I don't think it can all be attributed to DJI and the new fly more cases, i have the newer version of the flymore combo case and i have not once had this issue of the props getting bent, especially in this new case, however i can see the older cases causing an issue where the block at bottom where the mini sits is quite large, so maybe in some cases if the props open up a little and get stored that way maybe then it could cause some issues, maybe, also i wonder how many people stored them away for awhile and actually left something heavy on top, it is quite possible.
This is the case i am currently using below in the images, as you can see the block is only about an inch and doesn't cover the whole bottom area like in some of the older cases, i was on about this to a guy on YouTube about 3 maybe 4 ish months ago, they was on about the same issue until i said that it could be a case of where you get the flymore combo from, i got mine from Amazon, but a few in the comments with issues had bought them from other online retailers so i was wondering, has these online retailers that they got them from using the old stock flymore combo's with the faulty cases, id say more than likely.
That's interesting. There are two differences.
First, they've reversed the diagram. Now the diagram shows the right side blades bent to fit under the left side blades. In the new diagram the right side blades are positioned fit between the body of the Mini and the left-side blades.
Second, they've removed the block out of the bottom of the case which previously supported the belly of the Mini. Without that support you now have the full weight of the Mini resting on the tips of the rear blades folded under the body of the Mini. That's even worse than the original case!
The ONLY advantage of this new design is that it provides more room to NOT position the blades as shown in the diagram. You should NEVER position the rear blades placed laterally folded together across the body of the Mini. Because of the way the rear motors are mounted at an angle, canted outwards, when turned inboard the tips of the rear blades hang well below the body of the Mini. Setting it down into the case with the blades in this position will obviously force the blades to bend.
Ideally, you should have the rear blades positioned longitudinally down the sides of the Mini. Try it yourself while setting the Mini down on a tabletop with its arms folded. With the rear blades folded laterally across the body they will bend. With the blades turned longitudinally down the sides of the Mini, the weight of the Mini rests on the motors instead without bending the blades.
This will bend the blades!
