Two rotors don't work

I got my crazyflie yesterday... It seems to be pretty buggy. I crashed it quite a few times, and now two rotors do not work. Both M1 and M2 aren't working. However, they spin on startup... And when I give enough throttle before I try taking off, M1 will start to spin... I switched motors, and the motors aren't the problem... Could this be from the signal being sent from my phone? Is this crazyflie just busted?

Somehow I changed a rotor, and they started working again, but after a crash, M3 prop stopped working. It seems on my crazyflie individual rotors will stop working at random.

Now I didn't crash, I was just testing the rotors by holding the crazy lie in my hand will I applied a lot of thrust for awhile and then M1 and M2 stopped working.

Hi @chicagoan,

Do you have the 0.6 VM? If so, you can connect the Crazyflie via USB cable and see some output in the python client. It would be good to see what the self-test reports in the console of the client to help troubleshoot this.
