Mount
these large retracting landing gear to to your 700 series or larger
multirotor. The Large Retracting Landing Gear has 12mm rails to mount
your gimbal and/or other rail mount accessory. The included 2mm CF
battery tray provides a large platform to mount accessories such as
flight packs, FPV downlinks, auxiliary batteries or just about anything
you can fit. All tubes are 3k twill weave carbon fiber with a matte
finish to keep weight under control and a clean look. With gimbal
mounting options including a 12mm rail mount a center mount for mounting
a gimbal directly under the retracts or, mount your gimbal to a
secondary plate up front and your flight packs in the back. Accessory
plates are also available (sold separately) that mount to the leg down
tubes providing a convenient location to mount radio equipment well away
from components that may cause unwanted interference. There is any
number of possibilities for securing to your craft and countless gimbals
you can mount.
With
retracting landing gear you can take full advantage of your gimbals
pan. With the legs retracted you will be able to rotate your gimbal on
its third axis to get a full panorama from the gimbal while your craft
remains in one location. With this capability on a one man setup you are
able to concentrate on your arial photography shot by panning your
camera not your craft. If you fly two man, you will no longer have two
people flying your shot, the pilot can focus on the flight and
photographer can focus on the shot removing the confusion of trying to
film, fly and pan.
Many
gimbals out there, both small and large, use a 12mm rail mount system
to secure it and make it easily removable if desired. We have designed a
couple rail and gimbal mounting options for you. The 12mm rails can be
mounted to secure a gimbal such as the DJI Zenmuse Z15 line, a
Photohigher AV200 or, many other gimbals that uses a 155mm width rail
mount. If your gimbal does not use a rail mount to secure the gimbal we
have cut several slots on the retract mounting plate to secure your
gimbal to these retracts. If you want the ease of use, transportation
and the balance-able aspects of a rail mounted gimbal but yours is not
mountable to rails, you can purchase a second battery tray. Modify the
plate, by drilling holes needed for your specific gimbal, then secure
your gimbal to the plate and mount on the front end of the rails. To
balance the gimbal mounted up front, there is a included rail mount
battery tray that can be mounted in the back to balance everything out..
The tray has enough room to secure 4 - 6s batteries and still have room
to the sides and on top to mount some accessory items like a video
downlink, auxiliary battery or any other items you may want to add.
