DJI Mavic Air (1st-Gen) Arm Replacement Guide

[@foli12321]

Thank you! I followed your guide to fix my broken arm and this was exactly what I needed! I do have one small correction: At 1:01, you say that the 10 Philips screws are identical, but mine didn't appear to be. They were identical lengths, but four of them were of a finer thread. Thanks again! :D

Excellent video. Appreciate it. Is replacing a left front arm basically the same because I see the arm has 4 wires. instead of three.

[@TapticDigital]

Almost identical, it just has an extra wire for the antennas in the feet for the front arms

ENCOURAGEMENT!

Epic repair! Well done 😄

[@andreicravtov494]

Hi. What kind of silicone adhesive youre using? Thanks

[@TapticDigital]

I used B7000, it's rigid enough to old but flexible enough that the vibration of the drone doesn't affect it much.

Hello, how do you test the mavic air without making it fly? Thank you.

[@TapticDigital]

I don't, I always fly a drone after a repair. Just because it spins doesn't mean it's working properly, so I always bring them outside for a quick flight or two.

Hi I changed the knuckle on the back leg but when put all back together it's says...ECS status error contact dji ?

[@TapticDigital]

ESC error? It's likely an issue with the wiring of the motor, could be wrong spots, loose wire, or damaged

[@johnozzy2]

Double checked and re done soldering but still same issue 😪

[@TapticDigital]

@@johnozzy2 hmm could also be just a defective motor, or if the motor is some how jammed

[@stevenwrucki1844]

Would you be able to fix mine? Broke the front arms of my first gen air

[@TapticDigital]

I don't offer mail-in repairs just yet, currently I'd recommend Drone Nerds for repairs, though I am open to suggestions if anybody else knows a better option.

[@stevenwrucki1844]

Ok thank you

[@Iowalife96]

Where can I order a rear replacement arm

[@TapticDigital]

Unfortunately eBay is still the best option for replacement parts

[@eprohoda]

how u doing?~ that is splendid view~Taptic- 😇

[@TapticDigital]

Thank you!

What if the main board and the camera board is missing ?

[@TapticDigital]

If those two parts are missing it’s 1) not going to fly and 2) not going to have a working camera.

[@Shadowboy172t3]

@@TapticDigital oh ok, do you know where I can buy these parts?

[@TapticDigital]

@@Shadowboy172t3 unfortunately with the older Mavics the only place I’ve had any luck has been eBay and AliExpress
