Default New landing gear for T-Rex 450 SE v2

It took only 15 minutes to fit new landing gear from T-Rex 600 CF.

What for?

1) Enough space under belly (80mm+) to attach HD camcorder (65mmx65mmx120mm).
2) Much safer landing with 2+ times wider and 2+ times longer landing gear.
3) Stronger for rough landing with or w/o camera.
4) Still looks cool, although obviously oversized.
5) Easy to hover looking at much longer parts of the landing gear.
6) Just 30 grams heavier than origional landing gear.
7) Fit perfectly with 4 new holes.

Please, take a look at photos.
