Introduction
If your drone has a broken propellor (diagnosed either by observation or through our troubleshooting page), replace it with this guide. There are no required tools for this replacement.
What you need
Step 1
Battery
- Power off the drone by holding down the power button.
- Remove the battery by disconnecting it from the main battery connector.
- Press the power button again to ensure all electricity is discharged.
- This step is imperative as it is dangerous to handle drone components with a running current!
