Hi, I’ve recently experienced a problem where the propellers on my drone keep coming off during flight, and I’m looking for some advice.
- During one of the flights, a propeller came off, causing the drone to crash.
- After that, I temporarily repaired the drone using tape and flew it a few more times without any issues. There was no problem at that time.
- I later replaced the frame and re-soldered the components, but that’s when the problems started.
Issues Encountered:
- Propeller came off during arming in position mode, even though the motor number and direction were alright.
- I tested the drone in Position mode with the propeller removed (to avoid any accidents), but the motors wouldn’t stop even after trying to disarm.
- After flying in Stabilized mode, when I landed and hit the kill switch, the propeller came off again and flew a considerable distance away.
I have the log files for both the 2nd and 3rd incidents.

3rd issue https://logs.px4.io/plot_app?log=2a5b4781-215c-45f1-997c-66fc55799474
Question:
What could be causing this issue?
- Could it be vibration?
- Or is it due to motor wear and tear?
Any advice would be appreciated!
