i recently ran across these while investigating a set of r/c airplane pontoons to affix to my phantom...

Anybody have anything like on their craft? Or know anybody? The thought of water anywhere near my drone makes me nervous, but if you're flying over water it seems like a great safety device to have on...
#DroneAnywhere $120-$150ish

I really need to assess how much weight the phantom can lift i.e. Am I going bass fishing or just trout?

I see there has been some talk of the stuff a couple years ago here...
Liquipel - a waterproof drone?

I...am considering applying this:
