Ok,

My plan now is:

  1. take apart motor and look for any signs of shorts. perhaps learn more tests. because it seems ok.

  2. replace the 1.7 blown focbox with a 1.6 I have on hand. rolling with the 1.7 on the other side. not blocking on understanding the differences better.

  3. the replacement 1.6 will go in the existing 1.7 base case. so I don’t have to take all the electronics out. I will reuse the nice thermal pad from the 1.6 which is nice and clean. I will transfer it with tweasers.

  4. I’ll watch thermals. for variance between the two.

  5. I’ll order some 8W/mk 2mm thick thermal pads and when they come swap it out.

  6. observe thermals see if there’s any difference.
