    Crash landing

    I do have prop guards(now), but drone still topples over on a smooth landing pad (3 foot wooden disk). I am using the proper shut down techniques, left control down fully for approx. 3-5 seconds. Mostly, now, I just catch and hold.

    Crash landing

    When I manually land my p3s, as soon as it has landed and I manually shut down the motors, the a/c topples over on its side. I have lost a few props in this scenario. Any ideas, Please?

    OK, I see your point, however, I installed it that way so that the edge of the camera lens touches the protector and not the ground. Thx

    The cable ties are sturdy and if you cut them the same is.length, and adjust them on the aircraft before finally tightening the holding ties, it seems to work. Good luck to all who try this. Safe flying, cheers

    I took 2 ft cable ties and doubled them and used smaller cable ties to fasten. Performed well on several flights and landings. Cheers Sent from my SM-T350 using PhantomPilots mobile app
