hello everybody welcome to a new episode of how to DIY RC and today's episode we
have the Eachine E58 wifi FPV drone maintenance guide are we going to fully
disassembled it's part of this drone show me how to repair your drone if you
make break something and if you do break something only e58 and not probably you
want to buy one of the spare parts here link down below and eachine has been so
kind to make and sell each part separately so no matter what you break on this
drone in a crash every part can be replaced so from that let's dig in and
the first compartment you cannot have it's probably breaking a propeller of
course you can do that all with the little subscribe that came with the
drone but it's a lot better to have this little package even if you want worn out a
little hex screw this package got it all to fix your drone it's helped me in
so many times and I'll put a link for this as well down below
because it's cheap and it's been super helpful to me and it's just a
simple screw and let's see uh-huh so there's just two screws that are holding
the folding prop so you prop breaks just undo one screw place a new one in there
but it's smart to check if they are tight enough
after a few flights because it doesn't want to lose one of the screws during
flight and I'll move the prop then you're pretty easy
E58 won't look so pretty anymore let me go ahead and disassemble all 3
propellers and we arrived back hi guys welcome back
we have disassembled all four propellers I forgot something really really really
important that I want to say to you guys now before you do any maintenance on
your drone on the car or whatever always kill the power and to be really
safe or move the lipo battery because I know if you can imagine if something would be
happening like the prop start spinning well I am trying to disassemble the
props that's a easy way to hurt your self wouldn't be a
really good day so hopefully is there a good lesson to you guys always remove
the power and the battery to be really safe and the next step is of course
disassembling the arms and so that we also have to disassemble the underbelly
a little bit
and if you're smart you have a magnet they can place all the screws on order
so that you know the expose came out first and I'll just go down and you know
how to rebuild it by going backwards alright so hopefully we can just pull
out the arm if you're very lucky
I think this is six screws should have done the job I'm not on 100% sure
let's check seems to work
easy to click it off be very gentle you don't know what wires are running
towards the top so it's pretty easy there's nothing there just a simple
cable perfect so there's just six little screws that hold the upper cap and
everything els is in the bottom I was thinking the other way
around but looks pretty nice and give you a close-up answer see which motor is
which I got all the color schemetics not to make a picture let's just move from one
motor and do a full disassembly of one arm there's a good chance that you will
break after a few hard crashes so okay wiggle it off just moving forward and
left up side forward and back and it just gets off and there are spaces on
top of the arms so don't forget that I find it always very interesting to see
how the motors are how they look and brushed coreless motors so they have to
be replaced after a few months depending on how much you're flying of course at
least easily can fly a hundred flights if they'd been taken care of if you do some
pre maintenance maybe add some oil some grease make it run smooth and run them
in properly just don't Bash them straight out of the box they can last a very long
time sorry we are doing it all out of camera view it's just four little screws
just clicking and clicking on the arm with a few screws
there's nothing special oh it works here we have the motor and transmission gear
this is how they fix it it's a pretty long motor never seen this motor before
think it's a six mil this is 7 mil yeah and it's 20 mil Long's 2 centimetres
long it's pretty nice I can be upgraded
and that motors again spins the transmission gear
let's Prince Ali and then the propeller and if they've put some grease come on
focus no it's really shows there is grease on
the inside so they did a good job but I think is looking pure white it's just so
simple silicone grease and I would have liked to add a little bit more and
better quality so just assembly you know just very small teeth on there so if you
run really hard the teeth can break off and rip but they are being sold
separate that you can buy just one gear if you break the motor you need to
replace the motor then you have to buy a whole arm I didn't see the motors being
sold separately yet but may come up in the future and most of all these parts
are already available or will be available in the next week so let's see
how you can remove the motor it's easy to put on yep just pull it out and here
you got a 720 Brushed coreless motor
put some grease back on it
and mount it back in it's place quit simple and effective
yes assembly back together and then continue with the rest of the drone I'm
gonna come back guys we have just removed all four arms so we have a
better view on the flight board and going over the good things and the bad
things that we have found or not so far looking pretty nice all the connectors
and all those soldiering they've done a pretty good job on it they also have
added soft mounts to the FC so that's a really nice upgrade didn't
expect that the downside is maybe you noticed I'm missing a screw on the side
and another one right there in that corner so they only use two screws so I
would like to use all four of them to do a proper job but that's why we have done
this in-depth inspection so we can make sure everything is secure and doing some
pre maintenance and this is the antenna
receiver antenna from your flight controller and if you have that sticking
outside your body somehow you extend the range you get some better reception then
they also have the crystal over here I'm sure right over here next to the
processor they have the crystal it's some epoxy so let's glue it on nice and
tight that's pretty important that it doesn't vibrate and then I soldered it on
lights and then this is the power on and off button and then of course you
have two lights at the front and it's just it's simple to move those connector
and then you just pull out the lights so another disassembly then the power
button is directly soldered to the flight controller so we cannot remove that they
have to go together and then you have the leads that's gone to the Wi-Fi
module fpv camera after disassembling first disconnected then it's a shame but
only two screws from the flight control
another four screws of the power button
now it should be pretty easy just to take off the circuit board and have a
look at the camera FC is a little bit tight
of course the soft mounting rubbers pretty nice and you know let's look at
the underside and the soldered pretty nice not bad for the money it's a pretty good
job didn't see any weird things and then this is the connector for the battery
nothing wrong there and then we have a look on the inside we have the Wi-Fi
module and then the camera sitting underneath here and then a black strip
sending all the information and these are pretty breakable you need to be very
careful with them
you have to get there from the inside so let's see what screws we have to remove
to get we want to go and see a few screws that are holding the battery holder and then
two screws for the camera
and here is the 2.4 Ghz antenna running to the wifi module
let's just clicked in there's no screws holding it for I can see and then
I put some sticky tape to protect it
let's move the camera and then try to remove the module
and it's just a simple clicking click off you can replace the module I don't
want to pull too much on that wire shouldn't be too much flex on it because
there's only chance that you will break it I'm gonna remove the sticky pad so we
can have a look at it without actually removing it and you can see you can
replace it Atena for a better one just simple I don't know how the connect is called but is
connected with simple plug and play this is a simple job and ever
he has transmitter here the crystal and the wires soldering is it some pretty good
sorry for the lighting but as far as my eyes can see it's a pretty nice job in
opinion a very good module and sits in pretty stiff it's not going to be falling out
anytime soon but I didn't glue it in so perhaps we can click it out should be
able to remove but I'm just gonna let it in for here guys
I don't want to destroy anything because it's all brand new and it's still still
working I'm just gonna do a quick assembly again and then we're gonna test
if everything still works and I did a good job and that's so we arrived back
hello guys welcome back we have assemble the drone for 50% it's
not just time to check if the motors are turning in the correct way
and if the props are sitting on the right place
and as you could see these two motors are running clockwise just as the props
scooping clockwise and this two motors are running counterclockwise so as long as
you have this two motors running towards each other and this tumors are doing the
same then you have guaranteed a good drone that would take off without any
problems and this is where I going to end the video and do the assembly alone
I really hope this video was helpful to you guys and you give the thumbs ups if
it wasn't then give the thumbs down and I hope you subscribe for in the next
episode we are going to do a range test and a range test from the wifi FPV I'm
going to try to boost that so I would say good bye until next time
