I've been noticing on my last couple flights that 1 motor is getting so hot that I have to wait a little bit before I can touch it to take the blade off. Should I be concerned?
If one motor is getting noticeably hotter than the others then something isn't quite right. And, I don't buy what he said about the wind since I would imagine that in those circumstances more than one motor would be working harder.Update: Called Yuneec this morning and told Mitch, whom I think I've spoken to a couple times, nice guy, I told him of the issue with the hot motor and he said it could be caused by that motor working harder due to wind and suggested I do an accelerator calibration, but I had already done that, and told him the same engine is still getting hot, but he told me it wasn't cause for concern, but he did log my concerns so if anything happens due to that motor they have a record of it. Not sure if I should push the issue or not.
It could be the ESC for that motor is going bad. If that is the motor that broke a prop stopping the motor can cause an excessive current condition and cause the Field Effect Transistor to start going bad.I didn't have any motor errors in GUI so I bet they didn't replace that motor.
