RC Helicopter Beginner, landing gear wanting to know whats called!?

Question

Ok im starting of my RC helicopter question with a DRAGONFLY 251 model, now befor I have heard of a product which was a pair of landing gear which were 4 beams going out on the bottom with balls on the end of them, theyre called somthing like training landing gear or somthing but I just cant seem to find them anymore. Thankyou for your help.

Answer 1

Training gear is the term used for the construct that you attach to the bottom of the landing gear to help prevent tip overs during training.

I made mine from two fiberglass rods, 4 ping pong balls and some rubber bands.
