Very clever! There have been a few discussions about the legs over the months.

Your solution is cheap and effective. A+

in texas we use mud tires XD no this was a very smart idea, it would be wise to think of different situations that can occur because of our landing spot. mud is one of many things.

Very nice solution, give the legs less "biting power" on surface too! I like it a lot! 

BTW I sell the red arms (but for legacy 3DR frames using 28cm arms compared to the new ones 24cm) 

RED replacement Arms

You can do the same thing with pool noodles. Cheap, easy to source and come in lots of colors. I think the way you have them mounted works better than in this photo though. On the hexa I'm now mounting them like you do:
