Ok so finally an update. Just heard back from DJI and they're sending out a brand new drone. They declined to say why it's as straightforward as that and given the exact same thing happened to a guy who lives only a few miles from me I do suspect there has been a faulty batch of batteries that...

All very good points and taken onboard. Thank you very much once again for all your help. Contacted DJI this morning and it's being sent back so hopefully I get a good outcome. I'll let you know how things work out.

I had used it that same day, maybe just over 2 hours before. When I landed on the previous flight the battery was showing 30-31% and had decreased to 24% upon starting up. I didn't see this as being an issue as I was only planning a very short flight anyway. Thanks for all your help it's very...

I get that and the spinning might well have been me trying to regain control to be fair but as for the on screen warnings they simply weren't there and the battery power on screen took a sudden plunge. I reckon DJI aren't going to play ball on this one.

I can see from the graph the voltage seems to have decreased in the normal way albeit very quickly but not on screen. I flew this flight looking at the screen with only the occasional glimpse up to see the drone. As I said, on screen everything was normal until the sudden decrease in battery...

That's the thing though, these warnings weren't appearing on screen. The first I knew something was really wrong was when it went into a forced landing and the jump from 24% to 9 or 7% was instant, on screen at least. RTH never appeared at all. My intention was to get into position to take a...

Not sure if this is the right thing or not.

Right just home from work and my memory is a bit clearer than it was last night. When I charged the battery up it took almost 3 hours to fully charge. I went out with the drone around an hour later and noticed the battery had already drained to 92% and it hadn't been switched on. The flights I...

Thanks folks. Going out on a 12 hour dayshift so will try to upload them when I get home tonight.

I got a warning of low battery at 22% and that battery power suddenly dropped to I'm sure it said 9% then the drone literally fell out of the sky. No option to cancel the forced landing, nothing. The drone fell in a spin. All I could do was watch it spinning round until it hit a tree then fell...

Just got my mini 4 pro yesterday and flying it half an hour ago and got a low battery warning. I had 22% battery power and it went into a forced landing which I couldn't cancel. I was at a height of 82m and around 180m away when it decided to descend and an incredible rate and nothing I done...

They all seem to be the same so I'm guessing there's a reason for that. No idea what it is though.

Thank you.

I'm not really a whisky lover but just happened to be out & about that day and thought it might make a decent video.
