Hi Dudz, here's a pic of my Y6. I've make some landing gear from carbon fibre. There's about 5mm of clearance from the props. I've then duck taped fibreglass rods in a X while im learning.

When i get a spare couple of hours ill cut somthing like this for the upper and lower props that will also act at landing gear...

Can you post a photo Patrick, maybe one of us can come up with something?

Hi Dean,

Yes I am aware of that. I am very limited to landing gear on the Y6, as most gets in the way of the props.

Hi martin, did the Ublox Gps arrive today? i'll pop down tomorrow if they did :)

Do you know that on a Tricopter the rear motor has to be able to move on a servo?

Dudz, maybe you can search for my posts at fpvlabs forum where I posted alot of photos about my landing gear, I'm a complete newbie with RC, just started in january to order things, in march I had for the first time ana RC radio in my hand .. since than I tried to improve my tricopter to better fit to my needs

Belive me , those landing gears save more than a few props. I'm very happy about them.

PS. I fly using 6000mAh lipo and 250 grams compact camera.

A question please...Is the only advantage on a Y6 to a tricopter, the ability to still fly if one motor cuts out ? .... I am thinking maybe I could rebuild it as a tri and use a lighter battery, give me the same flight times. But also breaking less props on slightly heavy landings ? What do you think ?

Good idea Techshop. Might do that.

Looks like logs were full, and did'nt record this one. Cant find it. Maybe cause I switched the tx off, it continued on its own ? like failsafe.
