    Internal self-discharge

    All ready to fly and red banner reading "Internal self-discharge" scrolls across. Everything else normal...even took off and hovered but went nowhere til I get to the bottom of this. Only thing I have done differently is use little arrow to download pictures directly to phone. Ideas?

    I will try a short flight from a different location and see if i get same warning. What is worst case scenario of this in-flight? Can compass be calibrated if it is NOT showing "compass calibration" warning? Thanks for the help!
