How to change the shell case replacement of flysky noble
For Flysky Noble series products, including NB4/NB4+/NB4 Pro/NB4 Pro+, the outer casing may become damaged due to falls or other reasons. Particularly, the part connecting the battery base is susceptible to cracking due to impacts. If your transmitter's casing is damaged, you can purchase a new one through the following link: Flysky Noble NB4 Casing.
Now, I will share how to replace the casing of the Noble series transmitters, which may help you resolve the issue. The following steps take the NB4+ as an example, but the disassembly methods for other models are similar.
Step 1: Remove the Hand Grip
Start with the top clasp, which can be pried open with your fingernail or a screwdriver.
Next, remove the side of the hand grip, as shown in the picture below, using a screwdriver to pry it open.
Finally, for the most difficult middle clasp, use a screwdriver to press against the clasp and then force the screwdriver in the opposite direction to open the clasp, as indicated by the arrow in the picture.
After removing the hand grip, you will need to remove the screws that fasten the metal parts.
These can also be pried open using a screwdriver.
A total of 7 screws need to be removed, using the screwdriver size referenced in the picture.
For the NB4 Pro+ case, since there are many screws, I used a custom magnetic base to absorb the screws to prevent them from being lost. This magnetic base is also very useful when removing the R clip from the vehicle, and the R clip is absorbed on the base to prevent it from being lost.
Step 6: Pry Open the Noble's Casing
The casing can be pried open along these directions using a screwdriver.
Step 7: Remove the Main Board FPC Ribbon Cable
The ribbon cable can be pried open along the base of the cable using tweezers. After prying open the ribbon cable, you can remove the main board screen frame.
