Anyone use these? I have a set of the snap-on prop guards and to me they're just too heavy and practically unuseable. I'm wondering if the DJI guards are lighter and using them with these mounts is a better solution.

I have had them on with $5 china guards for last month.  work ok but absolutely NOT worth the price.  they seem to make them in a 3d printer out of VERY  brittle plastic that snaps at least 1 tab off each time you install them.  both pairs have been replaced free once.  I will keep using them tho since I dont have any others made of decent plastic.

The Summitlink prop guards are detachable and work well:

I use the Summitlink guards and they are sturdy, give good prop protection and are easy to install and remove. Well worth the cost.

And they look really cool after you give em the RIT dye treatment.


I bought the red and white set so I didn't have to dye mine. It does make it more visible and give better orientation

Summit link are the ones I just got as well.  They were advertised as a bit lighter, but haven't actually weighed them. I got orange and black.

Summit is what I have also. Easy on and off. Don't have to worry about a bigger case to lug around. I fly with them on always, never any problems. I fly around lots of trees and take off and land on grass and uneven areas a lot so no worries about breaking props!

These are the ones I have. Except Ive broken a couple guards and you can get the replacement guards seperate for around 10.00 each without buying another complete kit.

I use them.  First set ordered, received and I broke a pin on first attempt - called Hellidirect and they sent a second set to me with just a pic showing what happened.   Great customer service with that vendor.

Why did I choose them?  Don't have to mount any tabs to bottom of motor....  Guards mount to the Quick release mounts, which with pins attach to bottom of motor arm.  Remove them - stock P2V+

Since I figured out how to attach and detach I haven't broke a pin yet.   For now I'll keep them.
