New p3p has wonky motors

Phantom George · Dec 12, 2015

The motors are angled to help prevent a rotational propeller wash when decending thus help to prevent loosing the lift of the propellers (stalling).

This could be another reason why people have cracked shell on the revised version of P3. They thought the motors are crooked so they tried to straighten them with force, causing the cracks

Pure speculation!!!

No, I have conducted a thorough double-blinded randomized study on it. No, really.

You can try Plast-Aid on yourself, because DJI is certainly not going to cover you, humpty-dumpty

Not correct. The tilt is ONLY to move the prop wash away from the quadcopter. This reduces the chance of a "Vortex Ring State" when descending straight down.
Wikipedia has a good explanation of this: Vortex ring state - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Also called "setling with power". Well known by all helikopter pilots
