Best Landing Gear Extensions for DJI Mini

Landing gear extensions for DJI Mini drones lift the aircraft off the ground to protect the camera and props, but each kit fits only some Mini models, and every kit adds weight. Many Minis weigh 246 to 249 g, so even a 10 g kit can push one past 250 g (0.55 lb). In the US, the FAA counts everything attached to the drone at takeoff.

If your Mini is over 250 g (0.55 lb) with the legs and flight battery on, register it with the FAA and fly with Remote ID, even for hobby flying. Also check that the legs stay clear of the vision sensors and the gimbal. Last checked: October 2026.

Match the kit to your exact model. STARTRC is for the Mini 4 Pro only, and YETEETH is named for the Mini 3 Pro. Cajjalororc and Inifispce name older Minis such as the Mini 2, Mini SE and Mini 4K, and HeiyRC says multiple DJI models without naming them. The listings we checked do not name the Mini 5 Pro.

How We Chose Landing Gear Extensions for DJI Mini

Model fit comes first, because legs made for one Mini often do not suit another. We then compared the weight each kit adds, the material, the folding design and extras such as LEDs or water legs. We did not fly these kits, and we could not test whether they block sensors, so check that yourself after fitting.

Weight matters most on a Mini because of the 250 g line. The weights below come from the comparison table.

STARTRC Legs

The STARTRC legs are made for the Mini 4 Pro only (the listing also names the Fly More Combo). They fold, snap on without tools and have a sloped shape that lifts the camera off the ground. The table lists 25 g.

A Mini 4 Pro weighs about 249 g, so with these legs on it goes past 250 g. If you keep them on, plan to register the drone and use Remote ID. Check that the legs do not sit in front of the downward vision sensors.

Overall Sentiment: Positive

Pros and Cons

• Pro: Made for the Mini 4 Pro
• Pro: Folds, with a tool-free snap-on fit (per the listing)
• Con: The 25 g in the table takes a Mini 4 Pro past 250 g
• Con: Fits no other Mini model

Situational Benefits

Ease Of Use

Versatility

Made for the Mini 4 Pro, so it has limited use on other models. It suits owners of that one drone.

Safety Features

The listing mentions a design that helps keep the battery in place. The sloped legs lift the camera off the ground. They add weight and sit close to the body, so check the vision sensors and the gimbal after you fit them, and hover low before you climb.

Durability

The table lists plastic and the listing says ABS. That handles normal bumps but not hard crashes, so treat the legs as everyday protection.

Problem Solving

Solves low ground clearance and the camera touching grass or gravel at takeoff and landing. The listing also mentions battery loss prevention.

Key Benefits

• Made for the Mini 4 Pro
• Adds ground clearance for the camera
• Foldable, tool-free snap-on fit (per the listing)
• Sloped shape that lifts the camera (per the listing)

Cajjalororc Combo

This kit is named for the Mini 4K. The product name and listings for similar kits name the Mavic Mini, Mini 2, Mini SE, Mini 2 SE and Mini 4K. It has standard folding legs and water landing legs, and the table lists five units and 36.3 g.

At 36.3 g, it takes a 246 to 249 g Mini well past 250 g. The water legs are meant for landing on water. A Mini is not waterproof, and a water landing can damage or lose the drone, so use them only if you accept that risk.

What People Say

We have not read every review, so skim the recent ones for notes on fit.

Overall Sentiment: Positive

Pros and Cons

• Pro: Includes both standard and water landing legs
• Pro: Names older Minis such as the Mini 2, Mini SE and Mini 4K
• Con: 36.3 g takes these Minis over 250 g
• Con: A Mini is not waterproof, so water landings carry real risk

Situational Benefits

Ease Of Use

Versatility

It suits owners of the older Mini models named in the listing. It does not name the Mini 3, Mini 3 Pro or Mini 4 Pro, so it is not a universal kit. Check your exact model on the listing.

Safety Features

The water legs are meant for landing on water, but a Mini has no waterproof rating. Water can reach the motors and electronics, and a drone that lands on water can drift away. The standard legs lift the airframe off the ground. Rinse and dry the legs after sand or water.

