I would like to find the degree on angle of the motors on the Phantom 3 Pro. The motors do not set on a flat horzional plane, it looks to me like one side of the motor mounting surface is .030 higher then the other. I do not know the degrees the motor is off vertical plumb. This is hard to explain, hope someone understands what I am looking for. Thanks

The motors do not sit 'level', or 'plumb' by design by DJI.
Yes, that is what I determined using a mini square and a dial vernier caliper. All four legs have the same degree of tilt. Thanks for your help.
Angles designed for stability.
That is what I was thinking but I could not find it in printed word anywhere. Thanks
I have a damaged Phantom 3 Pro I bought that way, that needs a new base or bottom shell. So Instead of buying a shell I am going to use carbon fiber or fiberglass sheet to fab one. Therefore I need the angles for mounting the motors. After a lot of checking I have come up with .030 shim on two of the mounting holes, this gives me the angle I need, I hope. When I get the drone complete I will report back good or bad.
