After flying the mini 2 I wiped off the propellers, as I do after the last flight. I felt some roughness on one of the blades, and wondered what I nicked it on, but then I felt all the other blades, and all had roughness on the leading edge near the mount. Took it all into the house, took a magnifying glass and looked at the blades. On each was: " DJI 4726 RPM."
so it was nothing I had done - whew But I thought since I had some spare blades I would change them and see what kind of a job it was. One word of warning, when you handle the small envelopes with the blades and screws, they are slippery, and once you open the end, things will slip out very quickly, if you tilt it even slightly. I had to retrieve some screws and blades from the floor. Two of the screws on two blades were in VERY tight, and I had to watch how mush pressure I was applying with my hand on the rotor of the motor, by really putting quite some pressure on the screw driver and holding the rotor tightly, I slowly nudged the screws out. All the other screws were tight to break free to unscrew, but then they came nicely.
When putting the new blades on you have to position the screw into the hole while holding the rotor of the motor, it does take some doing, but not real hard.
I have yet to fly it and see how these new ones do.
Thought some might be interested.
