Description

One thing I noticed after buying the Skyrover X1 is that there aren't many accessories available for it, even here on MakerWorld. Since we've had a lot of rain lately where I live, most of my takeoffs and landings happen in grass, dirt, or damp ground.

I designed these landing legs to give the X1 a little more ground clearance and help keep the propellers from chewing up grass during takeoff and landing. They've been working well for me, and hopefully they'll help other X1 owners too.

A couple of things to note:

  • The rear legs are a little fragile during installation, so take your time when putting them on.
  • The front legs are much more refined, and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out.
  • This design is still a work in progress. I don't plan on stopping until I get them exactly where I want them.

For future versions, I'm considering a folding design that would allow the legs to tuck closer to the body when not in use. That would make the drone easier to carry and help reduce the chance of breaking a leg if it gets snagged on something while transporting it.

If you have suggestions, improvements, or criticism, please leave a comment. I genuinely appreciate feedback and would love to keep improving these for the Skyrover X1 community. I'm always open to ideas and constructive criticism.

Happy flying!

Print Notes

  • These parts have only been tested in ABS-GF so far.
  • ABS-GF has worked very well for me and provides good strength and durability.
  • I suspect PETG, PETG-CF, ASA, and similar materials would also work well, but I have not personally tested them.
  • I would avoid standard PLA if the drone will be left in a hot vehicle or direct sunlight for extended periods.
  • Install the rear legs carefully, as they are currently the most delicate part of the design.

Testing

  • These landing legs have been tested through multiple normal takeoffs and landings in grass, dirt, and uneven ground.
  • So far they have held up well during regular use.
  • They have not been tested with hard crashes, rough impacts, or severe abuse, so durability under those conditions is still unknown.

Thank you for checking out my design, and I hope it helps keep your Skyrover X1's propellers out of the grass as much as it has helped mine.
