230SI Motors
Just curious if anyone has had any motor troubles. I was talking with a guy on RC Groups that had a pinion gear on one of his motors come loose and today I had a motor crap out on me.

Yea I had a motor burn out on the 3rd flight without even a crash occuring. My good guy local hobby shop replaced it for free since manu. defect.
it's been 3 weeks now and probably flew it a good 10-15 times and haven't had to replace anymore. I have noticed as well that the motors do get a little warm after 15 mins of use as well. I now give them a chance to cool off before I pop another battery in |

Good idea to let the motors cool down before your next flight.
I have to talk to Customer Service at Tower Hobbies on Mon. to see if they'll replace it.
