So, as some here on the board know, I splatted my electric powered Shoestring at VSC. Waaa, boo-hoo, OK, I'm better now. Interesting note on it. The plane pancaked in very hard (like split the wing in half and fuse in 4 pieces hard). I collected up all the running gear and last night I was testing it all to see what survived. The motor seems to be fine (E-Flite 32) other than I thought I detected what felt like a little rub in there. Changed out the bearings and bolted it up to my test bench with prop. Ran it for about a minute. No vibration and it seems fine. The ESC came out without a scratch in spite of being thrown outside the circle. Tested it out and it also seems fine (not really sure how to tell if something is about to fail, but it ran fine on the bench and appears undamaged. Same for the timer. Weirdly, the battery had a slight scuff on it, but seems to test out fine and I ran it through a charge cycle without problems.
Now, do I trust the stuff? Hmmmm.....
