how come 2 weeks ago propellers at best buy were 4 dollars for 2 ? now they are 22 for 2 ? sounds like i bought this drone at the wrong time....... love the drone but the company surrounding it has nothing for the drone and not much support !!!
where do you guys get your props??Hell of a deal!!!
Solo is my go-to drone now no video lag or glitchy which DJI said was because of my device might be true but no probs with soloandgopro I have less money in GoPro and solo than I do in my phantom 3 which is useless in FPV
Does suck best buy sold out of props guess I should of bought more when I seen them on the shelf there is another company that makes them in 11 inch I read they are good
Research is best-served prior to purchase. You've got to figure that if a $2K drone package is now $300, there has to be a reason. 3DR support is dwindling and will be totally gone... sooner, than later. Factory parts will become more scarce, though 3rd-party suppliers will keep Solo flying. As Solo gets longer in the tooth, it will require more and more hacking and tinkering. For many of us here, that works for us. If it ain't your thing, you nay be living on borrowed time....... love the drone but the company surrounding it has nothing for the drone and not much support !!!
I guess one quick and easy test would be to take them out on a calm day and fly each set of props in a hover for a couple minutes quickly back to back. Check the Tlogs for wattage drawn. Wattage, being a larger number would be easier to detect small differences over amperage.Decided to try out my MA props even though its dark outside. A reprieve from the rains here so I put a battery through the props.
They are quieter. This little solo handles the wind like a champ. The clouds were flying by overhead.
I don't have enough time on the stock props and these MA props to say if one has more performance than the other or if one is more efficient, but that will come with time.
Perhaps this weekend I can do some rough timing of a flight with the MA's and a flight with the stock props to see if there is any indication of a slightly longer or shorter flight time either way.
stay tuned.
Gotta love the mRO gps too. Congested area with houses, hills and lots of tree's and I start out with 13 sats pretty quickly.
I can't get my other Solo with a Rev B to get a low enough HDOP to fly in the same driveway location that the mRO works like a champ at.
I think I am going to order up a couple more sets of the MA props just for spares and to tuck them away before they become unobtainium.
Plus one for these propellers. I can tell the flight is smoother and quieter. I even managed to crash (lost signal? Flying low under a bridge...) into concrete column, anyway they held up well and didn't shatter. Even with scratches and minor chips on the tips the bird still flew well after a quick checkup.Master airscrew
Set of 4 $17.99
I have not need to use them yet but read they fly nice so bought some
