I thought the same also.I have a sneaky suspicion that the manufacturing of the new motors is cheaper and more "cost friendly" for DJI than the old ones. Just sayin'....

Please let us know if you noticed any "real" difference? Are they quieter, faster, more efficient, etc?Just popped into Maplin, got my P3P exchanged for the newer motor version P3P.
Can't wait to test it tomorrow.
2nd time they exchanged without a question being asked, showed them the new motors and checked stock and all P3P they have has new motors except 1 with the old motors.
Overall very happy with Maplin.
Those are some cool drones you have there George!I thought the same also.

Old Motors vs. New Ones | DJI Phantom Forum,Getting ready to get a p3p
What are the differences between the old style motors and the new
i will probably buy one of them too.Don't worry, all of you P3P people with new motors (myself included) will be outdated when the P4 comes out soon!

Actually, people have reported old motors in new boxes so be careful. For what its worth, I just got a new P3P with new motors and it had the updated box with new motors.
Some have found otherwise. Long distance fliers with battery mods are getting up to 5 minutes more flight times with the new motors. 33 minutes v. 28 minutes. YMMV.Marketing suggesting improved performance.
However you'll notice no improvement in performance or flight time.
Either is just as good.
Which is the new one and the old one in the picture?...
Loudness during lifting comes not from the motors, that's aero dynamic noise of air churning through propsMy P3 has the new motors, I was able to compare them to a P3 with old motors at an AC park.. The new motors look smaller and not as beefy, almost fragile looking. Also I think they are quieter at idle than the old motors, but just as loud when lifting off and ascending.. I dont think there is any difference in performance
