Einleitung

A faulty switch spring can lead to an unresponsive camera button, resulting in your controller not being able to record or take pictures. Cause of this can be dislocated spring, or as simple as the spring snapping over time. Follow these steps to replace the spring for either of the shoulder buttons on the Yuneec ST10 Plus drone controller.

    • Flip the controller upside down to access the battery compartment.

    • Grab the compartment door and pull down.

    How should they remove the battery component door? Make sure to tell how, not just to do something. Also, why is battery capitalized?

    • To disconnect the battery from the remote, grab the red and black connectors.

    • Pull gently on connectors until they disconnect.

    Make sure to use commas after introductory phrases (e.g., to disconnect the battery from the remote, grab).

    The action part of the photo is a little obscured. I would retake this picture to have the action more highlighted. Also, add additional pictures to make the flipbook style iFixit prefers.

    • Grab ahold of the top of the black cap on the button with the pliers and pull up forcefully.

    Do you have additional pictures to show this action?

    • Twist counter clockwise on the silver portion of the device with a pair of pliers.

    What do you mean by silver portion of the device? Aren’t there multiple silver portions? Do you have more pictures?

    • Slide the Jimmy underneath the rubber grips and pry upwards.

    • With your free hand grasp the rubber grips and pull upward to remove it.

    • Remove the six 1.3 cm screws located on the back panel of the remote using the 5.5mm hex screw bit.

    • Carefully pull up and over on the back panel to remove. Take your time because there are wires connecting the two panels that can easily torn.

    • Flip your device.

    • Once the silver cover holding the switch in place is removed, remove the switch by grabbing it and pulling back towards you.

    This step is very unclear to me. How should I pull it out? Where is this located on the device?

    • Once the switch is removed, disconnect the switch from the circuit board by pulling the cable from the cable connector.

    • The cable will come out by pulling it away from you if the bottom of the controller is oriented closer to you.

    Do you have more pictures? Make sure to match bullets to markup.

    • Carefully pry up the small metal feet surrounding the red switch connector on both sides using a metal spudger.

    • There are four feet located on the silver portion of the switch.

    These pictures are very dark and hard to see what’s going on. I think you need to zoom in further and indicate how you’re using the tool to pry the feet. Try to retake pictures showing the before and after of prying this element. See below for a good example of a flipbook shot.

    • Make sure to pull up and out where the spring connects. Do not pull from the middle of the spring or it will snap it.

    • With the angled tweezers pinch the end of the spring with the loop and gently push the spring down and back, then lift up.

    • Pinch the spring with the angled tweezers, bringing it to a vertical position. Then push down on the spring to remove it from the port that it is connected to.

    • Pull the spring away from the housing.

    Check throughout for appropriate capitalization. What do you mean by “move down to the bottom hook”?
