Hello,
I have my crazyflie for a something like 2 months and i was really happy with it until i was replacing the motors because he crashed really hard but after i start him up he started smoking and i saw some sparks and i saw to one of the compunents next to one of the Regulators there was a component losse an i tryed to repaird it but it didn't help. What should i do now? because i really loved the drone and i am really sad that it broke so i orderd now a new one, but still is there something i can do to repair it or get maybe a new one?
hope to here soon something.

Re: damage PCB crazyflie
It is probably possible to fix if it is just burnt on the surface. If the inner layers of the PCB is damaged it can be a lot trickier. How experienced are you with electronics? The regulator, 6-leg chip, is probably damaged and maybe some traces. The traces could probably be repaired and the regulator exchanged but it might require some electronics experience. You can have a look at the electronics design in kicad to find out how it should look like.
