Avata propellers keep breaking

Okay, flew the 3 blades. Couldn't really tell much difference, seemed a little puncher in manual, but so slight I'm not sure it isn't just confirmation bias (I spent $18, I want here to be a difference ).

The only thing I can say with certainty is the sound pitch is lower (in fact 3/5 the frequency), and I like it better, so I'm leaving 'em on.

Also, the material seems to be a little softer, more flexible plastic that may hold up better to anything that might cause cracks, breaks, etc. in the OEM blades.

Well been a few days. Now I hate 'em. After a dozen flights with the 3-blade Masterscrew props, the droning noise is obnoxious. I like the mosquito whine of the 5-blade OEM props much better. It's annoying too, but not nearly as much, not grating, and gentler on the ears and psyche.

Don't know how this measures on a meter, but subjectively they seem a lot louder.

All for no meaningful performance difference. I'd advise against wasting the money.
