I’d hold your horses there, I did mean mismatched props, and how do you know everyone would notice this? After all mini was out for months and still many many users did not notice this warning in the manual, maybe you can tell us how you’re so sure that all users have checked their props were put on correctly.
You say they are clearly marked one has two stripes other has one stripes and they are approximately 2.5mm wide.
And your last point is totally off the charts as warning for props arrived with last FW.
Yes, sorry I misunderstood your post. You probably misunderstood mine too, as I'm fully aware that this Motor Error warning was introduced with the latest firmware.
Anyways, back to the issue at hand: your theory about mismatched props is very plausible, and would explain a lot of things. The stripes have nothing to do with it, though, as they simply identify which corner the props go on (CW or CCW). Matched pairs have the same raised markings (letter/number, like C3, F2, E3) on the leading edge, and those are very easy to miss. It would be interesting to ask those people who got the error and replaced the props, to check whether they were mismatched or not.
I do not understand why you completely rule out other theories, like improper storage flattening the rear props, or bad batches of props. Both seem very plausible. |
