Hello
I was going to replace the ESC on my mini 3 but accidentally damaged the motor cables on the trailing arms when I was going to remove all the glue. Do you know if it is possible to solder new cables or extend the existing cables and which AWG cable it is. Thank you for all the help I can get from you.
 
It feels incredibly stupid to have to buy new rear arms because the cables are damaged, it must be possible to replace the cables

the arms are around 30 bucks and its a much better and easier fix'
Replace the whole thing.
 
Concur. For a quicker fix: replace the two arms and keep the originals as emergency backups. But if you like that kind of DIY challenge: I would imagine it would be pretty straightforward as long as you identified the correct gauge and replaced like for like.

Can't find the dimensions of the cable to the motor have looked everywhere. DJI is lousy about information on its spare parts
 
I have 0.75mm cable at home, do you think it would work? I change cables on all 4 motors.
