DJI F450 YKV Landing Skid Adapter and Battery Cage

thingiverse

The plates included with the YKV Landing gear didn't match up with the bottom plate of my official DJI Flamewheel F450 ARF kit. This adapter clips in place to solve that problem. I designed it specifically for this purpose and found it takes a little effort to get it started at first, requiring you to screw in the tube rings before pushing the tubes through. Once those tubes are pushed through, they won't unclip because the tubes make the assembly more rigid and can't be bent back out or on again. Four nylon M3 screws and nuts secure the adapter plate with precision. Also included is my battery tray designed to hook velcro straps around the adapter, securing it firmly in place. The inside dimensions of the battery tray are 116x64x34mm, making them a perfect fit for my multistar 4S 5200mAh lipo battery. I created two versions of this tray: one with a grill to reduce weight and another with solid walls. I'm not certain if this adapter will work with other similar landing skids, but it's definitely possible that it might. If you try it out and find it works with your gear, please let me know the details so I can share them here and help others locate compatible parts. If you have any questions or need minor modifications made to the design, don't hesitate to reach out.
