I forgot to pack back my 4 propellers after a flight,  so I baught 4 new original props.

One of them fits fine but does not spring down and up as soft as the other 3 (sometimes it sticks down and have to lift it back up.

Should I discard it and be safe?

Someone experienced this situation?

Thanks to all

Ps, it's the silver one and tried it in both motors of the p4p

Send it back, if anything happens with one of your props your drone is dead, never take a chance, try the other prop on that motor if that fits ok then it's a bad prop,

Yes, as i said, the other silver prop fits perfectly on both motors.
Can't send it back cos it will cost twice as much in postage

Thanks

Have you visually checked the propeller's seating on both gray ring propellers?

i wouldnt mess around with a suspect prop, it is not worth the safety of your drone.  If the prop is defective then i dont understand why you would have to pay for the shipping.  If you bought through eBay or paypal then you should be protected

Agreed 100%, it was cheaper for me to trash it than risking the drone
