Guys quick question.

It raining here in London UK so thought I'd just take my P3 out of the bag and just inspect it.

I realised the fan has only 2 screws but there are 4 holes.

1 screw in opposite holes...see pictures for reference.

Is this normal or is it meant to have 4 screws holding the fan down?

2 on mine, only 2 holes for screws, other holes on mine are for air flow.

Cost cutting measures? [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]
 
I never knew about the fan - I thought there was more than enough airflow when it was flying - learn something new every day!

Wibble, tomorrow we will all learn DJI is using polystyrene shell/body and rubber band propelled ice cream stick motors for the new P4 and will be price tagged at £1899 for Advanced model and £2159 for the professional?

Wanna know why the high price?
Because the camera's will be made out of gold and platinum.
 

I'm pretty sure that is not a fan.

Just a nice shiny round object put there by DJI to make it look nice lol
 
Nikolas, ignore my ignorance just so tired waiting for the P3 batteries to charge lol so late and got to take battery No.2 off and then put 3 and then 4, need to order a hub can't do this anymore lol

See picture, that is not a fan but a motor.

Have you seen/noticed when you first turn the P3 on the camera goes from right/left to centre very slowly or when you first arm the motors before take off the camera moves towards a side before centering?
Its that motor that moves it.
