I decided to paint my Phantom. It was not as easy as I expected. I had to tape off the lights,motors and some screw holes. It did turn out nice in my opinion,but I would not try to paint a pre-assembled Phantom again. What is far easier is to paint a Phantom shell. I have one and painting it was a breeze. i will post pic,s once the build on that quad is done!
I flew the Phantom this afternoon in its pictured configuration. The Zinger props work pretty good. I will attach my GoPro Hero3 and test for balance/vibration,but the props being balanced are far stiffer than the stock DJI "white and black props". I would expect the resulting video to be jello/vibration free.
I have removed the nylon string seen in the pictures looped through the prop guards. The string sagged during flight,so I just took it off. It could also cause vibration due to downward prop wash and forward motion. I didn't want it to get all tangled up in the motors/prop,s. :highly_amused:
