A quick release device 100 for releasably coupling a pair of landing gears in a UAV includes a housing 400 having two slots 102 for receiving landing gears to be locked and released, and two snap levers 200 pivotally mounted in the housing 400 for movement between a lock position and a release position. The snap levers 200 include a locking feature 104 to engage with a corresponding feature on the landing gears to lock them with the housing 400. Snap levers 200 are located such that the two snap levers can be moved together by a single thumb or finger to the released positions. A sheet shaped planar biasing device 300 for biasing snap levers 200 towards the locked position is provided, which includes two generally U-shaped cut-outs defining cantilever springs in contact with the snap levers 200.
