Drill tripped the power then went pop

Ben Jones · 25 Jul 2016

Was using the drill below to drill into brick, after around 10 holes it started to cut in and out. Then it tripped the electrics and when I flicked the trip back on the drill made a loud pop/bang and smelt funny. I've not plugged it in again since...

Just wondering if its possible/worthwhile getting it fixed and what the likely issue is?

A burnt out armature I would think, and it's most unlikely that an economical repair would be possible.
