How To

Repairing A Damaged Drone Motor

It is important to first identify which motor part is damaged before you can repair it. The best way to do so is to take the propeller off the motor shaft. You should then remove the wires that are attached to the motor, and examine the inner workings. If you notice something amiss, you'll know what part of your motor to fix.

If the motor has not been damaged, it is safe to fly again.

Suppose a motor has been bent up so it won't turn anymore. The motor will need to be bent back into its original shape. To hold the motor in place, you can use a pair or vice grips. After you're done, check your motor for signs of wear.

Once everything is fine, place the propeller onto the motor shaft. Now your drone is ready to fly!
