Inspect and replace DJI Mini 4 Pro propellers as matched parts
Check before every flight, replace damaged blades with new screws, preserve marked motor matching, and verify free, secure installation.
Direct answer
The shortest reliable path.
Inspect every DJI Mini 4 Pro propeller and screw before each flight for cracks, wear, warping, corrosion, or looseness. If any condition is present, replace the affected motor’s two blades and screws with the documented new parts and included screwdriver. Match marked propellers to marked motors and unmarked propellers to unmarked motors, keep each motor’s blade pair together, tighten as the manual shows, and confirm every blade pivots freely and every screw is secure before powering the aircraft for a controlled low hover.

Scope before steps.
DJI Mini 4 Pro aircraft using genuine model-specific replacement propellers, screws, and the documented hand tool.

Procedure
Do this in order.
- 01
Inspect every blade and fastener
Look and feel for chips, cracks, bends, wear, corrosion, stiff pivots, and loose or damaged screws before every flight.
- 02
Record the motor marking
Before removal, identify whether the affected motor and its propellers carry DJI’s matching mark.
- 03
Replace the pair and screws
Remove both blades and their screws from one motor, then install the matching new blade pair with the new supplied screws.
- 04
Confirm movement and security
Check that the blades pivot freely, lie in the correct orientation, and that screws and motors are secure without forcing the threads.
- 05
Run a controlled verification
After a complete preflight check, use an open legal area for a short low hover close to the takeoff point and listen for abnormal vibration or sound.
Diagnostic matrix
Read the result, not the guess.
| What you see | Check next | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Only one blade on a motor looks damaged | Replace the documented blade pair and its screws. | The motor should retain a matched replacement set. |
| Marking does not match the motor | Stop and install the correct marked or unmarked pair. | The propeller is assigned to the wrong rotational position. |
| Vibration or unusual sound appears in the test hover | Land immediately and re-inspect the full propulsion path. | The aircraft has not passed the post-maintenance check. |
Stop conditions
Know when not to keep changing things.
- Do not fly with a chipped, cracked, warped, corroded, stiff, or loose propeller assembly.
- Do not reuse damaged screws, force a cross-threaded fastener, or mix unidentified blade types.
- Use DJI service after a crash, motor impact, stripped mount, or persistent vibration.
