Info about the GWS 4530 tail prop
Something I've noticed about the orange direct drive tail prop used on the GWS Mini Dragonfly V2 is that it is 5 times more fragile than the black version of the same prop.
Had the black one initially and it handled many impacts without shattering. Ordered the orange one this week and have gone through two already. The slightest impact and they shatter all over the place. Seems to be a lighter but more brittle form of plastic.
If you find yourself ordering an EP4530 get the black one not the orange one....unless you are a good pilot who avoids tail impacts with objects.
