There is a guy on ebay who sells printed ones. I had a buddy print some for me but they ended up being brittle and were the wrong side.

Anybody 3d printing nylon hook plates? I know the guy in alaska on ebay still sells them for $50. I had a landing mishap and caught a prop with my finger and it landed "poorly" lol. It wasn't even that hard and the printed hook plate I got broke and it broke way too easily IMO.... Figured...

I noticed the same thing--a few times instead of being centered I was off to one side of the video.

We talking about crash's---I am in :D

Got a chance to finally have some good weather and ran 3 batteries thru the drone. I can say the latest update--big improvement.. The time to launch seemed quicker When it went to gps tracking--it seemed like it was much better. Prior many times when it lost sight--it would act like a blind...

So far its working good and ya--$50 is too much IMO but I was in a pinch... Anybody have the file in case I locate a buddy with a printer?

I don't "yet" but this is what I have found so far and a few have said it holds up...

The hook plate is plastic though...

Tree strike--went down.... So far I can only find one guy printing replacement hook plates and looks like he is in alaska..

I just got it back from being fixed, first time out, less than a minute. Was hovering while I got into my rig when it went down...

One thing I often wondered was if color had anything to do with its tracking ability... I might have to try that idea with a buddy's red jeep. But I got mine back from being fixed like over a month ago and I have yet been able to get it out due to weather...

Another branch strike and it must have whacked a rock when it hit.

Took another hit and gotta send it in again... ugh. After a bunch of test flights at home this was the first time out to use it.... Ya know if this thing worked like they say I would not have an issue having a second one on deck...

I am almost afraid to fly after the update and haven't due to weather... Wish I had some open areas to learn it. I had thought of doing some walking with it but I don't know if it learns enough when I am out in thew woods in my rig..hmmmm...

Finally got a chance to do another. This was the first time I flew it manual. I usually use my Mavic for this type of stuff but figured I would give my skydio a shot at it...
