I've had the Air 2s for a month or two now, flown about 150 hours. The only time I've gotten the props in the shot is when I've manually angled the gimbal upward and to the left or right. And I'm a newbie to sUAV flying so I'm either lucky or it's a non-issue.

With the vents covered, how does that affect air flow and internal temperature?
