Careful ladies and gents. I just received prop guards and quickly found out they are for the phantom 2 only although their ad states they fit the 3. The screws are too short. I then went back to the posting and realized all the reviews are fake. Looks like the dude is trying to ride the massive influx of phantom 3 orders. I feel like a moron. Anyhow, the link to the ad is below. Stay away.

Don't feel like a moron...Amazon usually don't let these things pass through and when we order from them..(usually) we are getting what we paid for. Did they make things right?

Gonna return tomorrow. $10 is not that big of a headache after the hundreds I spent on this thing already but I could def do without the wasted time.

I advise not over torquing the screws. Either use special loctite for plastic or religiously check screws every day b4 flight.
I chk mine every night after I come back from flying the p3

Nail polish would work, I've used it many times on other projects, my concern is on these little screws, would the come off easily? I purchased Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate on Amazon.
But Gary knows what he is talking about so if he said nail polish then I would be ok using it

Nail polish could "melt" the plastic and make it hard to reuse the hole a second time.

FYI:
i actually went and  put some on a broken landing gear and it didnt melt it, now i assume they would be of same type of plastic!!

These are the ones that I ordered.  They use 4 of the screws instead of just two.  I had purchased a set of the ones with two screws...but never installed them.  Decided to got with the better ones and the fact that they are quick release.

Use Loctite 425 Blue for screw locking in plastic.
