[QUOTE="s2 Web Parrot, post: 41199, member: 5008"] I type this with a smile :-) ... yes, I'd be honest! No snark or cynicism intended. But given that I wouldn't fly with non-OEM in the first place, I wouldn't have to make that decision ( again, with the smile ! ) Look, there are design engineers out there (somewhere) who "spec" parts for their products because they have tested, with confidence various elements that perform to specifications. For example, if a 5mm "machine hardened" bolt, recommended because of the determined stress on a design to prevent failure, replacing it with a cheaper, non-hardened version would introduce risk. Failure may never happen, but "risk" of failure was introduced when spec wasn't followed. The posters who decide to use non-OEM props are certainly within their right to do so. Props fail...even the OEM ones. When you submit a claim to DJI they will likely ask for flight logs and pictures of failed components (if relevant). I'd rather be sending the damaged OEM stuff. :-) [/QUOTE]
