Ryze Tello Drone Motor Replacement

We had a broken drone. We realized the motor was the issue. As seen in the video, propeller orientation is quite important! Oh yea. One last thing. Cold heat shrink looks like HOT heat shrink. LOL. All in all, repair was a success.

Amazing tutorial, I accidentally ripped my motor when changing propellers (I know, stupid) but i have ordered new motors and will follow these steps in the installation 💯.

Excellent. Good luck and thank you for commenting!

Tello drone has brushed motors not brushless motors

[@xiaomitello3827]

I only have 1 motor, don't know if it is cw or ccw one. Is it ok if i reverse the wirings to suit the rotation of motor to cw and vice versa. Thanks in advance

Hello. I cannot confirm, but I would agree this technique would work. Since the wire colors are different, you have a 50/50 chance of getting it correct.

You mentioned a ‘locating device’ on the feet of the drone? I’m not sure that there is such a thing?

[@projectfixit]

Good point. I should crop that out as I believe those are antennas.

[@finlayrae2429]

[@projectfixit]
