Carbon Fiber ID and Tip Chips?

[kimpanattoni]

Heya everyone, Kim here:

I was wondering as I read all of the Carbon Fibre prop threads... My roomie's MP Platinum came with a set of what appear to be CF props, but I am not certain now as I read about all of the wraps and other misnomers regarding CF. I am posting this particular question because I would like to know how to tell the difference. I am not sure what brand these are as there were no packages or sleeves. In the centre of the props, there is the letter "B" on all four sides. There are no markings other than that. The photos here show a wide shot, then the front of a tip and the backside of it -both on the front. Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

-Kim

Because of the chips and such? Likely. As for their being actual CF, I was watching the video Nick Corona posted, and as he talks about the traits, he is comparing rigidity. These are definitely far more rigid than the 8330 props. I know that these are not 3-blades, but in discerning the type, I am wondering if I have guessed correctly...?

Chips, yes. And them being carbon fiber.(they are not wrapped)
As far as the Nick thing goes, sorry, I’m not a fan.

lol, not worried about one test if it is not peer confirmed and what not. I know nothing of Nick, really, I was just making a reference.

Best to just find either the original props or the low noise set.

Yeah, I have the official low noise for my own drone. I recommended them to my roomie.

It's a popular propeller brand

To some. But not all. They do have a stupendous advertising budget.

I wasn't recommending them. Everyone doesn't have to like something for it to be popular.

I didn’t get the impression that you were. I was merely providing information.
