I would recommend anyone who still doubts whether bad props are responsible for these Motor Error warnings, as well as uncommanded descents, to read this thread on the MavicPilots forum, by a well-known member (SAR104).
I fail to see how you can definitely say this is only a prop fault, or it looks like you’re pushing this idea, I think with tests shown here this was not proved and I think if you look at what BW is saying there is some skepticism there.
SAR set out to prove that props and only props were the cause, and in doing so he had to purposely damage props to prove that damaged props were the cause, now there is not much logic in that. No matter what dji craft you fly damaged props will have a negative effect, so the test with the pre damaged props proved one thing, that damaged props are not good to be flying around with.
Also above test was also proven not to be like others seen and props were trashed to prove point.
A simple observation here over the last 3 weeks here has shown no uncontrolled descents including old craft and new craft. What we have seen is warnings to people to change on the whole one prop rear left, but many get this warning after days of loading new FW, and not a single one pre warning has noticed any drop outs no uncontrolled descents, “none” . If we were to believe yourself and SAR we would surely see some uncontrolled descents drop outs, pre getting the warning, but it hasn’t happened yet.
In order to prove it’s bad props we are now being asked to believe that descents are not happening because people are changing props, but we have seen so many only change “so called” bad props after many flights but not one saying they had drop outs uncontrolled descents etc, yet according to both you and SAR their props are bad so aircraft should be descending uncontrollably, but their not.Dji have issued statement regarding how you store your craft in relation to props, so telling users that using bad props is both visible and bad, the warnings are on all motors, but seems only one motor is doing any warning and this includes many brand new props, so it's likely that the left rear motor is set very sensitive.
I also think that yourself and to some degree SAR have ignored that what many have said, that they have noticed their craft flying more stable and better since last FW update.
I believe the problem was much smaller than it looked, because of large debates etc it highlighted a problem that users found was everything from temperature to motors to barometres to props, I don’t think any of these were unequivocally proved or disapproved.
I think the only problem we have with props are that they are light and need to be checked, I don’t think props need to be X-rayed and I don’t believe props have invisible damage or there is bad batches out there.
I'm glad that there has been a big improvement in uncontrolled descents. It just shouldn't happen.
