Default RE: Skids anyone?

I would recommend the Walkera36/T-rex 3D struts and aluminum skids, they sit lower than the stock AXE CP gear, are more stout, and lower the center of gravity, making for easier landings. I bought mine thru HeliProz, but others carry them as well. Here's some comparision photos, showing the difference between the two.
