microscopic view of a Blade Nano motor

[Tony]

i changed the motor on my Blade nano several times through nasty crashes, bad piloting skills really, so i thought id take one to bits and find out why these things keep breaking. here is a view of the insides. i used a USB microscope to get the close up video.

you can see the armature is pretty well shot

I got one of those to introduce my son to the wonderful world of tiny things.

It's brilliant I think Stambo, I use it a lot for my electronic projects more than anything.. But it came in handy to show this motor..
