How To
Repairing A Drone's Damaged Motor
The first step toward repairing a damaged motor is to identify what part of the motor is broken. This is easiest to do by removing the propeller from its shaft. Next, remove all wires from the motor shaft and inspect the internal workings. If you find something wrong, it is time to identify the problem.
If the motor has not been damaged, it is safe to 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 engine, use a pair pliers or a vice grip. Once you've done this, make sure to check the motor thoroughly for signs of wear.
Once you are satisfied with everything, mount the propeller on the motor shaft. Reattach the wires. Your drone is now ready for flight!
