will it damage it?

Hey guys, i have Onix Black Mavic Air
I want to remove the upper cover and repaint it, so the question...

will it damage any special seal or rubber that keeps humidity off the drone when removing the cover?

I watched a video a while back on taking a the air apart, maybe you can find it on the tube or search here, but from what I saw there is no seal, and don't forget the air has vents, in and out for the fan so seals would be useless anyway

It looks like it's just plastic tabs holding the cover in place. This video shows how to do with a credit card

Note that this could void your warranty if it is still within the coverage period. Supposedly DJI can tell if its been opened.

You can see what they would look like on the Decal Girl site. I purchased a set for my Phantom and the images on her site match what they will look like in real life.

I am at work right. my drones are at home. i can upload them later.

[crlmjohnson]

those are the ones that I have on my drones.

I also order extra skins for all of my batteries.

They fit perfect. outstanding design.

and they have outstanding customer service. I am not a person for them, just a happy and satisfy customer.

My MA was black and I replaced the top cover using a credit card as shown in the video with a red cover purchased on Ebay, I found no seals just clips. It was easy

The circuit board is protected by a conformal coating on the board itself, thus there isn't a seal on the actual lid.

Thank you! Would removing the lid, void the warranty like previously mentioned in one of the responses?

Only to the extent it might be demonstrated you butchered something in the process.
