Buy a sticker for the quadrocopter
In the post from almost half a year ago I already got you guys this badge shown by Amazon. This is an address label to stick on, made of weather-resistant, abrasion-resistant and saltwater-resistant aluminum. The size of the badge for the drone is 40 x 10 millimeters, i.e. 4,0 x 1,0 centimeters.
The Drohnen.de shop offers a good alternative with the desired color (black, blue, red or green) an individual engraved text and different sizes (micro, nano, etc.). Check it out - In addition to the products, there are also helpful information and legal advice on drones and their labeling.

Thanks to you Moritz! I recently got myself a nano badge for the Mavic Air. These things are so small that you don't mess up your drone under any circumstances. The prettier things get, the more you pay attention to them. With my ancient octocopter from MikroKopter you are already happy if the things looked different before departure than after the crash. : D
