Hey everyone,

What is the average llfe of the well maintained props and when do people change them out for new ones during normal use (excluding things damage or chipping or crashes)

Cheers

Don't hit things with them and they'll last a very long time.

Mine got 30 to40 flights. Little dirty but look fine no damage to the threads

Mine got 50 to 60 flights. Little dirty but look fine no damage to the threads. In a little under a year this is only my second set. . The first set really wasnt bad they worked fine but I did a CRC right after it landed when I first got it I was used to my cc3d controlled machines or that would stop it dead in its tracks,  it tipped a little and scuffed a couple blades.
I flew for a bit but just wanted to have nice clean blades on it so I change them and kept them for spares..

What is a CRC? Thinking that you likely meant CSC.

Yes, that has been the danger point for a lot of new Phantom 3 pilots.
When the drone lands and they forgot to simply pull the left stick back and hold it down for thee seconds or so.

Such an innocent mistake, lucky it was only scuffed or broken props.

That's really good. Sounds like they will last a long time so! Thanks.
