[0043] In addition, the multi-rotor UAV landing gear also includes a sliding column 220, a support rod 340, a cable 310 and a sheave 350; the sliding column 220 is slidably embedded in the first inner cavity 260; the cross section of the sliding column 220 is circular; the cross section of the first inner cavity 260 is circular; the outer wall of the sliding column 220 slides and fits against the inner wall of the first inner cavity 260; the sliding column 220 includes a first end 320 close to the second arm 240 and a second end 330 away from the second arm 240; the support rod 340 is connected to the first end 320, and the support rod 340 is in the first inner cavity 260; the support rod 340 is parallel to the central axis of the sliding column 220; the sheave 350 is rotatably arranged in the first inner cavity 260; the central axis of the sheave 350 is perpendicular to the central axis of the sliding column 220; one end of the cable 310 The end is connected to the end of the support rod 340 away from the sliding column 220, and the other end of the cable 310 is wrapped around the sheave 350, and is successively passed through the first inner cavity 260, the second inner cavity 270 and the third inner cavity 280, and extends out of the third inner cavity 280, and finally connected to the inner bottom wall of the sleeve 180; the end of the support rod 340 close to the second arm 240 is closer to the second arm 240 than the sheave 350; the elastic force of the spring 290 straightens the cable 310 and makes the sliding column 220 tend to extend out of the first inner cavity 260; the second end 330 is configured to be rounded; an arc-shaped stopper 210 is provided at each end of the first cross arm 140, and an arc-shaped stopper 210 is provided at each end of the second cross arm 160; the arc surface of the arc stopper 210 faces the first arm 230.
