One symptom of a problem with a motor, either bad bearings or grit inside, is the temperature after flying. If one motor is much hotter than the others it you'd want to fix it before it fails in flight.
How would you go about getting a read on the motors after a flight - aside from just burning your fingers and going - wow! That ones hot!....
Most times after a flight I don't even touch the motors before popping in a new battery & going up again.
Might be a nice idea to get a read on all motors (rotors?) when functions fine- to have a baseline for when they start having an issue.
Anyone know of a temperature gage with a sensor that can press against or around the rotor?
