I am having some difficulty finding both sides of the factory landing gear for the newer Vision +. I have seen several Amazon ads for the side with the anti-static compass (part# 18), but did not have the other side. It was over $6. shipping for the one side.
Can anyone point me to a dealer who would likely have both sides of the gear available? Just trying to gain that extra 1/2 or 3/4 inch ground clearance over the stock gear for my Phantom 2 v2, non-vision aircraft with the H3-3D and GoPro.
GMacD....I have been told in a previous discussion on this site that they can be put on the non-vision. I'm not clear on the height difference but it has been estimated at 1/2 or 3/4 inch. I will try to remember to let you know. Perhaps I will post an image on a new thread to show the difference. Perhaps a before and after set of images. I think the Phantom shells for the both of them are identical.
If I understand you correctly, You bought a set of Vision Plus legs and put them on. But not the Vision Plus leg with the anti-static compass. From what I have seen posted, you could open the new anti-static compass cover and plug in the older unshielded wire plug.

Yes, exactly. A set of vision+ legs without any compass. I refitted my original compass in the usual location.
I could upgrade to the new compass and as you say fit the old wire to it but I haven't done so yet.
I received my new Phantom Vision Plus landing gear today. They are taller than the non-vision gear. I will take some images and post the before and after tomorrow. Looks like a trouble-free mod.
