Hi everyone! 
I am really new at drone flighting and I accidentally damaged one motor of the drone, I am looking for options to get the replacement. I have a VOXLm500 that came with Holybro 2216/880kv. I've been looking for the exact brand and model and they are out of stock. Does anyone knows where I can buy it (since in the store of modal does not sell motors) or does anyone knows if any other motor with 2216 /880kv specification works for my drone? 

Thanks!

@Juan-de-Dios-Oseas-Gutiérrez-Ortiz See this thread: https://forum.modalai.com/topic/781/replacement-motors-for-m500/2

@Jeremy-Schmidt is our expert in that area.

Though I cannot answer your question about sourcing/ordering a motor replacement, I just want to point out that there are two washers placed in between each motor and arm on the drone frame. Each arm has the washers installed in a specific location to aid handling. Observe and take note of the washer position so when you take off and replace the motor, you will be able to properly reinstall the washers

@tom Thank you!

@Jeremy-Schmidt I see that you recommend the racerstar 2216/810kv motors, do you know if the propellers from m500 match this motors?
