| I am launching a brand new and articulating landing gear brand named "SpiderGear"starting with the Align T-rex 450. This is a direct replacement for the stock gear. I spent considerable time coming up with a functional, durable and visually appealing design and i hope that you all agree. I know there are other flexible landing gear out there, but i decided to come up with something that works and is also more durable than anything out there. I have a few flying buddies that are in the learning process, dealing with hard landings and the broken parts that become of them. The Spider Gear are an assembly consisting of 3 cnc machined main components; an .032 6061 aluminum lower frame stiffener plate that sandwiches between the landing strut and the lower frame, a main landing strut that screws into the stock lower frame plate and 2 articulating arms that pin into the main landing strut. The aluminum skids are included as well. The hardware package includes 2 springs, 4 #2x1/2 screws, 2 stop pins, 2 axle pins, 4 retaining collars, 4 nylon thrust washers and 2 set screws for the landing skids (the skids are retaining only by the rear half of the gear, that way they can articulate upon an angled landing and start absorbing shock before the rest of the heli hits. All parts are powdercoated either super chrome, or silver vein. Custom colors can also be done. All up weight is approximately 3 ounces
Spidergear is designed to reduce the shock load that the helicopter structure receives, by using springs, dampening rate increases the farther the arms are flexed. The stiffener plate distributes the load across the bottom of the frame, further reducing shock loads to any one corner of the airframe. Stability is also dramatically increased as these gear are 1 1/8" wider than stock
I am so sure of the durability of this product that, The aluminum strut and arms will be covered with a lifetime replacement warranty.
Since this is a launch of a new product, i'm going to offer a special available here only on helifreak and runryder to jumpstart this exciting new product. For the next 2 weeks, I will sell the complete spidergear which includes the stiffener plate, 2 main struts, 4 arms, 2 skids and all of the necessary hardware for $29.95. I'm so confident in this product that if anyone who purchases a set of spidergear is unhappy with the performance, i will refund the money. I'm doing this special to get some gear out there for review. You will not be disappointed.
Patent papers were received and filed Friday the 4th, they are now in patent pending status and production will begin on Monday April 7th
