Just a thought, it may add wind resistance to a drone that doesn't like the wind.
I do however have folding leg extenders on my M2P.

I once had landing gear like the ones linked..., too narrow base for reliable operation

 

[Ronny St.]

I do own the one you refer to and I am happy with it. Takes away the trouble finding a smooth landing spot (especially in grassy enviroment etc.) and protects the gimbal when landing. I did not notice a remarkable effect on wind resistance nor on the battery use .

I have one like this, it is realy usefull for landing on surface that are not totally flat & clean. But i prefere a second model that is lighter but prevent arms from bending/rotating:

Landing gear to stiffen front arms

Hi, I bought a landing gear extension for mavic mini which has a positive side effect on the stiffness of the front arm. I know that some owners report a problem with propellers touching the body of the drone or more serious problems potentially due to the "flexibility" of the front arms (with...

i have the same it works quite well ,and does not cause any issues with how the MM flies it is very light and does not trigger the payload mode ,only issue i had, was because i have a skin on my MM it was catching the skin as it was being removed ,i got round this ,by gently filing a small amount off the lugs that clip onto the body and this has fixed the problem,if you do this mod only use a nail file and be careful not to remove to much material at once you will know when it is done ,the only other thing ,is you will need a place in your case to carry the gear, i was lucky as my hard case had a spare cutout that i was able to modify to fit it

The Mini sits very close to the ground. Even grass can cause issues. I use folding extensions and love them. They work.

I have this same landing gear and I really like it. I just got it so I've only used it on a couple of flights, but haven't seen any adverse effects. My first flight with them I was flying in 12-14mph winds and the Mini didn't have any problems.

I would rather find a better place to launch and hand catch. I don't think those legs would be much help in tall or even medium length grass and they are tippy if not landing on level ground.

I either use the tonneau cover on my truck, a round landing pad with stakes, or my hand if I can't find a clean level space for taking off and landing.

I have the same with no issues.

 

[DanMan32]

Even with a landing pad, if the ground under it isn't flat enough, it can affect the gimbal. There's almost no clearance between gimbal and ground.

 

[DOC LEMIEUX]

I have the Neelix that attach on the bottom. I have them on both of my minis. Easy on and easy off. Does not block vents. I add the weight to protect the cam

The MM is small enough to land on a flat hand and take off from your hand. Just be careful or you’ll get chewed up.

I have one on my MM and it works well. It keeps it clear of the ground etc. It also makes it easier to hand catch.

 

[RussGuss]

These do fold up under the belly. so it is the best of both worlds.

I have one of these on my Mini. Very lightweight, and keeps it off the wet grass ... I never had a problem with it.

 

[Shashadoobie]

Wouldn’t fly without it... custom strobe added as well.

 

[shaneb50]

I use a extended landing gear for my mini drone. So far I have no problems with them
The flight time is still around 25 minutes for each flight [emoji106][emoji3]
