Is this motor going to cause problems down the road?

This is a brand new MA2, well new in the sense that it hasn't been out very long... I've logged 22 hours in the last couple weeks so it's not like it's sitting on a shelf.

I don't know what brought me to flick the props originally, but I'm glad I did.

Thoughts?

The right rear prop does not "bounce" in to place when it stops, and clearly doesn't rotate as much as the left rear, or any other prop for that matter.

have you taken of the props and turned the outer bell to see if you can hear anything rubbing and to check if, as you turn they feel the same resistance,and is the gap at the bottom of the outer bell the same on all of them

I have taken off the props, no noise that I can hear. Had a short flight after noticing the issue, but didn't notice a temp difference. (5 minute flight at most)


Gotta check the clearance

 

[old man mavic]

what it may be is just down to the clearance between the magnets and the center where the windings are

I have an old P2P, guess I have hundreds of hours on it. I thought something was up as my motors did not all feel the same early in it’s life. Years and many, many flights, I still fly it with no issues.

the motors will last a long time ,if looked after and kept clean and free from contaminants, i think most differences are down to manufacturing tolerances,and quality control,where they are made, which of course comes down to cost of component

Similar issue with my original Mavic Air. Worried me for a while but after at least 50 hrs, no issues.

No.

What is the best way to clean the motors on a Mavic Mini with out harming them?
Thank you and God bless
