  • In this video you will see me stripping down my DJI mavic mini drone, to replace 2 motor arms which were damaged in a return to home crash. (See previous video)
    I purchased the arms from both eBay and Amazon (1 from each) both genuine parts. They cost around £50 for both delivered.
    The soldering iron I used in the video I purchased from B&Q for £14
    Hopefully you found this video useful!!
    Thanks for watching 😀

    What temperature are you setting the soldering iron to dude? I'm trying to replace the 2 front arms but cannot desolder the wires from the ESC. Even at 480℃! God knows what type of solder DJI are using but my 80 watt Iron melts all my other types of solders at much lower temps without issue 🤷‍♂️
    Edit - noticed you using the wide tip, tried it and worked straight away. Thanks for the Vid 👍

    What if we swapped the mavic mini 2 arms on the original mini ?? Will the mavic mini have more stability due to the powerful ESCs ?? This question is just stuck in mind since when the mini 2 was launched. Please reply !!!! 🙏🏼

    Thanks Jeremy for the repair tutorial! I broke the right front arm on my Mini just this morning. Your video is by far the best that I’ve watched so far on fixing a broken arm on the Mini. Thanks again and fly safe!
