I get phantom sensor activations even on normal flight at 400ft above the beach or ocean. Low sun angle seems to trigger it.

Isnt going to happen. Its intended for commercial drone use and along specific corridors. UK and i suspect most countries, for very good reasons are never going to certify recreational drones for BVLOS. Until they all come fitted with active and passive detect and avoid, propulsion redundancy...

Catching isnt the issue, its they seem to get hit inwards and up and over the notch where they're supposed to sit which bends the tips in exactly the place they're snapping. I need something to hold the in the notch and stop them going inwards more than anything.

Just had another one go, the orange tip pulling away from the black plastic. Again on the front. So ive not used a single spare prop in my Mavic 1,2 Pro or Mini 3 flymore kits ever. Just sat in the cupboard for years. In 4 weeks of flying the Air3s ive used all the flymore prop options, all...

Cant see how that stops them being pushed up and over though

DJIs problem now is Aeroscope isnt the only game in town. Since it got reverse engineered and they were shown to have lied (again) about encryption, or lack of, there are plenty of third party systems to decode, receive and spoof DJI Drone ID broadcasts. You can build your own ESP32 based...

Not DJIs fault. Theyre using an old, established industry standard protocol and file type. If someones computer or poor choice of NLE wont support it, thats not DJIs problem. They have to squeeze a ton of data into the stream. There are only so many ways to do that.

Kites are basically barrage balloons for drones. Hazards are obviously the very long invisible strings from the kite to the ground, sometimes 100s of metres in length. Catch a prop on that and goodbye drone. Sensors wont detect it, camera wont see it, your eyes wont see it. The strings will...

https://www.enaire.es/services/drones/ENAIRE_Drones_gb has it all in English.

Do NOT use Drone Assist outside the UK. Its not designed for it and is not accurate. Always use the official site. In this case ENAIRE Drones Spain is very restrictive in where you can fly and privacy rules on top. An EASA ID is also required. But really, Drone Assist should not be used...

Ive tried a rubber band, it pushes the props out of the notch onto the top (i use a rubber band on all my other drones). A hard case isnt really practical as it takes up even more dead space in a backpack and so on

Not really, they were brought in by the manufacturer due to government (plural) rulings to meet those, each iteration of the series stays within that. Its where a huge chunk of their global market is. The wont suddenly stop producing good under 250g drones as they'll remove a large part of that...

Is anyone else having issues with seemingly very fragile props on the Air3s ? I've had mine a few weeks now, only ever carried in the Fly More bag and have 2 props (both on the front) shear in this way, seemingly on the ground and in transit. The tips seem wafer thin and very easy to tear...

Mini 4 Pro. Because its under 250g so can be flown in many more places globally. Yes you sacrifice camera quality but it can fly places a heavier one cant.

Real world? Sub 250g is far less restrictive to use in most countries and as a visitor to many countries is the only option you can use as registration of over 250g is often restricted to nationals OR involves long, hard or near impossible paperwork and time.
