Hey,

I bought a cheapo heli and one of the motors died after about an hours worth of flying. If I could replace it for cheap that would be great but the manufacturer doesnt sell spare parts and I'm not sure what kind of motor it is. Can anybody tell me what size this motor is so I can search for replacements? Also, where could I search for a replacement? XD

Thanks!

It looks to me like a 130 motor.......why dont you throw in a 180 stock motor up in there.

If you need some 130 size motors, go to radioshack and get a motor upgrade kit for xmods. The pinions are harder than hell to get off, though. I think they made new ones without pinions. But I'm not sure. Just a thought.

The new XMODS EVOLUTION series motor upgrades use plastic push-on pinons instead of the regular brass.
