After reporting the trembling in the arms of motors during take off and landing last week,which happened shortly after updating to latest fw, i inspected the drone close up and
I was suprised that i noticed small hairline cracks in the partition in the left front engine arm airvent and also the right back engine arm airvent partition.
I bought it at local shop and went back with the drone , they made a report and sent it to dji repair centre.
I told the shop, since i bought the p4p july last year, the drone till now always was flying fantastic and never had problems,never had a crash,never hardlanding, always smooth.
Also noticed no irreggularity during flights. So maybe it isnt that bad, but just to be sure ,the cracks won,t expand and maybe suddenly comes down , i brought it back.
I am not sure what is causing the cracks and the man in the shop told me , that it could be that cold and the warmth, tempature changes, can cause the cracks.
As this happened within the year the shop was pretty sure its still under waranty.
Anyway its also possible that the new firmware can cause it , i am not sure, but maybe engineers can investigate and do some more tests with the new fw.
Before .602 was much better than the current one.
I definately will downgrade as soon as i get the repaired drone back.
Meanwhile i suggest the p4p users to inspect the drone ,especially at the arms and vents and arm ends near engines.
Now hoping they succesfully can repair it ( and under warranty)
