Phantom 2 Vision+ Propeller Hitching

[ejdischer]

Good afternoon,

First time out today, took the drone to a large park in town. Went through 3 batteries worth, no issues. Last time landing, landed in the grass, drone tipped over very gently, but propeller stopped when it hit the dirt. Now when I start it up, the front left propeller in the attached video just hitches. Any ideas before I start ordering parts? Thanks.

Either
DIrt or debris in the motor
ESC failure
Motor failure
Motor and ESC failure

open the case and swap the opposing motor over and see if it spins fine, if so its the motor, if it doesnt its the ESC

Thanks. I took the blades off to look at it, and the motor that is malfunctioning is pretty hot, especially compared to the other three.

Doesnt mean its a bad motor mate, it still could be the ESC
