Aftermarket Props for DJI Phantom

- Start date
I recently purchased and received DJI 8 inch replacement props from http://rchobbyhelicopter.com/
The props are identical to the original Phantom props other than being black instead of white. A set of two
props 1CW and 1CCW lists for $4.75. The only catch is they require a minimum $35 order. I purchased
extra motors .... can't have too many spare parts. I hope this information is helpful. By the way service
and shipping was great. Keep em flying!

I see from this page under PhantomGuide: http://phantomguide.com/graupner-e-prop ... i-phantom/ that it talks of 9" props. now I know everyone seems to be going for the 8x5 Graupner E-props - what advantage, if any, do 9" have over the 8" and I take it they fit ok?

Those same props are only $3 here, no minimum order necessary (I think shipping was about $3 as well)

I've purchased a few sets, they're 100% perfect replacements, just in black.
I've seen the same props also being sold elsewhere in 8-packs for about $15.
All 4 look like they're right-hand props. It's hard to tell, but the hubs don't look like they're keyed to fit the Phantom motor shaft.

These are an inch larger, but what does the 4 mean? Is it the width of the fattest part of the prop, in mm ?
Are these going to have any more lift, as in payload? Would these burn up the motors or be cause for some adverse reaction using larger props?

The second number is the pitch of the propeller. It is in the same units as the diameter. So a 9x4 is a 9" diameter and would move forward 4" in one revolution. Think of it as kind of like a thread pitch on a threaded shaft. If you turned a nut on the shaft one full revolution it would move 4 inches.
Has anyone tried the Zinger 9×4 Wooden Props for DJI Phantom?
