This video will show you how to install propeller guards on the Phantom 3 series. Before we get started
make sure you have the following tools and parts: a Phantom 3 aircraft, 4 propeller guards, white
protective wire, 8 M3*10mm screws, a hex key. Please use M3*10mm screws to install the propeller
guards. If you remove the propeller guards please re install the original M3*5mm screws. Otherwise the
motors may be damaged by the M3*10mm screws. To install the propeller guards please follow these
steps: unscrew the M3*5mm screws on the 4 arms using a hex key. Altogether you will remove 8
M3*5mm screws, 2 from each arm. Please take good care of the M3*5mm screws so that they can be
put back on when you want to take of the propeller guards. Place 1 propeller guard on each arm. Screw
in and tighten 2 M3*10 screws with the hex key. No thread lock should be used. Make sure the propeller
guard is installed correctly. Install the other 3 propeller guards in the same way. Install the 4 propellers
by screwing them on in the correct direction. Observe the gap between propellers and propeller guards.
Make sure the propeller guards and the propellers are functioning normally. Thread the protective wire
through the small hole on the edge of each propeller guard. Fix the wire on the prongs to keep the 4
propellers tightly fixed. Tie a knot at the end of the wire. The wire is used as a barrier to protect the
propeller damage. That’s how you install the propeller guards.
