Umbrella Corp Launch Pad

thingiverse

Need a clear spot to launch your drone? Something simple to pick out from background distractions? I've got just what you need. This is a launching pad built from the Umbrella Corp logo design. It measures 400mm across (I'm also working on a 300mm version). The center features a bubble level and comes with chopsticks or printed leg alternatives that snap into place to adjust for leveling. Easy as can be. Familiar with Resident Evil? You know the corporate logo of Umbrella Corporation. Seen any of the movies? There are several different logo representations - some are completely round, octagonal, or scalloped-edged like the one I used in this design. This launch pad isn't as portable as my foldable original concept and might be a bit over-engineered, but if you're lugging around a piece of plywood to launch from, it's probably simpler to use. If your drone uses a downward-facing camera for landing, this platform should be easy to spot against dirt or other surfaces. Maybe you'll even have better luck landing on the platform - something I've yet to master with my own drone.
