I installed them on my phantom 3 pro. I took off and went maybe 50' up hoverd for a minute I didn't like the way it was handling and started to land. Then I got a warning that I lost GPS signal and upon landing she bounced a couple times and flipped over. So I'm just throwing a caution about using those propellers. I'm not saying that was the cause. But I never had a warning on looseing my GPS signal while owning my p3.

Adding things to Drone props is a No No.....and it could have been a shielded area that caused you to loose the GPS signal.....Good Luck in the future.
What powers the LEDs? Do you have a link?
If it’s USB I get the picture. Just had a look on eBay. Wow. No way I would fly with them. Stick to the stockprops and get yourself some fairy lights if you need pretty colours.

maybe the batterys are on the tips too !.......Geeee HOPE not that would be goofy !
Yip definitely a novelty item ,don't run risk of failure for the sake of 10 or 20 $$$
Lol fairy lights. That's what my girlfriend said. Lol. Yes there is a mini usb charging port on top with a little on off switch. My p3 pro did not like them attached while flying what so ever. Back to my girlfriend she was watching when it flipped over and her words were YOUR STUPID AND THOSE ARE STUPID. Lol again. She wants to drill a hole thru them and attach them to my dashboard and put a rainbow sticker on my rear window. Lol
I’m sure your GF doesn’t really think your stupid.... was worth a try... Id save them for the girl guides cup cake stall and stick to the OEM as your daily flyers. It’s hard enough to make a prop balanced as it is without adding a LiPO and electronics to it.

Putting anything on props you completely distort the flying capabilities of drone so you are lucky that yours is still in one piece!

Rotor balance is such a delicate affair that full-size rotor blades are balanced with tape. I can’t imagine attaching something hard that also disrupts the airflow. Yikes.
