Multi Rotor Drone - MR 3-Blade 9x4.5 Prop Set x2 Black – Master Airscrew
Did anyone try them yet? How is it?

I see your point!What would the benefit be? An extra blade would increase drag and reduce battery life but it will produce more thrust.
Online posts from quadcopter pilots suggest that there is really no noticible advantage but they do look cool.
Should be roughly equal load on the motor for more thrust, supposedly.2 blade 10.5 x 4.5 while 3 blade 9 x 4.5 it shall be less drag?

Let us know!I was wondering the same thing. Their website says "Upgrade your 3DR Solo with our latest 3-Blade propellers for improved performance, longer flight time and quiet operation." If they really are quieter I'm definitely going to buy a set.
You'd potentially get more thrust at the cost of battery charge used up more quickly. From the bit of searching I've done, triple blade props are better at quick response than a dual blade and less prone to noticeable vibration from the prop cutting through the air (more like a higher frequency).What would the benefit be?

I agree.I do not anticipate any meaningful or useful benefit. Possibly more responsive and snappy since there is more propeller. However, that could also be somewhat negated by the additional load on the motors, which were selected based on the characteristics of a 2-blade prop. Slinging a 3 blade prop around is quite different. May also use more battery power. It will probably eat the battery faster too. Could require different tuning, or maybe not.
I ordered a set just to see.
I think the important question is.... could you put a platform on the lawn mower and land the 3DR solo on a moving target!Thanks for posting, I even like cheap 3 blade props on mine:
What version firmware of Ardu-Mower is the lawnmower running?Thanks for posting, I even like cheap 3 blade props on mine:
Do you think they are quieter than MA 2 blades?Got mine. They are really smooth flying and quiet. Will link to a test run in a while.
Yes, that is what I am comparing them too. The power is pretty much reduced so that explains it. With a gimbal on I would have to have a very controlled situation or I would not risk it.Do you think they are quieter than MA 2 blades?
Matches what they told me as far as these being suited for unburdened Solos (non-gimbal).Yes, that is what I am comparing them too. The power is pretty much reduced so that explains it. With a gimbal on I would have to have a very controlled situation or I would not risk it.
