Hit a wall, killed a motor. How to replace!

Is 71mm cable enough for rear motors? I'll do the same process shown in the post. (I won't solder it to motherboard)
by joining only the two wires without welding on the board, this measurement may be sufficient. fortunately I haven't changed the Tello engines yet.
 
It will be much easier to do, once you remove the bottom rubber caps.

Good lord... 🤣 Take a small scissors, cut the wires nerby the motor, pull it out, put the new motor in, connect the wires and you´re done. It takes approx 5 minutes, to replace a motor. Use tape or cut he wires different length not to short circuit and that´s it. Here´s a short vid how to do this:

My motor broke off so, that the plastic bottom with the brushes was left inside the drone foot.
Pushing it out from the bottom turned out to be easier than fishing it from the top.

No big deal. For me it would take 2 mins to get this thing out using a long head pliers or a tweezer...
