Dear Pilots,

Does anyone have carbon fiber propellors for your phantom 3 standard?

I am thinking of buying one and need your opinion

Hello, i have purchased some myself for my Phantom 3 Standard and they have some pros and cons, First:

They are much stronger then stock propellers and allow you to cut through stronger winds due to less flex in propellers
But the aircraft will shake in the wind a lot more making video jittery
they can be illegal in some countries and states, its fine here in the UK but i'm not sure about some states.

considering what i've said i do recommend them but not as main propellers, always keep some stock ones with you.

ebay link (where i got mine)
hope i helped.

wow, thank you so much for detailed opinion!

you mentioned about jello effect when using the carbon fiber propeller- how bad was it if you don't mind me asking?

Well it depends on the current amount of wind but it's not bad at all will only affect it when moving but if you're hovering it will rarely show any jittering.

A little searching will find the answers drom the many times this has been asked before.

You'll also find that despite the fashion appeal of carbon fibre, that CF props won't do anything more for you than the stock props.

A friend of mine has a set on his P3S and he likes them better than the stock props.  He got them from Best Buy.  

Sorry guys, I think i need to clarify, how is "DJI original carbon fiber props" i believe there are many OEM 3rd party props , but I am wondering about the actual DJI one

I'm surprised there are no wooden props for the phantom series...

Got wood!! ;-)

The search function here can be daunting... ;-)

Sure use it, but don't expect it to be fully helpful.
