hey guys, i am curious from your experience.

I am first time drone builder here. I was trying to solder onto my ESC, and i messed up and made a giant glob and uneven joint. I kept trying to take it off but it hardened. I kept trying while holding the 400 celcius solder for a lot of seconds (maybe 10-15) in hopes of flicking it off (i know now to use braided wick). The chip got really hot since i held it on for a long time, but i dont see any discoloration or lifted parts on the chip. Should i keep using the chip to build my drone even if i mightve over heated or should i buy chip and do it again.
