I have been a bit concerned about the props on the mini when handling the MM. I am aware of the accessory DJI offers but as you probably know when applied, it won’t fit in the Flymore case. I have found a solution using “Thin Elastics” I purchased at Dollar Tree for $1.00 for a card of 36.(see pics attached). You must use the thin to be able to allow the MM to fit in the case.C0786C95-066F-4ED9-B614-3AF4588FB4BF.jpegBB74DBC7-8624-4CE1-AC2E-5E67ABFFB9DD.jpeg25305BE5-84F1-43B2-A1F7-E99871BBF03F.jpeg61C3F6B5-8A58-4559-A68C-55A4642BBD0F.jpegC0786C95-066F-4ED9-B614-3AF4588FB4BF.jpegBB74DBC7-8624-4CE1-AC2E-5E67ABFFB9DD.jpeg25305BE5-84F1-43B2-A1F7-E99871BBF03F.jpeg
 
Ah,they look good. I ordered a set and hope the fit inside the Flymore case. I don’t expect to receive them for a month or more as previous purchases from HK takes a long time.
Post when you get yours and picture them in the case. Thanks for the tip
 
I had the same concern about keeping the props in place when putting the mini back in the case.
I glued a red ribbon to the gimbal cover and glued two small pieces of foam to the ribbon to trap the props. This was then pulled to the back and fixed with a small piece of blue tak. The ribbon also reminds you to take the cover off.

Perhaps the subtle humour was lost...

This is the kind of thing I was referring to:

Good idea. I do use a small ribbon on the gimble cover but your idea is great.thanks
 
Just needs "Remove Before Flight" stencilled on it :)
And a few of these for critical parts of the mini...!

...and look up 'remove before flight' keychain and you'll find a neat gimbal cover ribbon,,, just need a touch of hot glue to attach...

Some of these suggestions are missing the point from the original post. That was to safely fit into the flymore case. For this, the props need to be held perpendicular across the under side of the body. If they move from there they risk being bent on the bump in the base of the case.
