    P4 loss one prop after 5 minute flight, dropped 40 feet to ground

    Yeah I'm confused by many of these responses. They must be to a different thread or a video I can't see. Those bolts have never been touched by me, this thing was basically brand new (6 days old with only 10-15 flights) So you guys are chasing down a rabbit hole that just isn't there. I...

    Not used, brand new. No messing with the bolts. I'm looking for others that have had experience with the RMA process, or had issues with these new fasteners.

    P4 loss one prop after 5 minute flight, dropped 40 feet to ground

    You are looking at a device that dropped 40 feet from the air and (partially) landed on that bracket. it was filled with dirt 10 seconds before I took the photo. This device was 6 days old, and a wrench had never touched it. Mostly in that photo you are just seeing dust because I didn't wipe...

    P4 loss one prop after 5 minute flight, dropped 40 feet to ground

    I am trying to RMA it...but why should I not discuss the issue on a forum? I don't see how that has any bearing.

    How do I know this was the bracket? because there was dirt in here, before I just blew it out...the other three brackets still had props on.

    P4 loss one prop after 5 minute flight, dropped 40 feet to ground

    P4 is less than 7 days old. No damage what so ever on prop locks. Not sure how I can install them incorrectly, it is such a simple operation.

    P4 loss one prop after 5 minute flight, dropped 40 feet to ground

    Yes, I just put them on before the flight. I inspected as I always do, I could not pull any of them off with my hands, with the p4, it's a pretty simple click to get them on. The P4 flew for close to 5 minutes if not more, before this occurred. I'll inspect my video when I'm back at my house.

    Drone falls out of the sky onto woman's head

    My phantom popped a prop yesterday and fell like a rock out of the sky. It didn't hit a thing, battery was almost full, i was simply coming in for a landing. Weather was clear, and very little to no wind. I don't trust it now at all.

    P4 loss one prop after 5 minute flight, dropped 40 feet to ground

    I bought my P4 just last week. I've maybe had 20 flights, I'm taking it all very slow. I fly high, and far over big forests. I'm very nervous about hitting things, since I'm still beginning, so I don't go near anything. On my flight yesterday, coming back after flying for maybe 5 minutes...

    I'm in Dillon, CO as well. Did you ever find a group of pilots? Very new to this game, but I'll be out getting photos/videos often if you are interested in getting into the back country.
