This is a compact launch pad designed specifically for drone racing. It folds neatly into a slim 20mm thick rectangle, making it simple to stash in your flight bag for easy transportation.

To assemble the walls and launch tabs, you will need to print two separate parts - one of which should be mirrored. This will ensure a precise fit and secure hold. In addition to the printed components, you'll require six 6x3mm rare earth magnets, a yard of 3/16th round steel stock, non-slip rubber pads, and epoxy for assembly.
