I am working on a design for a set of landing skid extensions. They must remain out of the camera frame, work on thick grass, and gentle inclines, be resilient, and have a nice appearance. What other qualities should be factored into the design?

I'm working on a design with that very idea, but it becomes a complex problem very quickly with all the angles and curves involved. I should have a prototype out soon though. But the complexity translates into cost.Onezerosix141 said:How come no one is working on something to extend and widen the landing skids at where it bolts on?
