Which propellers fit the DJI Flip?

Flip propellers fit the DJI Flip only. Do not fit Mini or Air props on a Flip, because the mounts differ.

Flip props are quick-release, per the listing. Press the prop down and turn it to lock it on the motor.

A full set needs 2 CW and 2 CCW blades. Buy a full set, not a single blade, so both pairs match.

What does the full-coverage guard do?

The Flip ships with folding full-coverage propeller guards, per DJI. The guard ring in this guide adds the same cover as a spare.

Guards shield the blades during indoor flight and practice near people and walls. They add weight, so remove them for long flights.

Check each clip by hand before takeoff. A loose clip can shift in flight and touch a blade.

What does the arm buckle do?

The arm buckle fixes the Flip arm against shock, per the listing. It guards the prop area where the arm folds.

Fit the buckle when the arms are folded for travel. It stops the arm shifting in a bag.

Remove the buckle before flight. Fly with the arms locked open and the guards fitted if you use them.

How do you change a Flip propeller?

Power the drone off before you touch a prop.

Press the old prop down and turn it to release it from the motor.

Press the new prop down and turn it to lock it, then spin it by hand to check it turns free.

What did we check on the bench?

We checked all 3 listings for DJI Flip fitment. Each listing states the Flip by name.

We matched the weight under 249 g and the 31 minute flight time to the DJI Flip specs page.

We counted the guard listing as a ring for the blades and the buckle listing as an arm part, not a prop part.

Frequently asked questions

Do Mini 4 Pro props fit the Flip?

No. Flip propellers fit the DJI Flip only, and the mounts differ from the Mini line, so buy props that list the Flip by name.

Are Flip propellers quick release?

Yes. The listing states quick-release blades, so press the prop down and turn it to lock it on the motor.

Do I fly with the arm buckle fitted?

No. Fit the buckle for travel with the arms folded, then remove it before flight and lock the arms open.

Which part should I buy first?

Buy spare props first, because a bent blade ends a flying day. Add the guard ring if you fly indoors.
