If you're planning to build a massive ship, the NG-20 Landing Gear or Hope 55 Landing Gear will be the most useful to add during ship customization. These landing gears provide the highest lander thrust which allows them to carry ship designs with high mass.
The Hope 55 Landing Gear can be purchased in HopeTown, while the NG-20 Landing Gear can be purchased in New Homestead.
Subjective Based On Aesthetics and Costs
The landing gears are ship parts in Starfield that don't provide a lot of changes to a ship's stats. You can simply choose gears that best fit your ship's look and your current credits.
What are Landing Gears?
Landing Gear Stats Overview
| Landing Gear Stats Overview | |
|---|---|

The Landing Gears allow your ship to land on different planet surfaces and terrain while keeping your ship upright. Ships will not be functional without proper landing gear.

Minimum Landing Gear Count
Ship has too few landing gears
In order for a ship design to be acceptable, it has to have enough landing gears to hold the ship upright. The gears' lander thrust stat determines the mass limit of a ship. 1 point of lander thrust can hold approximately 200 mass. If your ship has a total mass of 1000, your landing gears must have a total lander thrust of 5 or more.
Ship Building and Customization Guide
How to Upgrade Landing Gears
Visit Ship Technicians and Purchase Parts
