Just a little 2 Cents.
I recently got an Inspire 2, with standard Props.
The red props (revision 2) are very firm on the mounts click into place, grip on the centre "plug", positively locked in place, the white props are a little wobbly, drop into place with no firm seating on the centre "plug", flog out a little over several hours.
The Problem appears to be too much clearance between the locking lug (twist lock) and the locking "cam surface".
The fixes which build up the base of the hub run the risk of resulting on a non-flat mounting surface, a better fix appears to be building up the locking surface on the prop hum (the reverse bevel which the locking lug presses down on, a dab of CA, or a skim of UV curing MA should do the trick, plan on doing this with the Props I have, which haven't flown yet.)
Currently going through the Process/exercise of returning the original white hubs and Props for a warranty test, just for the exercise (outlayed $60 for new locking plates and Props, so I can fly in the mean time).
If no one complains, nothing gets done.
The carbon props look real nice, price is up there, but the Carbon props sold through an official DJI seller locally for the I1 are just as expensive, the think with a positively fixed hub is there is no quick release connection to flog out, a quick connect will always be mechanically worse than a rigid connection.....
Non Folding Bolted on carbon Props will be suboptimal too, as the motors are not designed to have the screws put in and out constantly, the threads in the motor bell will eventually wear out.
In the case of a crash, whatever you do, don't mention the Props. (jk. Fawlty Towers) |
