How To
Repairing a damaged motor on a drone
The first step toward repairing a damaged motor is to identify what part of the motor is broken. The easiest way to do this is to remove the propeller from the motor shaft. Next, remove all wires from the motor shaft and inspect the internal workings. If you notice something amiss, you'll know what part of your motor to fix.
If the motor is in good condition, you shouldn't worry. But if it looks like one of the images below, you will need to replace parts before you can fly again.
Consider a motor that has become bent and won't turn. You will need to bend it back into shape. To hold the motor, use a vice grip or pair of pliers. After you have completed this step, be sure to inspect the motor for any signs of wear.
Once everything looks good, you can put the propeller back on the motor shaft. Then, reattach the wires. You are now ready for your drone to fly.
