Legs for F450 clone

grabcad

To hone my drone building and flying skills, I purchased a Chinese F450 clone. However, my clumsy landings often resulted in broken legs. In search of solutions, I discovered Thingiverse, where I found numerous models including this one https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1206960. Grateful for the shared design, I utilized their long leg models for a while. As I added a gimbal and camera, the drone's weight increased, causing limited distance from the ground. To rectify this, I designed an improved pair of legs, 20mm taller and stronger due to broader width and closed arm panels. This is a new design inspired by various other versions. For easy printing, the attachment plate is asymmetrically placed, resulting in two leg variations - Type A and B. A complete set consists of four legs (two of each type). If there are any drone landing experts out there, feel free to share your insights! Revision 2019-12-09: I introduced a second version with removed "keyhole" cutout at the top for increased strength, although flexibility is reduced. Choose according to your preferences based on weight and other factors.
