UAV Bits Thread Caps Review

Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this product for free so that I could provide product feedback to the company and post a product review. I was not required to write a positive review and I do not rate products higher than they should have been. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's requirements.

I recently received quadcopter motor thread caps for a product review.  Although these are listed for the P3, I used them for my Xiro Xplorer V.

These thread caps are designed to cover the motor threads when you have the propellers removed.  If you transport your quadcopter in a backpack or case, the caps can prevent damage to the inside of the case.

Bare motor (no propeller / thread caps)

Thread cap installed

From what I can tell, they seem to be 3D printed material and feel pretty light but not cheap or fragile.  The caps were very easy to install, just a simple twist (in the correct direction depending on the motor rotation).  Once installed they fully cover the threads, but they don’t add too much material to the end so it shouldn’t cause a problem unless your case/backpack is a very tight fit with no room at all.

Thread caps all around

These worked fine on my Xiro Xplorer V, and likely work with any quadcopter motor that uses similar thread as the DJI series such as the P3.  UAV Bits also has a newer product ( http://www.uavbits.net/store/p34/Gold_Motor_Caps.html ) I don't know if they fit the Xplorer V, but it looks like a great option to also keep anything from going inside the motor during transport.

Bottom line: Simple to use caps to protect your quadcopter motor threads.
