I noticed that the tip of the rear arms propellers were folded (kneaded) after pulling out of the case after my first flight using the new propellers on the Mavic Pro.
The tip of the propellers is kneading due to the metal landing piece
Does anyone had same issue?

Thanks, I'll try that.

No, I always tuck propellers inside rear landing gear.

Yup..am still wondering why although i never had a crash. you're not alone bro.

Great tip.  just had mine for a few days.  They are still good though, no scrapes or anything.  Will start putting them on the inside now.  

I just remove my props every time before storage

I reckon that's the thing to do as that was how they were shipped from the factory!

I’ve started removing mine too. The winglet tips are very thin and easily bend - you’ll get drift issues etc if they break plus I always check the props are secure anyway before every take off.

I know.... it's kind of anoying to have to remove and place the propellers everytime you fly. I choose Mavic Pro instead Phantom because it is more practical. I'm considering going back to original MP propellers. Let's see...

I'm definitely keeping the 8331's as I have the MPP and the old props would defeat the main reason for getting the MPP for me but I see your point.

Have used the new 8331 props since they came to the market. Have not experienced any problems with broken/bent ends even though mine always lies on the outside of the rear landing gear. But it's probably a question of how people take the machine with their hands.
