agree.. I like to find the root of the problems.. others may just switch brands... like going between Ford and Chevy.. in the USA... there are proned to be problems in any part of a products.. even in software.. sounds lame, but some times software needs to be written to take advantage of multithreads.. etc.. but hardware should be easier to gather factors that are always common.. it may be multiple common things.. but at the moment.. we have "flying, dji props.. both 8" and 10", crash.." not much to work with.. except.. like Dewster and TStrike said.. "change brands".
I have about 36 pairs of graupners, and close to 40 pairs of APC.. I have only 16 pairs of DJI's.. and I am only testing with DJI's since everyone is saying it is breaking. I have been hovering, hovering, hovering, hovering.. flying hard, flying hard, flying hard.. crash 3 times.. due to ESC bullet twitches.. .. props still has not broken. My props are dinged, twisted.. and I can still get smooth enough video on my f550/ Gopro.
but still waiting till my DJI prop breaks.. like the lottery, eventually it will. Then I will put on another set and try, try, try.. same flying pattern and hopefully it breaks around the same amount of flight time. Though it has been about 95-100 F, here.. all summer.. crazy.
then winter comes.. I have enough to see if the cold makes it go 1/3rd the flight time due to the materials shrinking factor.. thus having less flexibility... etc...
I am not saying, one person will have the data gathered, but if there is enough community input, maybe we find that batches having to go to the northern hemi tend to not last.. those users should just should just remove and sell their props to the users in the southern hemi.. etc..
but, sorry to see the prop failed at such a high, nice flight. How did the craft fair.. much break? from the video, seems like it hit everything one the way down and didn't seem to bounce very hard.
