So I see on DJI's website they have new propellers for the propeller cage. Do these have any flight characteristics or performance changes with the mavic or are they just made so the mavic can fly with a prop cage on?

Any link to those? All I see in the DJI store are just basic propellers.
 
Same foldable propellers it's possible the angles are different. No link yet for the spares.

Found it in the app! Yeah they work with or without the propeller cage. Something about the cage required a different propeller. My guess is the regular propellers perform better.

But the regular propellers won't work with the cage.

Regular propellers still for sale.

Figured it out. Notice how close the propellers are to the Mavics body. The cage needs room. So gurantee these are shorter. Run the regular unless you have the cage.

Notice the numbers?
7728 is 7.7" diameter and 2.8" pitch where stock is 8330 being 8.3" diameter and 3" pitch

I'm guessing the motors will be at higher rpm with the cage to achieve the same lift

what would happen with using the 7.7 without the cage?
