Solved! And a word of warning to all Inspire 2 operators. So after removing the motor I found that one of the small plastic lugs from the quick lock mechanism had become detached and had ingressed into the motor housing causing the unit to lock up. This piece is obviously getting stressed so I...

Hi, I was packing my Inspire 2 away after a recent flight and found the rear ccw motor had locked up. It had a small amount of lateral play and after some ‘wiggling’ it seemed to release and spin freely again. However after getting it out on the bench at home it has again locked up with only...
