P3 4K Motor help

epicdoom · Aug 27, 2017

Does anyone know if the motors on the P3S and the P3 4K are the same I purchased a used 3 4K from a guy who installed non DJI prop guards the screws are super long and several of them weren't even touching the plastic when fully screwed down. I notice on a flight I did recently that the motors were getting super hot after a half battery flight. I removed the junk guards and screws and reinstalled factory screws and NO guards and retested, motors are still getting hot. I don't want to chance that they will be ok so I want to replace them only ones I can find are these. said to work with the P3S any help is appreciated

Motors

I just ordered 4 new motors for a P3P on Amazon. Make sure you order the same motors that are in your bird. The P3P I'm working on had the old 2312 motors. The owner of this P3 had previously installed prop guards and removed them but left in the longer screws which if tightened up fully will dig into the motors and destroy them. So get rid of those longer screws. My P2 motors get pretty hot. Maybe someone else can chime in on this.

the Motors on mine look exactly like the ones I linked from amazon. I already tossed the guards and screws for them in the trash lucky for me he kept the factory screws so I just reinstalled them to test it out. unfortunately they got hot so my guess is the damage is done. I saw the set of motors under the P3 4K on DJI site they were listed as E305 motors and appear to possibly be an upgrade, but they aren't in stock or I would just buy that set to make sure I'm getting genuine parts. the ones I linked are said to be genuine I just need to know if they will work.
