SwellPro 110 cm Drone Landing Pad

SwellPro 110 cm Drone Landing Pad — Oversized Protection for Fishing Drone Launches and Landings

The genuine SwellPro 110 cm Drone Landing Pad is an oversized, waterproof folding landing pad designed specifically to provide a clean, stable, clearly visible take-off and landing zone for SwellPro waterproof fishing drones and other large-format drone platforms. At 110 × 100 cm unfolded, this pad has sufficient clearance for wide-stance airframes including the SwellPro Fisherman MAX (FD2) — the largest fishing drone in SwellPro's lineup — as well as the FD1+, FD3 and other models.

Constructed from silicone leather with a waterproof and dustproof finish, this pad is purpose-built to handle the harsh conditions of Australian beach, rock platform and headland drone fishing — where loose sand, sea spray and uneven terrain are unavoidable.

Why the SwellPro 110 cm Pad?

Standard landing pads available at consumer electronics stores are typically 60–70 cm — adequate for camera drones but marginal for large fishing drones with wide propeller spans. The SwellPro 110 cm pad provides:

• Maximum clearance for the Fisherman MAX: The FD2's large airframe and heavy-lift propellers require a generously sized pad to provide a safe landing buffer; the 110 cm × 100 cm surface covers the MAX's footprint with room to spare
• Waterproof silicone leather construction: Unlike fabric nylon pads that absorb water and attract wet sand, the silicone leather surface repels water, wipes clean easily and resists the salt and UV degradation common in Australian coastal environments
• Official SwellPro fit: Genuine SwellPro accessory — designed with the Fisherman range's dimensions and high-payload landing dynamics in mind
• 6 ground stakes: Extra stake count (versus 3 on standard pads) provides more secure anchoring on soft or loose beach sand where the Fisherman MAX's powerful motor downdraft would otherwise displace the pad

Protecting Your Fishing Drone on Every Launch and Landing

Sand, grit and loose debris are significant threats to waterproof fishing drones — even IP67-rated models like the SwellPro Fisherman FD1+ and FD3. Propeller downdraft creates a high-velocity airflow directly below the aircraft during take-off and landing. Without a pad:

• Fine beach sand is blasted into motor gaps, propeller mounts and airframe crevices by the downwash
• Loose pebbles and shell fragments can be thrown upward into spinning propeller arcs
• Wet salt sand deposits on landing gear, battery connectors and electrical interfaces
• Soft sand can cause uneven touchdown angles, increasing the risk of tip-over on landing — especially with heavy payloads still attached

The SwellPro 110 cm pad eliminates all of these hazards, providing a flat, stable, debris-free surface that also gives the drone's cameras and GPS sensors a clear, high-contrast reference point for precision landings.

Compatible Drones

• SwellPro Fisherman MAX (FD2): Primary use case — the 110 cm × 100 cm pad provides adequate clearance for this large heavy-lift platform
• SwellPro Fisherman FD3: Excellent fit — generous pad area makes precision landings easier, particularly in wind
• SwellPro Fisherman FD1+: Ample clearance for the 628 mm × 628 mm airframe
• SwellPro Fisherman FD1 (original): Compatible
• SwellPro SplashDrone 4: Compatible
• Other large-format fishing and commercial drones with airframe widths up to ~90 cm

Care and Maintenance

The silicone leather surface is low-maintenance but benefits from basic post-session care:

• Rinse after beach sessions: Wipe the pad surface with a damp cloth or rinse under running water to remove salt and sand — the silicone leather surface dries quickly and doesn't absorb water
• Fold dry: Shake off excess water and allow to air-dry briefly before folding for storage to prevent mould in humid coastal climates
• Clean stakes separately: Rinse stakes to remove sand and salt from the tips before storage in the carry bag
• Store in carry bag: Keeps the pad clean and protects the silicone surface from UV degradation and scratching during transport
