Just received my INVERTIX today and it came with the V1 props. Luckily I did order a set of the V2 props with it. So I will report back if I can feel a difference in flight characteristics. So far just comparing them side by side the new V2 props feel stiffer and thicker than the V1 props. See in the pic V2 on the left and V1 on the right. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1433794670.501878.jpg

I am finally getting back to posting my findings and I have to say that the V2 props are a lot stronger than the V1 props. But I really can't tell any difference in the way they fly.

Thats not to say the V2 props don't offer more thrust than the V1 props. I just don't have a way of testing the difference in thrust. I have been able to test the crash worthiness of the V2 and they have been able to survive a crash that would have easily broke the V1 props. Also the V2 props don't feel like they are about to snap when putting them on like the V1 props do. I am going to stick with the V2 props for now.

Have you guys tried using the Leap 450 props? guys are doing it on the Hyper 400. you get some 8mm spacers from Lowes drill them out to the size of the prop shaft, and the put some lock washers on top of the prop. Drill the middle hole of the prop to the same size of the prop shaft as well. you will gain at leat 1.5 min, and up to 3 min. I fly the Leap, and on a 2200 mAh 4s I get 5.5 min with my cells having around 3.74v left.

What about these. They say they will fit the Invertix 400.

I dont know why that says for the leap 450, because the Leap motors have two holes to put the screws in and a peg in the middle to mount. I have looed at those before, I think they meant the Hyper. I will have my friend send me some pics of his Hyper with that set up, and I have some of the spacers, I will find out what they are called exactly. You can get them at Lowes though in the nuts washer and boldts section. they are 8mm spacers, I think they are Delrin.

They look just like the Gemfan props that Hobbyking sell. Ive used the and still use Hobbyking props without issue's..

Although I have yet to break a V2 prop. I'm not saying they are unbreakable I just havent yet maybe Ive just been lucky with my Crashes .... But my flying buddy has broke a complete set ( A tree got in the way)
