After watching this I am definitely purchasing care refresh...
@CrazyJannis44 GOT ME!
WHY. you can easily repair it. look at this video as example. and even with care refresh you still have to pay a payment to use it.
@@ryandoe11 I got care refresh. I think for 10% of the original price, it's worth to have some insurance for one year if I hit the wall or tree. he said that the repair score is 8 or 9. I disagree. this is more 5-6. he already broke some pieces during teardown.
Would of been a good idea to take apart the arms cause that’s the first thing to break on the drone.

Just wondering, have you experienced breaking a Mavic Mini arm? If so, did you fix it? I think flexible arms would be less prone to breakage due to have some flex.
Geez, why u using screw driver to pop out the connectors😣 Have you heard of plastic spongers😭🤓
A Spudger perhaps ? Not a sponge fisher...
Its not a screw driver. Its a metal spronger
step one: REMOVE THE DAMN PROPS
Given how many people have broken the arms on these things (including myself) I would have thought that taken the arms apart to see how repairable and user replaceable they are would have been the number one priority but none of these tear downs seem to be doing that. Whoever does a tear down of the arms will get a lot of views

love the Phillips as a pry tool...defiantly an expert
It would be cool to 3D print the body of the mavic mini and put it back together as a black color drone. It might be lighter too???
DJI sells a customization kit, perhaps that would allow you to simply color the body however you like. I am ordering one of those kits soon. After I receive my Mavic Mini in the mail.
Thank you so much! I recovered my drowned Mavic Mini (Fresh water). It was cleaned with compressed air until all the drone is dry and afte thar it stayed 2 days in a room with air conditioner. After that I removed the shells and finish the clean with Contact Cleaner. Now its working very well.
Did any part of PC boards or IC chips were short-circuited / fried due to water entrance?
Awesome to actually see the deconstruction of the Mavic Mini. Brilliant. Thanks
It would be useful to know where the little bits you broke came from so that we can try not to do the same thing 😁
the top shell very fragile espeacially after being torn off and put back together 5x). After playing w/ the mini SOP is to replace the top shell for all customer Mavic Mini repairs.
i took of and put the cover on 20- times, not one broken tab, trick is to use a CELL PHONE repair pry tool or the guitar pic type would work as well.
@@urbanbeets Also, Make sure the plastic is up to a reasonable room temp. Plastic is even more brittle if you just crashed it out in the cold.
Um, with all the small pieces that were left over after disassembly his Mini now only weighs 248.5 grams. Hey, I'm just looking at the positive side of this video. LOL
There’s another tear down a few weeks ago some Italian guy in an airplane shop
I'm doing this right now and I've just figured out that you wouldn't need to use force remove the top. Just get inside the battery terminal and there's a small detachment in there, you wouldn't break anything. Just the screwing part is the hard part.
Отличное пособие по разборке дрона. Глядя на замысловатое устройство дрона, в голову приходит мысль,что эту игрушку создали гениальные Люди! Спасибо Богу,что есть Гении и мы пользуемся их шедеврами!
Awesome video...
HI THERE AWESOME VIDEO👏 SO LIKE I thought this drone has no fan? RIGHT
Yes this drone just uses the vents in the frame to cool the electronics.
Really helpful tear down of the Mavic Mini, as long as your confident with soldering and unplugging small SMT components, I'm sure it will be an easy DIY fix if something goes wrong or needs upgrading.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. 😎👍
Great video, they really pack a ton of things into a small package ! I know if it needs repair, it will not be done by me LOL Can't wait until mine arrives.
Please don't be generic about "guys be sure you are extremely careful the plastic is brittle" but do tell where the clips are and in which direction to pry.
Thanks for posting this. I had my first crash today and it broke the arm on the gimbal (at the top next to swivel motor). $168 for a new one at amazon so I thought I'd try crazy glue. Your video helped gaining access for the fix!
Use a nylon spudger instead of a screwdriver for prying connectors to avoid damage...
Little piece of broken plastic I see on your table, god dam you broke on of the fastener clips 😬
I have been struggling with a stripped screw in the back of the casing. It is hard to reach so most normal methods don’t work. I was wondering if anyone has any advice
oww it feels like an autopsy or something that poor quad on its back you're cutting into its belly :(
Antenna connectors? "Be very careful, I have had these break on other drones." I wouldn't be surprised as you are using a giant phillips screwdriver to remove them.
Can you Please check if the mavic mini fcc and CE have exactly the same hardware?
Different antennas, in controller, and drone.
Jorge Reis I did read the only difference is changed on your location ? Need that confirmed
Looks like you broke a little tab at the beginning? 😅
I belive at 6:21 that's a hall effect sensor to detect the present of one of the accessory that clip to the drone. Once the prop protector is attach to the DJI, it limits flying height and range. It's detected with a sensor.
I think it's the compass.
Great video!
A lot of tech in a tiny place. Seems well designed, well built, well field fixable (with your excellent ongoing support for more features and fixes for existing owners, that really shows support, and that is really important).
