Are the motor and attached boards only mention for the one position or can they be swap between the front and rear position?

Inspire 1 motors are soldered to the ESC boards. The power connections can be disconnected from inside the tubes so the motor and ESC can be removed. The motors rotate CW and CCW directions and need to be replaced with the same one.  This repair requires experience and modeling skills but can be done. You can find some Youtube videos that could help you decide....  You may want to check out DJI repair shop prices before starting this on your own.

the two motors going diagonal are the same. so if looking at the nose of the bird the front right and rear left are the same as well as the front left and rear right. one set has a silver center post while the other set has a darker black chrome center post.

removing and replacing is rather easy if you have a small screw driver bit set. theres 6 allen screws holding the foot and motor to the tube (3 per side) then inside the foot is 4 small Philips screws holding the ESC to the foot. along with some small plugs and such.

just take your time and its easy

Hi, thanks for your notification. What we mean is if the drone is under warranty, our customers could send the unit to our facility so that we could take advantage of the warranty. However, we're not forcing our customers to send the drone to our repair facility and it would depend on customers preferences. Thank you for understanding.
