Replacing the top case on your DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ drone requires removing all four propellors and threading the magnetometer cable through a small hole in the lower case. You may also need to transfer the GPS board to the replacement top case.
Note: the drone used in this guide probably looks different from yours! It's just a custom paint job, otherwise it's completely stock.

This guild will also largely work for the Phantom 3 (Adv./Pro) with the difference being that the phillips-head screws are T7s in the P3, and the 2mm Allen/Hex bolts are T8s.

Does anyone know what the size and thread pitch for the “2.0 mm hex bolts” are? I lost the screws and need a replacement.
