Removing a child element in subdocument not working - node.js

Question

I'm fairly new to Mongoose and don't think my approach on deleting an item in a subdocument is the right one.
I have the following schema setup:
//DEPENDENCIES
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var contactSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
name:{type:String},
age:{type:Number}
});
var phoneSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
number:{ type: String },
phoneType:{ type: Number }
})
var memberSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
firstname: {
type: String
},
lastname: {
type: String
},
phone:[phoneSchema],
contacts:[contactSchema]
});
//RETURN MODEL
module.exports = mongoose.model('member', memberSchema);
To remove an item from the phone, in my Express API, I first find the parent then reference "remove" for the child ID, like this. But it does not work.
router.route('/owner/:ownerId/phone/:phoneId')
.delete(function(req, res){
Member.findOne({_id: req.body.ownerId}, function(err, member){
member.phone.remove({_id: req.body.phoneId}, function(err){
if(err)
res.send(err)
res.json({message: 'Success! Phone has been removed.'})
});
});
});

Answer 1

Figured out that I was looking for req.body and was actually needing req.params.
Also found right syntax on Mongoose docs:
router.route('/owner/:ownerId/phone/:phoneId')
.delete(function(req, res){
Member.findOne({_id: req.params.ownerId}, function(err, member){
member.phone.id(req.params.phoneId).remove();
member.save(function (err) {
if (err) return handleError(err);
console.log('the sub-doc was removed');
});
});
});
