After some looking around, I heard the shell cracks might be caused by over torqued screws. The motor vibrations act as the final straw to the amount of stress caused by the torque. There are some Phantom flyers who loosen all the screws and tighten them back up, only finger tight this time (some posted videos on YouTube). Not sure if that really helps, but its certainly worth a try. There's also and after market mod called "Strong Arm" that supposedly strengthens the structure. In the end, I think it's mostly luck of the draw. Some fly their drones for hours on end, and don't develop any problems. Then you got people like me, who gets cracks within an hour of flying. B&H said they'll replace my drone with an estimated turn around time of 1 week. Can't wait for my new new drone. |
