Full Diagnostic & Precision Repair Service

Crashed out? We’ll get you back in the air. South Bay Whoop Repair provides professional, high-precision repair services for the San Diego FPV community. From Tiny Whoops to 5" freestyle builds, we specialize in micro-electronics and precision soldering to fix the problems that keep you grounded.

How the Process Works

1. Book Your Service: Purchase this $48 Diagnostic/Bench Fee to secure your spot on the bench.

2. Schedule a Drop-off: Once your order is placed, we will contact you via text or email to coordinate a meet-up or drop-off in the Chula Vista / South Bay area.

3. The Inspection: We perform a comprehensive multi-point diagnostic, checking your AIO/Stacks, motor health, VTX signal, and solder integrity.

4. Approve Your Quote: We provide a transparent estimate for parts and labor ($55- $70/hr). We never start work until you approve the price.

5. Meet up & Fly: Once the repair and hover-tests are complete, we’ll coordinate a meet-up to get your quad back in your hands.

The South Bay Guarantee

With over 14 years of experience in high-precision optics and electronics, we don't just "fix" drones—we optimize them. Expect clean wire management, solid solder joints, and "optician-level" attention to detail.

IMPORTANT: This service is for Local San Diego County customers only. We do not currently accept shipped repairs. The $60 Bench Fee is required to begin work and will be applied toward your final labor total.

NOTE:   Final pricing depends on the repair needed after assessment.
