I read mixed views on using prop savers on multicopters.
Given the number of props i lost, even before having a good first flight, I felt I could use prop savers.
I would like to hear what everyone think about this.

Started out bolting my props on and broke a ridiculous number. I've lost very few since switching to prop savers. My quad flies fine with them and I've yet to lose a prop in flight. Check the o-rings regularly and swap out any dodgy looking ones.
Not prop savers, just look at all the expensive commercial units, not a prop saver to be seen.
They introduce vibration and make the entire experience more dodgy.
I wouldn't use them on a copter or you might loose a perfectly good prop. The prop will survive the fall, but the rest of the copter?
