Hi all,
I recently had a minor crash on a sandy beach, which resulted in my Phantom getting a bit of sand near (and apparently into) at least one of the motors. It seemed to work OK immediately after I carefully shook/tapped the sand out, and I had another successful flight that day. However, today (two weeks later) when I fired it up again, that motor wouldn't cooperate and couldn't spin nearly as fast as the other three. I didn't dare even trying to take off.
Does anyone have any experience with sand in a motor? I'm hoping this is something I can resolve myself, instead of having to send it somewhere to be replaced. Should I try blowing it out with compressed air, maybe?
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
