you can fix it by taking a grinder and erasing the "Made in China" markings.

looks like something was in it..... sucks, them are some sweet motors....

It is either something that got stuck in there and chipped the magnet or it was already chipped and just got lodged in between the housing and made things worse. It's easy to say check your motors before applying power but I don't. You can't always hear or see these small things either until they develop heat or something catastrophic happens. Hopefully they send you a new one free of charge. My experience has been pretty good with the few places I buy motors from. They know these things come from china and have a high rate of defects.

It seems that a magnet broke and the debris bloqued the motor, it works now but I would not be happy to have that motor flying since there were 3 magnets loose

I urgently need one motor

something weird happened.... good luck

i'm placing an order but it'd be a few weeks till the stuff gets here if you can't get anybody else to help ya i can..... crap, i need a couple spares now looking at that.

I have been trying to find a motor, but it seems that nobody has one, even the factory.

And I do not know if is safe to fly again with a motor that has already failed.
20 days wait seems very much

I waited 3 months for mine.... but yea, it sucks

i wouldn't mess with that motor, i'd send it back for a refund....
