Just tried mine out, work great.

I often fly at lakes, and every lake has a cell/radio tower. I stay away from those like the plague, thinking it will interfere with my connection to the drone. You don't worry about that?

Forgot to mention, Gimble resets again during this flight and it definitely takes longer to recover after core board change (~20-30 sec. vs. ~10 before) also skip file (74 -> 76 - 75 missing )

I'm still using the props that came with my fly more combo from December 2016 but when I need new props I may consider trying some of these out

I heard somewhere that props like any other plastic thing, grow old especially in the sun, so You might consider changing them, just in case

That´s a severely cool tower with lot´s of cool stuff mounted and a really nice view also! I have the silent props but cannot use the due to vibrations. Need the latest firmware and I´m just not ready to update yet!

Might be I am lucky -  I both set, used it (with FW .0900), crash them in a low after a month (luckily Mavic survived), both fake set (from Amazon ), fly with No problems, but noticed them hitting body of Mavic, both second set originals and have No problems already 2 months and several hundred km.

They were from the DJI store. I read up a bit, seems they stabilise after some more flying. I won´t give up on them yet

Sorry mate - that wasn't a question but an agreement - 'they do make a noticeable difference' rather than 'do they make a noticeable difference?' Yes, they do LOL (and more so on the platinum)

Looking good on 4k monitor. I had also the org. from DJI, but don't use it any more. I had a little vibration in the footage

They are definitely quieter than the original props.
