I just found you today, to replace my left front leg. Than this video popped up. What a great video. I know drone manufactures don't want customers to do DIY. But if they did I think your phone would be ringing off the hook, to have you represent them with videos!!! 5***** from me!

Hi mate , having problem trying to connect the long antenna. Looking at it , it doesn't look collapsed, but might be. Do you need to replace whole leg if antenna has collapsed ?

It’s easier than trying to fish the antenna cable through the arm.

Hi. Thanks for your video. How much do you charge to replace the mid frame on a mini 2? The screws are stripped out on one of the axis of the rear legs (where the black axis screws into the mid frame)… any suggestions on that other than full replacement? Thanks
@arsvitae2857 ай бұрын
Thanks for this guide, that what I was looking for. I am wondering, however, exactly what temperature did you set the soldering iron to? And other question: is that electronics grade silicon really necessary? I would appreciate this information.
@QCGUY6 ай бұрын
Lead-based solder: Start at 600°-650°F (316°-343°C) Lead-free solder: Start at 650°-700°F (343°-371°C) The electronic grade silicone is recommended versus just using silicon.
@BackDaws7 ай бұрын
Quick question about soldering, how do you stop the solder from touching, they are really small and close together, is it something to do with the flux ?
@hughcowley72976 ай бұрын
No it's nothing to do with flux. You just put too much solder on it. You can remove with desolder braid or a solder sucker(you have to be careful with this tool as it easy to remove the pads from the jolt if you let the tool hit the soldering iron). So I would recommend the braid.
@QCGUY6 ай бұрын
Solder will stick to the copper traces not the areas in between but flux does have something to do with it by preparing the surface for good clean flow of the solder. You will notice a considerable difference without it.

Hi Chris, This is a wonderful video, top marks. I have a question you maybe able to help with. I've replace the mid frame on a Mini 2 SE and the gimbal absorbing bracket is broken. I ordered this with the mid frame and got all. It's only now I realise you need a special tool to press out the axle, but also if you do that the motor and PCB look like they are still attached to the broken adapter and I don't see any information how to move these to the new adapter anywhere. If I go the other route and get a complete gimbal without the camera it has to be calibrated and from research it looks like the firmware may have to be replaced to do this. That looks a bit like rooting an Android phone. Just wondering if you can offer any advice on which path to choose.

My friend I am a newbie with drone repair but i have there's one thing that continues to perplex me and no one seems to post or describe the answer to this question and maybe I am revealing my inaptitude with this, but what is the temperature you recommend the solder iron be at in order for drone work? I have mine set at 410F, too much? too low? Thank you in advance!
I have a fimi X8 mini that needs to be repaired. The motor is locked on cw back right side of the drone. How much do you charge for repairs.
