I'm going to do this. Funny coincidence, I just came across your post here after googling for an hour looking for landing gear solutions. I'm sick of good video shots being ruined by the landing gear. Especially since I installed the gimbal.
I actually just made a single leg for the compass and...
Absolutely. I'm trying to make sure that most of the expensive mods and upgrades I'm doing will scale up when I eventually buy an S800 or equivalent. Anyone using the Phantom will quickly see the shortcomings when it comes to competing against the pros. But it is one of the coolest hobbies...

Maybe I should also not call it a Demo Reel, that seems...
