Sounds like RC quadcopters society -- everyone knows DJI, but they make fan guards a part of the frame. Guards and props are the most fragile parts, a consumable really. Something an enthusiast often carry spares for, to quickly swap on the field for any other RC quad, but with DJI you need what, send the whole frame to factory?


I have DJI drone, broke prop maybe once, replaced in few minutes. Prop guards work as intended.

I did once got it into iron sand which seized the motors. Luckily their insurance covered full replacement.

There are much worse things about them like subpar performance or shitty way to access the card slot in Avata, but otherwise they solid.


I mean prop guards -- what do you do when a prop guard breaks?


IDK what sort of guards you speak off but I don’t think it’s possible to do so on my avata. I did smash it pretty hard few times.
