Einleitung

The ultrasonic sensors use sound waves to help position the drone in three-dimensional space. If your DJI drone experiences either erratic flight behavior or the inability to hold its position when staying still in the air your ultrasonic sensors may need to be replaced.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Use your finger tips to pinch the damaged propeller.
Twist the propeller counterclockwise and pull up to remove.

Schritt 2

Remove the eight 7 mm hex screws by turning counterclockwise with a 2 mm hex bit.

Schritt 3

Pry the LED motor covers off with a metal spudger.
The prying location is marked by an indent that points outward from the arm.

Schritt 4

Pry the paper covering off the four corners with a metal spudger.

Remove the twelve 8.7 mm hex screws with a 2 mm hex bit from the motor bases.

Flip the drone on its back
Remove the eight 4.5 mm hex screws by turning them counterclockwise with a 1.5 mm hex bit.
Separate the mesh from the drone by pulling up gently and rocking left to right.
The cable connects from the camera to the drone. Pulling up could rip the connection. Tilt the mesh 90 degrees towards the cable.

Lift the camera connector at one end with your hand and remove the mesh.

The U.FL antenna connectors are fragile.
Remove the two 4 mm screws using a JIS #000 bit.

Schritt 10

Pry apart the clamshell at the motor end.
Separate the clamshell.
Two wires connect from the lower frame to the upper frame at the front of the drone. Pulling the clamshell apart hard may damage the connectors and wires.
