MJX Bugs 2 Landing Gear / Feet

thingiverse

I customized my MJX Bugs 2 to get it up in the air (or in my case, to carry a DIY gimbal that you can see in the photo), I didn't want to cover the LEDs with legs or attach heavy aftermarket ones, so I made my own. Be sure to remove the four screws from the Bugs 2 case before inserting the legs, this way if you break them in a heavy crash and can't remove them with pliers, you can dismantle the bug and push the remaining pieces of leg out through the screw hole from inside with a small screwdriver (I learned that the hard way). These legs fit very snugly into the holes and do not sit flush to the body for this reason, depending on your printer you may need to adjust them slightly, in the 7zip file I have included my original 3DS Max 8 project file (there is also the OBJ, STL, and a TEVO Tornado SD Card Print ready gco file). On my printer it takes 2-3 hours to print so I recommend turning the bed temperature down to 0 once the first few layers have been printed and then turn it back up again to 40 to get them off. If you have to remove the legs from the bug, twist/turn them out, don't pull them directly otherwise they will break. These legs won't survive a heavy landing or any kind of landing while moving at speed, I suggest using the auto take-off/landing feature on the bug with them attached. At 4% infill on a TEVO Tornado each leg weighs 4g.
