I just installed my master airscrew orange props(got the red too) on the drone. These are so cool. much quieter and great looking. Here is the issue: while in sport mode and 3ft off the ground trying to keep low the road, the drone was lifting up as though the sensors were causing it to lift . After I put the new props on, I decided to calibrate the imu and the compass. This did not happen with the stock props. Did I make a mistake with these props? What is causing this?

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out and we're sorry for the trouble. Can you please confirm if this issue still occurs even if you are flying beyond or as much higher than 3ft? In addition, since this propeller is a 3rd party accessory, we cannot guarantee the stability of this said propeller when used with the said unit. Thank you for your understanding and support!

Since no-one knows what you saw or has any data about it, no-one can answer your question.
But simply changing the props shouldn't give "too much lift" as everything is microprocessor controlled.
If you swapped to props of a different pitch, the flight controller would automatically adjust motor revs to keep performance within specs.

Easy enough...Just swap the OEM props and try again. When you are that close to the ground the optical sensors on the bottom, which can't be shut-off, are going to be affecting the positioning ( thinking it's landing ) and not let it go down. Also, there is a lot of prop effect at those levels which can cause weird turbulence.

This is really funny to me, so a 3rd party prop doesn't void your warranty but the use of a 3rd party app does. Keep it up DJI

Thanks for your input on the forum. DJI should strongly consider making you an administrator.

Sorry for the confusion. Both 3rd party app and 3rd party accessories can void a warranty if this is the cause of an incident. Hope this clarifies your query. Thank you!

Let be known that DJI mods might actually be human instead of copy paste machines, thank you for clearing that up as I'm use to the Copy Paste from other mods about anytime anyone mentions litchi. Here is a discussion of a real change to the drone and their was no mention of it which seemed really odd that a prop, a physical change in the drones performance didn't warrant a note about warranty.
