Drones with foldable chassis

Foldable chassis

— the ability to fold the landing gear — supports used to park the quadcopter on the ground. Features of the implementation of this function can be different — for example, in some models, the booms on which the motors and landing gear are installed are made movable, and not only the chassis, but also each motor is raised / lowered. Anyway, this function allows you to switch between “flight” and “ground” modes and increases the efficiency of the device, but it significantly affects the weight, and most importantly, the cost. In addition, the folding chassis requires additional attention from the operator — so that, having forgotten, not to seat the car “on the belly”. As a result, professional-grade models are usually equipped with such supports.
