IMG_5095.JPG I got lucky it happened in the ground, otherwise it will drop out of the sky.
Taking the pod out is simple and will be a good idea to check the soldering
On your main bird motor pods for peace of mind.
 
Sad to see, hand applied lead-free solder takes a skilled hand, but yes a cold solder joint. You did get lucky.

Did you push the solder button out as shown or was it like that?

I did, it was completely loose, when I start the motor this one
Did not spin and the lights under never light out, I knew something was wrong, maybe a loose contact, I took the motor pod out thighten everything up and did work momentarily then a close inspection on connections revealed the culprit, got lucky
