| Looks like around $450 per motor, so $3600 for the whole machine. You could just not touch it if you wanted to. I personally would change em, but I was on other end and had motors burning up on me left and right. But it's entirely up to you. You could fly it until something gives out and deal with it then. I think you should be able to get another 5kish acres out of it reasonably without any major overhauls, if it's been well maintained and not abused.
My whole reasoning behind replacing the motors, is that DJI doesn't (didn't?) have a safety built in for takeoff weight. If you run heavier chemicals or foliar fertilizers, you can easily be over what the motors are rated for and burn them up quicker.
XAGs are another story, if you overload them, they auto land until you get the weight off. That and the quality of parts, those things last a long time if they are well kept. Pretty reasonable to to hit 15-20k acres without touching anything.
