I landed upside down and broke an arm on my eachine racer 250. I put a new leg on but the motor isn't spinning. If I spin in manually it seems to be grinding ever so slightly. I figured it would still try and spin though. The Connections all seem to be okay but it's not working. If I replace the motor with a new one which do I get ccw or cw? It's the rear left.

Thank you. I believe you but where do I find a diagram or something about how to tell prop and motor rotation? and esc's don't matter right you just change polarity? or something. btw....... is what I'm describing sound like the motor is bad and not something else to the best of your knowledge?

Make sure you dont just have dirt in the motor. I had a clump of dirt in mine rolling around and it would jam up the motor when flying or flipping. Put it into a wild spin before it hit the ground.

hey do the esc's care what direction? they don't right. Just positive to positive and negative to negative and signal to signal right?

I'd suggest you jsut get all CCW motors and then use nylock nuts. That way you're not down if you have to get a new nut, and don't have to fool with putting those annoying ones on.
