Is it a good idea to change props from time to time? Will the props weaken over time? And if so, how many flights between changing the props out? Thanks in advance.
They should be fine over time if you take care of them.Will the props weaken over time?
On my Mavic Pro Platinum I still have the original set of props on it. I've had it 82 weeks now.
It's got:
793 flights
109hrs 43min 34sec total air time
2,395,653ft traveled
If they look good, feel good, perform well then no need to replace them IMHO.
That’s good info you’re providing. Thanks!
For no better reason beyond ignorance, I have changed them every 300 miles under the observation their joints at the pins get a little sloppy, thus inducing an irrational human fear and panic. But I’ve never heard of a prop coming apart. Just doing my part to keep DJI in business.
The difference is that props don't need to be changed routinely like oil. They need to be changed when they are damaged.I'm not sure how often I'll change my props, maybe 1 or 2 times a year depending on much I fly, But with something that flies around in the air that cost me much $s hopefully before they fail.
