No plates and screws used. Just snap on. Has anyone tried these?

Anyone tried these unique prop guards?

I wouldn't bother as....
a/ you'll never hit anything that lightly
b/ outdoors they act like sails and upset the stabilisation of the AC.

Just my opinion but I would have to respectfully disagree. IF I used guards I would use these for ease of attaching. Also, the plastic is probably better than what DJI uses and would help to hold the frame together around the motors and maybe prevent cracks.
I'll probably get a set just to have, the problem is I might not use them enough to justify the cost.

Everyone to their own - but I'd prefer to use the detachable slide-in prop guards which have a plastic mounting plate which remains on the drone when you remove them. I feel that also provides good reinforcement to the arm and mountings.
Equally, like sonof40, I don't use prop guards now, although when I was a newbie I somehow thought they were a good idea, as they still are for some people.
As regards whether the plastic is better or worse than the dji-produced stuff.... who knows?
3D printing plastic? Are you serious? And you really think they'll help reinforce the shell? Sheesh.... Yeah, go ahead and get a set, just to have....
