title_body: Putting decorations onto a drone? I want to jazz my quadcopter up a bit, maybe put some stickers or little sequins.
  
  
  Will these affect the flying capability of the drone, even though they aren’t that heavy?
  Will this affect balance?
upvoted_answer: So long as your additions are very lightweight compared to the drone - like stickers or paint - this should not have a significant effect the balance of your drone. However, you want to make sure that you do not cover any ventilation holes or heat transfer surfaces as this might affect the lifespan of those parts.
  
  In the case of metallic additions (shiny stickers, sequins) it is good practice to keep these clear of the antenna as they may affect the radio performance.
  
  You should avoid adding anything to the propellers or motors as these do need to be precisely balanced.
