Question on the typhoon H has anyone used aftermarket propellers?

It's a little bit like dating an ugly girl. If you do it, you don't tell anybody. And you hope nothing breaks.

Here is one thread when a search is performed on “typhoon h propellers.”

Good discussion on reason to stay true.

Catmandu, don't try to save a few bucks on cheap props!

I have Maytech CF props and love them.

If you crash how much is it going to cost replacing your drone/parts? ?Purchasing OEM props!?

Personally I’ve never dated an ugly girl. Woke up with quite a few though.

The phrase: 'Don't look at the mantle piece when you are poking the fire' comes to mind.

I have not crashed nor put myself in a place where it’s possible so I will take the risk as I’ve got lots of parts and can break down and rebuild a 480 in a good afternoon. I do completely trust the 480 now as I know all it’s quirks.

Aftermarket props generally fall into two categories. "UpGrade" quality, and the "Save a few bucks" garden variety. Very different stories between the two. I believe you went the "Upgrade" route. The clowning around in this thread is aimed at the "Save a few bucks" version. Join in and have some fun.

You have not put it in a place where it's possible to crash, then you haven't taken off then? Dispite how careful or experienced we are, electronics or outside influence could cause a crash, yes you have a compliment of spares to rectify.

Hi Fred Garvin,
There is no such thing as an ugly WOMAN AFTER 3 AM. Johnno Hennessy.

Just close your eyes and let her be whatever you want her to be.

I did.
They worked fine but for one or the other reason they’re very noisy.

I purchased aftermarket red propellers to use for the front, but had two incidents where they sheared off. The first time was due to high wind gusts. The second time one of my students was flying with the highest proportional rate slider setting. There won't be a third time.

You can't be serious when you blame " high wind gusts" and "flying with the highest proportional rate slider setting" for the prop to brake??? The reason is lousy quality.

 

[PatR]

Perhaps those were just condition samples to illustrate why stock propellers are superior?
