Damping in landing gear of a quad

Hi
I have been working on a quad and got curious about the damping concept in landing of a UAV. Is there any practical existence of this concept? If some one wants to implement some sort of damping mechanism in the landing gear, how is that possible? And one last thing, will it really work for hard landings?

I got interesting results using fiber sticks, tightened and curved using connecting lines. https://twitter.com/rodrigonh2/status/1643712241366192128

Now just using sticks. Can adjust dampening “factor” changing the angle of the sticks.

Hi!
Interesting thing actually, using the concept of pogo sticks. Thanks man!
