As mentioned in the title I would like to know the types of screws for the Mini 3 Pro and RC Controller
- Propeller  (male thread)
- RC Controller Sticks (female thread)

Is there any official list available?

I don't think you will find any official list available, Probably have to remove one and figure out for yourself...

And don't forget that the propeller screws have a step in them.

I don't want to use any other screws.
The originals are treated with microencapsulated adhesive (threadlocker)

I am only concerned about the thread types ;)

So far, what I know





First look says M1.2, but it is M1.4 because trapezoidal thread
Thread pitch:0.25mm
Thread diameter: M1.4 (1.2mm, trapezoidal)
Thread angle: 60°.
Screw length: 3mm
Head: 4.15mm x 0.65mm

Has anyone seen torque values for tightening these screws (while fastening the propeller blade)?

No, I haven´t found anything official about the DJI Mini 3 screws.

Non-binding and at your own risk, I would assume this tightening torque
0,15 - 0,20 Nm / 15 - 20 Ncm (only for new screws)

But, the max. possible tightening torques here, e.g. 15cNm to M1.8, do not fit logically

However, tightening torques for such small screws are almost impossible to maintain precisely.
It is much more important that the screw is completely screwed in and ALWAYS use new screws (never already used) to ensure the full function of the screw lock (blue pre-coating), even tightening torque is less.

At my place we say "Nach fest kommt ab"

That was strange. Received new drone few weeks ago with fly more package and two spare sets of propellers. None of the screws are pre-coated with blue screw locking. There was also no screw lock on the propeller screws that were factory mounted on the m3p drone

Possibly the damage to the screws when loosened by customers outweigh the drone crashes due to missing propellers because screws come loose?

But, I received my spare set in 2022-12 and here in sealed bag, you can see the pre-coating ;)

Hello, is it possible to find the same Torx or Hex head screws? I hate the PH head because I keep messing up the screws. By the way, a small paper manual with the required torque of 1.2 kgf.cm is attached to the original DJI replacement propellers. I tried to achieve this with a precision torque screwdriver and it didn't work - the screw was broken and had to be replaced.

I can hardly imagine that.
My smallest torque screwdriver starts at 40cNM (40N/cm) which should be about 4.07kgf/cm.
That's less than I use for tightening.

Can you please take a picture of that small manual please?

EDIT: Thankyou for updating with correct torque 0,118Nm / 1.2kgf.cm

Myself I turn the screws in until they bottom out and do not tighten any further. I think any tightening on these tiny screws risks snapping them off. With the thread locker on them I do not feel there is any risk of them backing out. The top of the screw head is flush with the plastic hub of the propeller when it is screwed in all the way making it quick and easy to do a visual check during preflight inspection to make sure none of the  screws are backing out.

You are right....
...not necessary to tighten the screws until water comes ;)

Because my eyes are failing and I am impatient, fine paint strokes help to quickly check the still secure fit of the screws.

That's a great idea. I am going to start doing that right now.

Lost my Mavic 2 Zoom.  Bought a rebuilt dji mini 3 pro.  Screws for propellers were incorrect.  Ordered replacements from Amazon.  Then I am in trial with a lovely court reporter.