Durability

The table lists plastic. It handles normal use but not hard crashes.

Problem Solving

Gives extra ground clearance on grass, sand and uneven ground. The water legs are for water landings, which carry real risk for a Mini.

Key Benefits

• Standard folding legs and water landing legs
• Five units, per the table
• Names older Minis such as the Mini 2, Mini SE and Mini 4K
• 36.3 g per the table

Inifispce LED

The Inifispce kit is named for the Mini 4K and has built-in LED lights. The table says it works with multiple models, and similar LED kits name the Mavic Mini, Mini 2, Mini SE, Mini 2 SE and Mini 4K. The table lists 41 g, the heaviest of the five.

At 41 g, it takes a 246 to 249 g Mini well past 250 g. The details we found do not say how the LEDs are powered. Small leg LEDs can help you see which way the drone faces. For night flights in the US, the FAA requires an anti-collision light visible from 3 statute miles, and leg LEDs may not meet that rule, so check the current FAA rules.

What People Say

We have not read every review, so skim the recent ones for notes on fit and the LEDs.

Overall Sentiment: Positive

Pros and Cons

• Pro: Built-in LEDs help you see which way the drone faces
• Pro: Foldable design
• Con: 41 g is the heaviest kit here

FAQ

Are They Compatible With My Mini?

Check your exact model. The Mini 2, Mini SE, Mini 2 SE, Mini 3, Mini 3 Pro, Mini 4K, Mini 4 Pro and Mini 5 Pro are different drones, and a kit made for one may not fit another. In this list, STARTRC is for the Mini 4 Pro and YETEETH is named for the Mini 3 Pro. Cajjalororc and Inifispce name older Minis such as the Mini 2, Mini SE and Mini 4K. Check the sensors on your model too, and make sure the legs do not cover them.

How Do I Install And Maintain Them?

Installation is usually simple—snap or slide the legs into the mount points and give each connection a firm press until it seats securely. Secure attachment is important so nothing shifts during takeoff; perform a short hover test close to the ground to confirm stability.

After use, especially in sandy or wet environments, rinse lightly with fresh water, dry thoroughly and fold them for storage to keep mounting surfaces clean and functioning.

Do They Affect Weight, Flight Time Or Registration?

Extra weight can shorten flight time a little and can change how the drone handles in wind. We found no maker data on flight time for these kits, so we cannot give numbers.

The bigger issue is the 250 g line. These kits add 10 to 41 g per the table, and many Minis weigh 246 to 249 g. Weigh your Mini with the legs and flight battery on. If it is over 250 g (0.55 lb), register it with the FAA and fly with Remote ID, even for hobby flying. The FAA counts everything attached to the drone at takeoff.

The plastic and ABS parts handle normal use but not hard crashes, so treat them as everyday protection.

Do They Block Obstacle Sensors Or The Gimbal?

They can. Models such as the Mini 3 Pro and Mini 4 Pro have vision sensors on the body, and legs must stay clear of them. DJI does not make or test these legs. After you fit a kit, check that the gimbal moves freely, that no leg shows in the camera view, and that the app shows no sensor warnings. Hover low before you climb.

Which Landing Gear Suits You

Match your model first. STARTRC is for the Mini 4 Pro and YETEETH is named for the Mini 3 Pro. For an older Mini, Cajjalororc includes water legs, but a Mini is not waterproof. Inifispce adds LEDs, but check the FAA night-light rule. HeiyRC is light and has the most reviews, so check its model list. Whichever you choose, weigh the drone with the kit on.

Wrapping Up

Check your exact Mini model, then check the weight. Every kit here adds 10 to 41 g, which takes most Minis past 250 g. Over that line, you must register the drone and fly with Remote ID in the US.

STARTRC suits the Mini 4 Pro and YETEETH the Mini 3 Pro. Cajjalororc and Inifispce name older Minis, with water legs and LEDs. HeiyRC is light and most reviewed, but the table does not name its models. After fitting, check the sensors and gimbal and hover low first.

Last checked: October 2026. Availability of DJI drones and third-party accessories varies, and FAA rules can change, so confirm both before you fly.
