HARDDECK™ - Foldable Amphibious Drone Landing Pad

Patented Product Overview

Drone pilots, both professional and amateur alike, all know that sometimes drone operations need to be away from people. This can make take-off and landing areas tricky to find. The

WORLD'S FIRST and ONLY rigid HARDDECK™ FOLDABLE, AMPHIBIOUS DRONE LANDING PAD

is a rugged, portable, and multi-surface solution built for all size drones up to the DJI M400 series. Whether launching from rocky terrain, a sloped hillside, or directly on water — this landing pad ensures safe, stable takeoffs and landings. This foldable pad make transport and setup easier for field work.

Fold it. Float it. Deploy anywhere.

Six reasons for a protected drone landing pad:

1. Protect your expensive drone. The pad keeps dust, sand, and dirt out of motors and gimbal – especially on beaches, gravel roads, grass or dusty fields.

2. Improves Takeoff/Landing. The pad gives you a flat, stable surface in uneven or soft terrain and helps drones with downward vision sensors lock onto a clear, high-contrast target.

3. Protects the Environment. It also stops your props from kicking up stones or debris that could damage your drone or nearby people/property.

4. Visibility. A bright pad makes it easy to see where to land, especially if you’re flying further away or using Return-to-Home.

5. Professionalism. If you’re flying commercially (inspections, real estate, film work), using a pad looks more professional and organized.
