I was pulling the silicon off of the 2.4 and 5.8 connectors on my controllers and I guess I broke the connector on the 5.8 on the board. At least it doesn't seem to have the small round connector like the 2.4's do.
What can I do?

Trust me, you're dealing with micro components. I use three Magnifiers to see what I'm doing with the SMD stuff. You don't have a very good chance of repairing this. However, if you do, please document how you did it, I'd be extremely curious!!!Why can't it be un-soldiered and replaced ? Heck wire in a larger connector or better yet soldier in the coax directly to the board?

Broke mine directly above your's at the 2.4. See my post, above, on how to repair.Here's a picture, the bottom one.... The connector is still there, but the cylinder part I guess is still in the other connector.
Just did the exact same thing.
Bought another controller from eBay to do the mod I was working on.
Sent the broken one to DJI to replace the PCB to keep as a backup.
Haven't gotten a price back yet.
Wow this is good to know since AI just ordered a kit. What can I do or how can I do the removal without breaking the connector? Is there a trick to it? Or just be careful?
