Mavic Mini Prop Guards

[Brightspark]

Hi

after doing a bit of research people are saying the MM propellers can be damaged in transit even like me using the fly more combo case. Does anyone have experience or knowledge in the best guards to buy in uk for this.

thanks

the main issue with most of the prop holders that are available is that they will prevent the drone from fitting in the flymore case as they fit over the motors and prevent the drone from fitting in the case,the other issue is the way the case is constructed ,it is not like the foam that can be enlarged in a lot of cases, but is a moulded plastic covered in a flock like coating and if you try to cut into it it loses its strength and shape, i ended up purchasing a hard case with a foam insert that i was able to modify ,so i could use the neoprene type that go from motor to motor,and keep the props safe

I really like the combo case would just love something that works to go with it. Saw someone in the states who used a 3D printer for this and could still use the original case rather than buying something else and was the same type guards @TruGreen has suggested.

fits fine in the combo case. i have a pic posted showing that. the only thing is its a snug fit. so when i remove the drone the bottom prop cover stays in the case. which really aint that bad

I use the same, but when I get the Mini out of the case the prop guard remains in the case, because it's stuck there. So I'm afraid that it will harm the motors of the Mini.
