If you’ve been unfortunate enough to crash your DJI Mini drone and break an arm then we feel your pain. The good news is that you can fix it for less than $50. The bad news is you’ll need to set aside 2-3 hours of your time. Fixing your DJI Mini drone isn’t easy. It is tedious work and shouldn’t be done unless you know what you are doing.
You’ll need a few different things in before you get started. You’ll need a small screwdriver and a set of prying tools. You’ll need a good light, an open area and we recommend a magnetic part holder to make sure you don’t lose any of the tiny screws in the process. This kit has everything you need. Except for the new drone parts.
The DJI Mini SE and DJI Mini 2 are nearly identical when it comes to hardware. We were able to replace the arm and motor of our Mini SE with a Mini 2 replacement part. Mini SE parts are hard to come by, but Mini 2 parts are readily available. We initially purchased a Mavic Mini arm but found out quickly it was not the same.
