Hey guys

When I go to unfold the EVO's two front arms, i'm hearing an audible scratching noise emanating from the hinge area inside.
Rear arms make no noise and seem fine.

After shining a bright light into the hinge area, I see what looks to be plastic shrink netting around the cabling. This to me seems obvious that something is catching on the netting as I unfold the arms. Just wondering whether this may cause wear issues down the track, anyone else having this issue?

Mine does it too. That nylon cable wrap will last longer than any other part of that drone, you've got no worries.
