I took a "new" Mini 2 out for a quick flight a few days ago.
It was actually the drones first flight...and also a month past it's one year warranty.
The right front motor wouldn't spin after launching.  We removed the battery and and we noticed the motor was a little stiff.
After a few rotations by hand the motor freed up and the drone flew fine.
Took it home and blew out the motor with compressed air. Did not see any debris.

Have any of you or heard of..... or anyone had a similar issue with a motor?
Thoughts?


DJI...No need to respond.

How did you store it? There was probably pressure on that motor that probably stiffened it up. Happened with mine too.

Thanks for the reply.
It's always been out of the case on a shelf. No pressure on motor.

Yep maybe it just sat too long without any movement which stiffened a motor.
