Syma S107 Helicopter Landing Gear (skid replacement)

thingiverse

Landing gear for the SYMA S107 Helicopter. I decided not to have the skids and instead just to legs to keep the weight down. You will need to print two of these - one for each leg section. Notice that I have the legs put on such that the angle of the legs lean backwards (which is the opposite of the Syma skids) - this keeps the helicopter balanced better on the ground. Uses the same screws that hold in the original landing gear. Due to the very small size of this print, the tolerances are quite tight. On my printer it works fine, but did require some cleaning up of the sockets that the S107 pins fit into (and a bit of force) to get them to fit. No need for supports or rafts. Infill likely doesn't affect much since these are so small and very little infill is used, but I set 20% for mine. Print Settings Rafts: No Supports: No Infill: 20%
