FPV Motor DIY Cleaning & Fixing 

my quickest fix ever. replace the motor.. done ! 😮

I agree with everything that you said in this video, except for the metallic brush on the motor windings you are actually scraping and enamel coating that manufacturers put on the motor windings to waterproof them and protect them right off and then when you put it under the showerhead, you’re actually going to cause those windings to start to rust

Using pieces of paper as a feeler gauge to measure magnet to stator clearance would probably be easier to identify bell runout than simply eyeballing it.

You can use chewing gum or bluetack instead of metal brush, its working perfectly. Nice trick with bend bell ty.

So detail legit . Finally i found a video on how to clean your Fpv motors in different ways.

Advice, don't brush the copper windings too hard with the wire brush, they have a coating that they need to keep :D

Dude! That soldering iron & loctite technique just blew my mind! It doesn't matter if someone else thought it up, thank you for passing it along!

For removing iron particles from the magnets inside motor bells, I find a tacky putty works great! The putty I have is intended for temporary placement of posters on walls. Don't land/crash in sand! Edit: of course looking to the right shows that JB did a video 4 years ago on this with a thumbnail showing what I just said....

Awesome video on restoring the motors👍. Thanks

Thanks! You just helped me fix a motor that I thought was busted. All I had to do was take the bell off and put it back on 😂

Good video. Thank you for he great info

Nice video

Well done

Excellent video 👍🏻 I’ve been washing my motors the same way for years - easy way to keep them going for ages

Pack Hi tack or silly putty or even your chewed-up bubblegum into the motor belll then it will pull out metal shavings when removed

Hot Glue works better than a brush or even putty to remove metal shavings!

2:50 you can buy boxes of O ring for cheap :)

Link on that cool plier..

Awesome in depth video! You should definitely have more subs!

How to fix a wire that snaps right at the motor? The very thin cooper wire that is right under the motor

Hey, Tan good video, I'm Malaysian but stay at Ireland i just been new in this hobby ..i would like someone from Malaysian maybe sharing something....

So … I messed up. Exactly what you were worried about… I stripped my screw and now I am clueless as to how to open the bell as there is a piece of junk inside ta motor which I need to remove. Pls help

Do you have any advice for motors with c-clips's? Also can you run these in water after for drag to do a final clean, like you would do for a dirt brushed motor, or a brushed motor with new brushes..?

What analog VTS's do you use and have good luck with? Just looking for a good brand solid analog VTX for clear and not-glitchy signal with some distance between goggles? Would i see a noticeable upgrade in replacing my Eachine VR-007 older but great clear screen, no dvr or anything, one anttena, and internal VRX. I see the Eachine 800D i believe theyre called as supposed to be the best budget friendly option at $100 and it has dual antennas, patch and omni antennas, and SD Card DVR built in, but again not replaceable VRX. I have a few digital DJI drones and one 5" with an O3 Air Unit, and its obviously super clear, and never breaks up at all within reasonable distance.. But i have a lot of other drones and i dont hate Analog, plus its just to expensive to convert every drone i might want to build and fly either. Especially with a good analog camera for night flying is so much fun for going in and out of lit area's, as long as its dimly lit by something, it will be in B&W, but you'll be able to see just fine.. Where as the DJI O3 air unit system is literally unflyable at night!! So im not opposed to investing in wha they have now, which is VRX holder Module Bay for the DJI goggles, like an HDZERO analog has sort of with the HDMI-IN Ports. It just lets you use that A/V feed and plug it into your DJI goggles v1/v2, and gets power from the xt60 cable right before it enters the goggles to power itself as well. That way the analog signal from the external VRX module and holder with a power adapter and all, can use the DJI goggles as the Screen basically. Oh and by the way, thanks for the videos. I just took apart my older fpv drone motors and they sound so much smoother now. I wonder if it would cause the issue i was having with one motor just randomly cutting out or not starting on Arm Dyn Idle..

I have the same set of Hexdriver's. Ive had them for about a year now and the Tip's are still perfect. Do you have a link to them? I cant find where i ordered them from to re-order i set. I remember they werent too expensive at the time at least and i just figured id take a chance. I love them now. Just want a backup set. I got the full set that goes down to 0.7mm and i actually needed it to repair a dji drone. it was one of those really small size's..

i think u need to use plastic brush instead metal brush, it can damage your wire enamel

What tool you use to fix bent bell?

for the metal dust or rusts u can use putty and they will a 200times better job than tape also why did use a metal brush on the copper windings 4:30

DO NOT brush motor coils with a metal brush! the wire has a layer of silicon(e) to prevent the wire from shorting out on itself!!

Ah another Klang boy. Which high school you went to?

Not advice that I care to follow, based on the fact that he fan dried his electronics, right after giving his drone an old fashioned shower in his bathtub! Can anyone say "rust",??

Great content. Very useful. I'm subb'n ya bro!
