    MPP battery charging on the go, cheap and lightweight

    I got 3 charges and the battery still had juice in it, that's because I land before the low battery warning (super annoying), usually at ~40-50%.

    MPP battery charging on the go, cheap and lightweight

    A couple of months back I've dug this forum and other for answers regarding changing my MPP batteries on the go. Most of the answers were: Impossible, too much weight or too expensive. I'll recap the options here again: 1. Buy more batteries 2. Drone MAX360 or similar. 3. Combining more power...

    Bought my first DJI drone (MPP 1), came a bit cracked

    After ~10 hours of work, here is the result, I've managed to damage the front lights during the repair, and also I couldn't put back 2 washers from front arms, they fell from the inside, but the shaft couldn't get in with them inside, so I just removed them, works ok. Files very well, with the...

    Charging on the go.

    Thank you for your explanation. I've learnt something new. I'm fairly new to battery types, but eager to learn, so since you know something about batteries can you help me with something. If LiFePo4 are not dropping in voltage at discharge and are pretty good at discharge speed, What do you...

    Charging on the go.

    Super nice, I'm not sure why you want so much to charge multiple batteries at the same time? Another idea would be to buy a cheap inverter (200W, under 20$) and use the AC charger to charge 2 batteries at the same time, also that one has the usb for the controller. I however have a question...

    POWER BANK TO CHARGE MAVIC BATTERIES

    Update: 4S6P battery I was looking for had a maximum discharge of 0.5c which means half of its capacity, a cell capacity was 2000mAh x6 making the max output 6Ah which is a pickle below what I need. As per the video above I've attached he's using a RC battery which has a greater discharge...

    Bought one refurbished

    Hi, around same time I've bought my MPP with ~700$, used acceptable, it has a small crack on it and I have to replace a component, I've wanted to get it fixed and not returned because the batteries had 1 cycle only each and as a bonus they've offered a partial refund. Now I'd say 939$ is a...

    POWER BANK TO CHARGE MAVIC BATTERIES

    I've did some digging in this matter as I'm trying to find a way to charge my batteries, so here are the options I've found, starting with the most convenient but pricey to cheap/more DIY alternatives but hard to carry or without much value: 1. Just buy more batteries, Mavic batteries are very...

    Taking the MP or MPP on a journey without electricity

    I like hiking and sometimes my hikes are lasting for more than a few days, I just bought my MPP and I was looking for ways to take it with me, the biggest challenge is to charge the batteries away from home or car. So, the only possibility I've found so far is to take a car jump starter (12V...

    Bought my first DJI drone (MPP 1), came a bit cracked

    I should do that, didn't let it hover, assumed it saves the spot while still on the ground.

    Bought my first DJI drone (MPP 1), came a bit cracked

    Couldn't wait for parts, flew it again, flies fine. One small thing tho, it didn't return to same spot it took off, had a drift of about 2 meters I think, didn't let it land that's why I'm not sure about how much it drifted. Is it expected for MP or MPP to do so? I don't have enough...

    Bought my first DJI drone (MPP 1), came a bit cracked

    I contacted them and requesed a replacement or repair, and they proposed return + full refund or 100$ partial refund for repairs, I took the partial refund. I have also looked at videos for replacing the body for the repair (I kind of like this kind stuff). Due to frequent accidents I was...

    Bought my first DJI drone (MPP 1), came a bit cracked

    I've got a pretty good deal, and considering that the batteries, all accessories and the controller are brand new while the parts middle body and the shaft (even the whole arm) aren't that expensive (15$, 8$ shaft or 30$ for arm). The only bad part is that I'll have to solder the cables, but...
