Abstract

This paper focuses on the stability of landing gear systems for quadrotor UAVs. As drones are increasingly deployed across diverse applications including precision agriculture, emergency logistics, and infrastructure inspection, landing gear stability becomes critical to ensuring safe and reliable operation especially during repeated takeoff and landing cycles. The study aims to dissect factors influencing quadrotor UAV landing gear stability and propose optimized design methodologies and enhancement strategies. Internationally, significant advancements have been achieved in structural design, material innovation, and shock absorption technologies for landing gear; however, challenges persist in adapting to extreme environments and balancing miniaturization with high performance. Domestic research has also progressed, yet gaps remain in interdisciplinary integration and studies under extreme operational conditions such as asymmetric impact loads. The paper provides a detailed analysis of structural characteristics, advantages, and limitations of fixed-type, wheel-type, and foldable landing gear configurations, offering tailored recommendations and solutions to address their respective shortcomings.
