Overly tight props on P4Pv2

[Old Geezer]

I recently saw a thread about props being overly tight on new P4Pv2's. I bought a new P4Pv2 at the end of March and after my first 10 minutes of flying, I was unable to remove the props. They were difficult to get on and I tried several props thinking that they were the problem. Fearing I might harm something by going to far to get the props off, I shipped the drone to DroneNerds in Florida for repair. The problem was bad Quick Release Prop base plates. They had a hard time getting the props off, but once they replaced the prop base plate / locks, every prop went on and came off like they should. The part number that they replaced mine with were: Phantom 4 9450s Quick Release Prop Base CW CP.PT.S00034/CCW CP.PT.S00023. If you look for them online, they will come in packs of 2 or 4 sets.

Yep, if hard to remove V2 props, replace with P4P prop mounts, Amazon. Use on P4 also as upgrade. Fixes both.

Ditto, same with my new P4Pv2, but the old P4Pa+ the props almost jump off. Have ordered the prop mounts before i fly this one.

I replaced mine with the master airscrew props. They come with replacement screw on mounts instead of those stupid dji ones. Not only are they quieter, but are also more efficient. I live by the sea and often fly out a couple of km. It makes a big difference when flying in sport mode at 75km/hr
