How do you replace the motor?

I had a Protocol Galileo Drone for awhile before Murphy's law finally kicked in and an accident occurred. A gust of wind took it into the branches of a tree. There, it was stuck for a few days and in the meantime their was some light precipitation (snow). However, I was finally able to get it back down. When checking to see if it was okay, I noticed one of the motors was dead. I am assumed this is due to water damage. I want to replace it, but I have not been able to find any instructional videos on how to do this on this specific drone. I emailed Protocol a few weeks ago and never got an answer. If anyone knows how I could go about doing this, that would be very appreciated.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Have you checked out the video for the SYMA X8 series? From other forums, a lot of people are saying it is essentially the same design. I've linked it below if you want to check it out and see if it is similar to your model.

When I got mine apart I not only noticed the motor was froze up but it had also warp the plastic housing that it fits in not letting the motor gear touch the rotor gear,... Anyone know where that part can be purchased?
