Hey all,

I'm pretty new to the drone world...With that said, I made the stupid all too common mistake of landing and having my drone lean one way and hit the dirt. The propellers were still spinning when it tipped over.

My question is, should I automatically be changing the props on that side now? Now that they have "hit the dirt" while spinning is that automatic cause for replacement? I cleaned them up, and they don't look chewed up but I don't want to keep using them if I shouldn't.

Thanks for the help.

You should replace the props whenever they are visually damaged. Props are cheap and it's not worth risking your entire aircraft when they are damaged.

OK, thanks. I looked at them and cleaned them up (the dirt and grass off them). They don't seem damaged..But better safe then sorry I guess. Thanks for the help.
