | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Control Type | Remote Control | | Customer Reviews | 2.6 out of 5 stars 7 Reviews | | Included Components | Remote Control | | Includes Rechargeable Battery | No | | Includes Remote? | Yes | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 96"L x 96"W x 0.7"H | | Item Weight | 24 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Hoodman | | Material | Zinc | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Model Name | 8 Ft Pad | | Model Number | D120282 | | Optical Sensor Technology | optical flow, infrared | | Part Number | HDLP8 | | Skill Level | Beginner | | Supported Image Format | JPEG | | UPC | 017932334516 | | Video Capture Format | MP4, AVI, MOV | | Video Output Resolution | High Resolution | | Wireless Communication Technology | Radio Frequency | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Battery Capacity:** 2000 Milliamp Hours - **Brand:** Hoodman - **Color:** Orange - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Included Components:** Remote Control - **Item Weight:** 24 Pounds - **Model Name:** 8 Ft Pad - **Skill Level:** Beginner - **Video Capture Format:** MP4, AVI, MOV ## Images ![Hoodman 8 Foot Weighted UAV Drone Landing Pad fits Matrice 350, Freefly Alta, Sony Airpeak S1, Durable, No Stakes Required, collapses to 1/3 of deployed size - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Hlh5NI+HL.jpg) ![Hoodman 8 Foot Weighted UAV Drone Landing Pad fits Matrice 350, Freefly Alta, Sony Airpeak S1, Durable, No Stakes Required, collapses to 1/3 of deployed size - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fEMb8SfvL.jpg) ![Hoodman 8 Foot Weighted UAV Drone Landing Pad fits Matrice 350, Freefly Alta, Sony Airpeak S1, Durable, No Stakes Required, collapses to 1/3 of deployed size - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41QJ0Gs2WSL.jpg) ![Hoodman 8 Foot Weighted UAV Drone Landing Pad fits Matrice 350, Freefly Alta, Sony Airpeak S1, Durable, No Stakes Required, collapses to 1/3 of deployed size - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51sIcuLJQOL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ “Weighted” in name only.
