How do I fix this motor

I was resoldering my motor wires in and mistaked the winding for a piece of broken off wire and accidentally ripped it off the board..

I found one piece of winding that looked like it may go back in this through hole (arrow in the image showing which one is botched) and soldered it in but the motor only spins at 400 now when testing.. uh oh

I’m not sure what to do about this, will it have to be rewound ? I don’t see any spare copper to pull through the hole

Sorry the pics suck it’s extremely hard for me to get a good picture of this tiny motor with this phone

I need your suggestions. As of now I’m rocking some HDZERO boxpros, and an air 65 II. My side piece is the vr04HD with a Meteor75pro p1 for cruising and just enjoying the view basically. I don’t think I’m ready for an HDZERO setup yet as I’m a camera breaker and not ready to spend the $.

I love the feel of the Air65 II, a little brittle for the newb but so far this has been the most fun / agile. Light as a feather/ takes a beating , super agile

Meteor75pro is like the big girl, side piece who gets love when the air65 is outta town (broken) just a little too heavy, struggle making tight/ snappy turns & it drops like a rock with a super punch out to catch it. It’s like 50g with a 580 lava II :(

As of now I’m looking to add a new girl to the collection, i fly mostly outdoors the thing I want to improve the most is a little better wind resistance and flight time then my air65 II R . If I’m really getting down on it, I get maybe a 2 mins 45 - 3 max as of now.

Any recommendations would be appreciated, what do you like ?

Bought a led chaser board to practice , did everything well, lights don’t work. Figured out that unlike the rest of the board the through holes that are square are not grounds for the lights , they’re +.

Great

Anyways, now I have to remove all the leds and retry, what’s going to be the most efficient way to do this? Should I just toss the board and get another to try on? Wick every connection? Not sure where to go from here. All the leds are now cut super super short..

Does anyone have any tips to toughen up these thin camera wires. This is the second time it’s broken in a day. Both time is when I’m installing the canopy.. the first time I chalked it up to maybe I wasn’t being careful enough , second time I was being as gentle as possible and suddenly I see a free floating red wire again.. after soldering it very well earlier. So confused.
