[QUOTE="Sparkbart, post: 22651, member: 652"] Buying used is always a gamble. I can't imagine it came from the factory with a bent shaft, but it is possible. The original owner may have crashed it in such a fashion that was the only damage. With my FPV drones, if one motor is louder or noisier than the others, there is definitely an issue with that motor. HOWEVER, I'd do every you have done especially checking the temp of the motor after running (assuming you are using a temp gun), checking for excessive play, grinding, notchy feeling when spinning it. For me, I don't like stuff like that on my FPV drones, I won't risk losing/crashing the drone and causing more damage, so I'll change out that ~45 buck motor. The Spark is different for me. I won't attempt a repair on it. So in that case, I'd keep a careful eye on it and if it gets worse, I'd send it in for repair... [/QUOTE]
