DV686G landing gear skid install

[Dane 1968]

I just received the Special Edition DV686G Quadcopter from WL Toys. The landing gear is separate from the quad. There are 2 sets of screws included, (8)short and (8) long. Which are for the landing skids?

Long screws........

Thanks. The instructions don't mention anything. So, then the short ones are for the blade protectors?

I would assume so, but I never installed them..............I fly around trees a good bit and all I could think was they were great for getting caught in branches when(not if) I tangled with a tree.

Yeah, they do tend to stick to branches pretty easy. I had a Propel Cloud Rider that had them already installed. It was basically a V686. Lost it a few weeks ago. I now have the V686G. Haven't flown it yet.
