Hello guys,
Flamewheel 450 Quad with stock DJI 2212 motors and stock 30 Amp ESC's - blades making weird noise in hover but that just may be normal. Conducted a post flight inspection and noticed all four blades had the similar missing chip from blade root area. Blades have approx 10 flights or so with no crashes. I try and flex the blade & hub while watching the chips and they seem to be superficial. These are the EPP 10/45 GF blades - I know they are inexpensive but appeared "better" than the failing DJI prop's. I suspect these are Gem Fam blades since they have the initials GF. Does this look about right and what may cause this?? I think I may ground the craft till I determine if these blades are safe and if not, which ones would be better suited. The Quad is carrying a Go-Pro camera too..
