Hello.

Mavic mini

fir-tree

It turned out a small problem, water accumulated in the chamber and it does not go away.
2 days in a warm place where +35, the water dried out, spots remained. Image is spoiled. After 10 minutes at +22, water is again on the glass inside.
4 days in rice. Water on the glass inside.


Tell me what to do, how to clean the glass from the inside.

Thank you.

If MM in normal condition(not was underwater or heavy rain) just put MM without battery to warmer place, +40 ... +50 grad Celsius for one-two day.   It must be enough.

when it dries, the glass inside is dirty anyway.

That is impossible to fix, without removing the glass and wiping it to remove the water stains.

The problem is that the condensation will happen again, when you take it outside in the winter.

The MM is only rated for 32F

This is not a problem, I don’t have winter in the city this year) in St. Petersburg only today 26.6 F. it was above 32.
I just wonder how to remove the glass?)

Rice appears not to be a good answer. https://www.ifixit.com/Wiki/Don% ... ce._Here%27s_Why...

This tear down shows how to remove the camera but not how to dismantle it, apparently DJI don't repair the camera they just replace the whole unit

Maybe it's covered as a warranty repair

How it entered it can get out again. Warm the unit and keep in under constant ventilation.a
The best idea that I can think of set it on a table with a hairdryer blowing towards it at the mildest temperature setting. Verify the air stream is just lukewarm from that distance.

The temperature will make the water droplets evaporate, the constant air stream will facilitate air circulation inside the chamber, effectively replacing the humid air with less saturated one.

Return it, there are many ways to clear this , but if it got in once it will get in again and you will continually be trying to get it out.

It is weird that a lot of condensation + dirt would get inside, a bit of condensation is normal in all lenses, no matter which manufacturer.
If water has left marks, contact DJI Support and let us know!

Maybe in a bag with a Pelican Reusable Silica Gel Hydrosorbent Unit...? But yes, not good if it recurring...maybe the lens has been bumped/damaged in some way and seal broken...? I keep one of these in my carrying case to keep moisture at minimum level...the unit is reusable so just pop it in the oven as directed and throw it back in the case to keep doing its job.
