[QUOTE="Linuxglobal, post: 52069, member: 8025"] wow thats a great find, i certainly did not find that when fixing mine, a lot of parts are out now which is a nice perk. If you want to save time then yes printing it will be much easier. I print my stuff on a prusa mk2s and mk3, most printers will be just fine, you can use ABS for a nice firm support. I will just need rough dimensions of the back piece, use pictures from the ebay link to draw on top of with paint and then you can confirm from the stl (it will be almost like a thin skin). If you are lucky you wont need to totally remove it, the gimbal can be accessed enough to slip on the part. Removing it involves basically dismantling the entire drone, top, main board, IMU, etc all need to come out. Personally I would order that ebay part since most of these motors get damaged in the crash, mine was fine surprisingly but order it just in case, and we can use the 3D printed one as a patch. Once the new one arrives you can carefully take it all apart swap parts. You may have a bad roll motor when you are done fixing it, cant tell before its all glued back together. [/QUOTE]
