Swag idea - Stickers

Yeah I was thinking that too. There are special techniques to make those. Tricky part is to make stuff aligned as those letters are cut separately color by color and on final sticker you need to join colors together. But can be done, just a bit laborious.

Friend of mine back in Finland used to have a sticker company and we made similar 2-3 color stickers now and then.

Comments on sticker sizes? Please measure some of your equipment and propose some sizes.

On decals above die cut sizes were, there is 2mm empty space around diecut and sizes below is total size of the sticker.

  • ArduPilot: 155 x 27mm
  • ArduPlane: 172 x 27mm
  • ArduCopter: 180 x 27mm

We are running test prints for those both on white pvc and transparent pvc. transparent pvc needs some lighter background to be strong enough but overall they are fine. I used to make some jDrones stickers on transparent already.

And we got die cut stickers… Here are first samples. Rover/sub etc will come a bit later

Letters are 23mm high, width from 150 to 176mm

These stickers have clear transfer tape on top, easy to mount your stickers where ever you want.

Outstanding!! I’ve been wanting an ArduPilot bumper sticker for the Jeep!

We just added two more DIE CUT stickers to swag shop:

ArduSub https://shop.ardupilot.org/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=70

ArduRover: https://shop.ardupilot.org/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=69

Later tomorrow we will add comparison picture to all those products on how they look against different backgrounds. Naturally DIE Cut stickers are the best ones. (Mind the background color and transfer tape)

I blasted this out to all the Solo facebook groups and forum. Hopefully that will pull in some business to support what really is the heart of the Solo!

@jpkh Already been asked on facebook… are there any plans to support payment methods other than paypal?

There are possibilities of supporting other methods but in generally 90% of the transactions are done in PP (yeah i know…) We are looking to have google,amazon and other payment gateways too. And even wiretransfers / Western Union are possible if there is enough demand for those.

We are open to all suggestions.

OK cool. A traditional “enter your credit card here” checkout is not in the plans though?

That is one for sure. We just need to integrate with companies like 2Checkout etc.

Any chance there is design for Ardutracker? I am 3D printing one and would love to incorporate the design into the printed parts.

Here are few pics that are meant for tracker use. We don’t have real ArduTracker text but I supposed we could make one.

I like! and i think ‘Station’ more accurately describes the system, as opposed to ‘tracker’ . Maybe we should think about renaming the firmware to Ardustation?

ArduStation Track it :wink:

I like the name. But that sort of implies it is a GCS in my mind. In fact if we were starting Mission Planner from scratch today, that would be a great name for a GCS!

IMO, ArduTracker would be appropriate, since that is what it’s doing. It doesn’t have to be for radios and antennas. It can be used to point anything at anything it is tracking. I might put a sticker on it that says ArduCIWS :slight_smile:

Add a RasPi running Maverick or just Mavproxy, and it could be a ‘station…’

Just added few more decals. Rover and Sub. Now we have all ArduPilot, Plane, Copter, Rover and Sub in swag shop. These all have white background. There is also full die cut with transfer stickers in shop. Got get one or two or three :slight_smile:
