I replaced a damaged motor to my first drone, GepRC Rocket Plus, and now the new motor and other working one on same side are not working.
Everything worked after soldering the new motor on (not the greatest solder with the cheap iron I got) and tested each motor successfully in Betaflight prior to re-assembly. Once assembled and armed for flight only 2 motors on the opposite side beeped accordingly and spun. The other 2 didn't function at all including the new motor. Made sure I wasn't in turtle mode and had the same results when switched to acro or angle modes. Checked motors on Betaflight after assembly and now the 2 motors do not spin when previously worked after repair. Not sure what I'm missing.
Other steps taken:
Appreciate any help on this.

Other steps taken:
- BLHeli reads all 4 ESCs
- checked power output with multimeter and getting good results
- loaded my backup configuration in Betaflight
Appreciate any help on this.
