[QUOTE="Andre Levite, post: 85130, member: 10850"] The micro USB charging port on the Spark remote attaches to the main printed circuit board. It's nearly a complete teardown to get to it with several delicate ribbon cables and shielding film in your way. Then you need to either solder a new port on the main board (risky) or replace the board its self (expensive). Then you have to put it back together without breaking it. I suspect there are no YouTube videos demonstrating this repair because the success rate is so low unless you're a professional. You could get a quote from ThunderDrones by searching this site or the Mavic Forum. Otherwise a new remote is the remaining option. Major design flaw for DJI to use a frail port with no orientation cues and then make repair nearly impossible. [/QUOTE]