Hello, great video ! I added a bright 5mm white led in one front eye of the MM, and connected it to the power distribution board, where is says 3.6 and GND
- Is that 3.6V, or a bit less ? White led usually accept 3.4v max. In my case it is working now, but the led is VERY bright
- How much power could I take from the power distribution ? I intend to add a bright white led to the 2nd eye, a strobe on the top, away from the GPS, for a better safety toward other flying planes, and may be a buzzer as seagulls are attacking my MM and I need to scare them away.
Thank you
HEy
yesterday I tried to attach a small powerbank (56g) to my Mavic Mini. It cant take of with a cable connected. When I first take of and then connect the cable it doesnt charge.
Do you know a solution
Yeah.... Take the 18650 batteries out of the power bank and wire them into the battery.
I would think it disconnects the power when it is charging. It likely can't do both at once, charge and supply power.
Just wondering if you can add and solder optical sensor to the front.
Great! can you see which cmos have?
I replaced the GPS module in my mini se after a crash the hardest part was trying not to break that dam cover on top lol
but I got her back up and flying , great video!
This video makes me feel uncomfortable.
Please leave the frog alone!
Well he should leave that dad gum frog alone. What the frog do ta him by golly?
Cool
Thank you so much! It was because of this video I was able to repair my mini 2 and change its whole body. 🙏🏻
send me video link
Good sharing bro 🤝👍
i am thinking to strip a mavic mini and put it on an fpv drone frame and upgrade the motors to make it a cinematic, long range, and a fast fpv drone (thanks to the new motors)
remake the body with carbon fiber and move the internals to it !!!
Who's that sexy guy 😍 doing the tear down he looks Jacked
I just want to take it apart to customize it or hydro dip it. Thanks
Delvin HIll brilliant
What is a hydro dip
@@Samfromauckland lmgtfy.com/?q=hydro+dip
Please.. Teardown batery sir
Kaboom !!!
there is a video of a guy doing that
Hey momo we will definitely attempt that soon. Thanks for the idea :)
Thanks, this is extremely useful. (I crashed my Mini 2 and have to replace the bottom cover) Wish it was in 4K so you can make things out a bit more clearly.
Would it be possible to take the Mavic air 4K gimble and retro fit it into the Mavic mini?
its not the camera that's limiting you from 4K video, it' the software. they both share the same camera and same sensor size. dji has limited the software's ability to capture 4k video - probably to differentiate a higher value drone from a lower value one
The accelerometer on the main board - does it sense accel in all three directions or just vertical?
klusmanp vertical and lateral
Nice video! Any idea what sensor DJI is using in the camera?
This is horrific. Think of the 45 cents an hour Chinese women who had to screw this crap all together originally.
Sad yes and the dump ppl by
Hi! I would like to build a battery discharge for the mavic mini, to avoid damaging the batteries when I don't use it for a long time. Could I know how the 6-pin battery is connected? I have to find the + 8.4v, + 4.20v and ground ... Thanks for the time and for the nice video!
The connector pinout is
Data - + + - data

Đã biết nội thất mavic mini thế nào rồi😘💓💓💓💓💓
I watched this earlier, but had to repair my Mini after a crash recently. Three of the four vibrations absorbers came loose. I removed the top cover to reinstall one of them that came loose at the top. I was able to do it, thanks to your video. It flies normally.
never mind all the criticisms you are surely reading, you're doing a fine job son. me and your mom are just glad you quit operating on the neighborhood cats and dogs and lizards and frogs.
i'm glad you did this cause now my curiosity is satisfied and i'll leave mine alone. seriously though, nice video.
This is highly intimidating for this pour little drone.
You just flip it upside down 0:14 for everybody to see .
You will have a flyaway soon, It ain't gonna take that abuse and even on-camera...
Anyway.. batterypacks...how DIY are those 18650s and what brand & values of high current INR/IMR cells are DJI using- ??
DDS, suond like a dental God :) WOw this is amazing whats in it.. Super job dude!!
Just subscribed; thank you for sharing!
Thank you sir
I want that drone
Watching this video gave me PTSD. Would anybody trust their drones to this gorilla???
Genius...
🤔 what if I take the Mini’s innards and put them in a Mavic Pro? I’d get a drone that can fly anywhere (No FAA regulations), with the wind stability of a Mavic Pro. Just a thought 💭
Great video. It will help lot's of people :)
very nice video and thanks for showing the internals...
which screams MADE IN CHINA...is this correct.. or are the actually made in the U.S.
is this thing waterproof or anything? Can i fly it when its misty?
Congratulations. Excellent info!!
Cool
A piece of cake, I know everything now. Just a minute, I don't have DJI Mavic Mini? What now, eeeee .... I'm folding FPV qwad.
Will anybody help me?
Shut up
Was wondering where the battery charger is? The wall plug is just a 5vdc power supply so is the charger built into the drone or is it in the battery board?
