Ok, This red prop issue has been displayed on Youtube, discussed on this forum and posted many times on the Inspire 2 Facebook page. Many who don't fequent this forum OR follow the Inspire 2 on Facebook do not even realize they have a problem ! DJI, you have attempted to satisfy the consumer be dampening the rattle sound of the red prop by supplying a so called "version 2" prop which is simply a black foam insert installed inside the prop hub. This insert forces the newly installed red prop to sit high on the quick mount assembly and applies pressure against the prop retaining clips thus "solving the rattle problem" . The unfortunate thing about this "save face" repair is that after a few flights, the foam insert takes set and the prop becomes loose once again.
We ( the DJI Inspre 2 Owners ) know that the real cause of the rattle is the difference in height between the retaining clip assembly AND the backing plate that was designed for the prop to sit firmly against !!!!
If you doubt me..............feel free to compare the distance using a caliper on your own aircraft.
I have read posts of concerned owners contacting DJI customer service about this issue only to be requested to return your props and DJI will send you a new set after they (DJI) receive yours !!!! Those of us who dont (or did not) want to experience the time lag with DJI customer service (or whatever inter company protocol ) that is well known and frustrating have purchased their own new sets of version 2 props only to find that the above mentioned problem is resurfacing.
DJI, you have said in the past that there is no reason to be concerned with rattling props. (????)
Reality is:
1. When our aircraft is climbing in a direct verticle flight path..........there is no wear or fractional vibration issue .
2. When our aircraft is moving IN ANY OTHER direction there IS a wear and fractional vibration issue.
3. Foam inserts mask ther real problem that is in fact a design, part fabrication, part inventory OR Quality Control issue that is being overlooked.
4. DJI, You already know that you have a quick attach hub issue and are not openly addressing this issue in any forum or on Facebook.
5. WE all know that you monitor the forums and Facebook as moderators or users.
6. With recent You Tube videos of individuals explaining how to correct the space gap between the prop hub and motor it has come down to the consumers concern for safety and the
possible loss of his or her aircraft ???
7. If this was a kit built or pre assembled large scale RC copter....................would the RC pilot take off after noticing a loose rotor ????
DJI, We the DJI INSPIRE 2 OWNERS deserve a solution to this "Red Propeller Mount" problem. We as consumers expect all four prop mounts to be firm and secure OUT OF THE FACTORY !
DJI, We the DJI INSPIRE 2 OWNERS do not deserve to be required to sent our aircraft in for review and service for this issue, resulting in 30 days plus of down time.
DJI, We the DJI INSPIRE 2 OWNERS deserve a open response with a detailed solution to this manufacturing on design problem ON THIS THREAD.
Thank you in advance for your promp response to this thread.
