My pure CF props are quieter...attested to by several friends who have seen the drone in action. No debate there at all. The type of blade IS relevant! My
P4P handles high winds much better than OEM props.Steadier, can hover in more wind. With the OEM props I had to cease flying in less wind. It stops faster both in the horizontal plane and the vertical. Saying that CF props aren’t better is akin to saying that fuel injection isn’t as good as carburetors. Gentlemen, we are well past the halfway point of the second decade of the 21st century...modern materials ARE better...perhaps you would prefer that DJI build their
P4P out of wood? Use rubber bands for propulsion? Perhaps we should tie the drones to a stout nylon line so they can’t get away. Where does it stop? CF blades..(real, pure CF)...buy‘em, fly’em...you will never return to fat, heavy, drag-heavy OEM blades.
BTW, I don’t race my
P4P...leave that to the fast-fingered youngsters and it is great fun to watch them do it. However, better control over the drone makes for better photography. More stable, more wind capability so I stay aloft when you have to give up due to wind thus...I get the shot and you don’t. The type of blade IS relevant to success aloft.
