It's an easy test though and it can be an SMD component and some PUR-coated magnet wire or 30 awg single stranded kynar hookup wire.

Use a small amount of glue from a hot glue gun to fixate it when done, or epoxy if that's your thing. Avoid cyanoacrylate. Not always needed but I imagine a drone moves around alot.

Bodge wiring is a good skill to acquire - PCBs will not always be perfect. Maybe practice on something else first?

True.

I have a bunch of through-hole parts for these sorts of situations. There are plenty of small through-hole ceramics that have leads if you really want to go there.
