Hover-1 Charger Outer Shell Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

If the outer shell of your Hover-1 Charger (H1-COL) is damaged, it may have to be replaced. This guide details instructions to completely remove the outer shell.

In this guide, the right or left cover refers to the portion of the outer shell that contains the LED headlights. The right or left foot pad refers to the portion of the outer shell that the user places their foot on.

Make sure to wear an anti-static wrist strap to protect the electronics against buildup of static electricity. Some screw housings are fragile; they may fall apart when the screw is removed.
