Landing Gear Color - Anyone try this?

This is random... but does anyone know if you can dye the landing gear (below the sensor are located)? Wondering if anyone has tried this.

Just Thinking : Why would you want to do that ?....yes its possible .

AerialPaolo5286 · Dec 17, 2018

Just to give the drone a standout appearance... I dyed the propellers. No other reason.

Careful. The Antennas are in the landing gear

Good call. I didn't realize the antennas were in the skids. You saved my drone lol... Thanks

Red landing gears....A Blue body....and White props would be my colors choice .....that would Be Cool and neat looking BUT the drone would sure have to be completely took apart to do that !...IMHO not worth the effort !

You could get a blue wrap for the body and red for the landing gear.

Sounds like the perfect job for ‘decal girl’.

They do some awesome drone wraps. Maybe they would have something for the gear too.(?)

Most wraps come with landing gear wrap so you should be able to get that separate.

I got bored with the standard white color. I also read on here that someone had done some pretty neat jobs with alcohol inks. I decided to give it a try on my old FC40. I tried several times to upload a picture, but that isn't working. I did post the same picture in the FC40 discussion page under the FC40 with Gopro Hero Session 5 topic. Not too long ago. The alcohol inks don't add any weight to the ac or interfere with the electronics.
