S1 switch replacement

[Crawdaddy23]

I have a P3S and and within a week of purchasing it I found the S1 switch on my remote broken..of course my twin boys denied it but in any case was wondering how to go about finding a switch without sending entire drone and remote for analyzing by DJI..any help is appreciated thanks

If you're handy and you want to replace the switch yourself, you can buy a new switch here on Amazon or here on eBay.

i have several controllers for P3S for $50 shipped in case you want to avoid the whole switch change

I've looked on both but don't know a replacement that will work..I've looked for S1 switch replacement in search for DJI remote..I have experience soldering with r/c cars

when replacing switches you will have to replace both at the same time. they are both tied into same connector. no soldering required.

Is there a part # to search?..I've seen that someone has bought a 3 position switch at radio shack but don't know if that will work

It'll work. Many people have used that exact switch to fix their P3S remote controllers.

FYI, if you need help opening the remote controller, you can find instructions here.
