Hi guys:

My dealer replaced just one of my Inspire motors.
My other 3 motors have 30 hours of use.

Do you think I should insist on replacing all of them?

Thanks

I've replaced single motors on both my phantoms a few times , it's not necessary to replace them all if just one is bad , each has its own esc , 30 hours isn't near the motors life yet ...should be fine.

Thank you. I had no idea whatsoever about this subject.

What makes you think that the motor is damaged?

It was not damaged. Only the prop. The prop went against an helmet and damaged it self. After removing the prop that motor was working but when turned with the hand seemed to move unevenly by comparison with the others that have the props installed. They replaced the motor but after that they fund that the motor was working ok but did not undid the operation. I'm going to try the bird today.
