Another quality Autel product! Where my bird is often flying 'Up close and personal' to houses, trees and other drone eating objects, prop guards seemed like a good investment. I was overly impressed with the EVO prop guards from Autel. Not flimsy junk! Autel has provided some very rugged prop guards, constructed with a very durable and flexible material. The little bird looks and is a lot bigger with these guards, but field testing has already reaped benefits in getting close up details of roofs. I have no relationship with Autel, just a huge fan of the thought they put into this great little bird and their accessories.
I recently received my Evo, haven't flown yet, but it came with these guards. I was wondering if this type of accessory is commonly utilized. Can you bump something without damage, did you experience this?
IF in doubt, fly with prop guards, at least initially. I fly just for fun with a lot of drone eating trees all around. Drone holds up fine with guards, saves it from the occasional bump into things. You lose a bit of speed and it is more sensitive in wind, but overall they work out great. (Had to pay for a new camera before I stated using prop guards)
