How To

Repairing a damaged motor on a drone

First, identify the broken part of the motor to repair it. It is easy to do this by removing the propeller shaft from the motor shaft. Then, you need to remove any wires connected to the motor and inspect its inner workings. If you see something wrong, then you know what part of the motor you have to fix.

If there is no damage to the motor, then you don't have to worry too much however if the motor looks like one of these images below, then you'll need to replace some components before you can fly again.

Imagine a motor that isn't turning anymore because it has been bent. You will need to bend it back into shape. To hold the engine, use a pair pliers or a vice grip. After you've completed the above, ensure that you inspect the motor for signs and wear.

Once you are satisfied with everything, mount the propeller on the motor shaft. Reattach the wires. You are now ready for your drone to fly.