Neil Smith the battery charger is on the main board and charges through the ribbon cable up to the esc board.
can you show how to dissamble the gimbal from the shock absorbing frame?
I can't get that one screw off where the gimbal spins. It's impossible! Please help
Thanks
Do you know what would suddenly cause my Mini to not be able to do an IMU or a compass calibration and not be able to take off?
No crashes ...gimbal intializez properly but I get a gimbal data error...???
มีวิธีต่อสายพ่วงแบตเตอรี่ออกมาจากเมนบอร์ดไหมครับ
Hi, nice video. I was wondering, how do you change the legs/arms as you didn't show that in the video. One of my arms spring is loose and I was wondering if it was an easy fix. Thanks
That will be our next video! Keep an eye out - Jack
TheIClash yes I'm really glad you're going to take one of the arms off and see if we can change a motor awesome! :-)
ua-cam.com/video/iMv8MYs8p2A/v-deo.html
tear down the battery.. please.. and psst your not the first there was one guy from russia.. that did it over a week ago
Bruce Dickinson but he didn't go as for to unsolder the 4 and 1 esc which I really appreciated.
I think you did an excellent job.
Very helpful step-by-step. Thank you! I would like to remove arms and motors from my mini 2 se and send the rest up to 100k feet aboard a high altitude balloon. Will doing so interfere with the camera, recording or transmission capabilities?
well done, thank you, greate footage quality and voiceoverwe gonna repeat the teardown in Krakow on Saturday 🚁👍 🇵🇱🇮🇴
REMOVE BATTERY FIRST
Whats the blue base you are using
Why would a manufacturer use a brittle plastic for a drone
I have a Parrot Anafi - No desoldering needed NOT IMPRESSED
Take a photo of the wires before de soldering
Can u laser scan each shell of the magic mini plz.
Fuck I wish this was more modular..... like the Nintendo switch
Nice vid. Do you think it's possible to replace the Samsung 18650 Li-ion 2400mAh batteries by 3000 ones and get more flight time ? Thx.
Be funny replace internals with regular fpv and have an Acro mini lmao.
Some how lock gimbal and set it to auto record
Dear friend i am not to rich to buy this whole drone at once.so i thought if i could buy the spare parts from online and assemble myself.can you please make a vedio of how to build at home .
Thanks much in advance .
Any idea on fixing the ESC connection error? "Repairs required. Contact DJI support for assistance. (Code 30085)". Crashed into fresh water for about 2 min. washed and dried in rice 2 days. Now turns on and connects to app but wont let me take off showing that error on the app flying screen. Light on drone stays on red. Any ideas what it could be? Thanks
hi there. can you dismantle the circular thing on the propeller area (which rotates the blades)? one of my rear propeller stuck. i think it's because of some sand or dust.
You're very lucky tearing a mavic mini
you did an awesome job sharing the drone. the wind blew a small branch toward my drone while it was in mid aid and knocked out one of the drone motor triple propeller kits off, and my drone was twirling straight for the ground and damged my drone arm connection and main body
Should of mentioned about taking note of motor wires order . So dont have some motors spinning backwards.
I was flying into a tree and the only thing broken, when it was falling down in the snow is one of this small vibration absorber (rubber band, down left side) that connects the gimbal with the device housing. So my question is: Can you send me some spare parts? Of course I will pay for your work and delivery. But here in Europe is hard to find, exists only service center charging € 65/h + tax ...
Is it a Tattu ESC or a DJI? Is the FC DJI or what? F4 equivalent or F7? So many questions...are the motors T-Motor? I'd have like to see those boards more closely. Still, it was nice to see. Thanks
Is there a pc diagnostics program for this drone? Thanks
I bought a used Mini 2 and on my first flight, I noticed the camera is badly out of focus (except within 1 - 2 Ft). It has some gouges/scratches on it, and the lens glass is missing so im assuming it took some kind of hard landing.
During this disassembly, did you notice anything on or related to the camera that I could mess with that might resolve this issue?
I tried a firmware refresh, and the firmware is up to date, but nothing. I even paired my controller and phone to another Mini 2 which worked flawlessly.
Would I just need to remove the top shell(first 90 seconds on the video) to replace battery door ?
Cheers
Dji mavic mini se or Dji mavic mini same motherboard?
looks like any easy to work or build FPV drone.. You shoulda upgraded to a 45amp esc. and get 3 min fly time at 90 mph
I wanna do this just to take the plastic off and the repsray the plastic a different colour.
Where are the barometer and image sensors located? I would like to tear down my whole drone and use some high quality MG Chemicals 422C conformal coating to protect my electronics. Any assistance would help a ton. Also there are no videos on youtube about this so might make for some awesome content.

Please let me know what the name of the board with compartments you are working on. It is a very good idea. Where can you purchase them ? Thanks in advance
which screwdriver do you use. I cant get the top cover screws off with a JIS #000
Excellent, thanks
