I have the first results of the battery mod. Not successful. The battery was detected, but it seems that the extra weight overwhelms the fact that it has more batteries. I was using a 5000mah (381g 155mmx48mmx24mm) battery and when hovering, it cut my flight time in half (13:20 approx.). I get...

34g is not much when you realize the batteries can weigh in the 200g-350g range. I'm also not trying to max out flight time, just trying to add a few minutes. In my case I have two external batteries so I'm going to try the maxxuav mount, if it weighs too much then I might go to one battery.

I ordered one from MaxxUAV.

Yeah i became aware of this when I first plugged it in and had a mini heart attack lol. I'm waiting on the mavic battery mount right now to test it. Should arrive tomorrow. I'll update with results.

I haven't forgets about this, I promise lol. I will get to it this weekend and update this post.

That makes sense. I bought the battery so recently that I don't have a charger for it yet, but I should have it in the next 3 days. As soon as I get it, I will fully charge both batteries and see if that changes, so they're all at 100%.

That's the adapter in the photo. It went from 100% to 90% in about 3-4 minutes, this is with only one 3S 11.1V battery. Is it possible that the MP battery is charging the Li-Po batteries?

Hi everyone, something quite curious began happening when I first tested a battery adapter mod I handmade on my Mavic Pro. I turned the MP on with just the adapter plugged in, everything was fine, powered it down. I plugged in one of the two Li-Po batteries I have and the lights turn on, but...

It's definitely possible, but difficult. I handmade one without power tools and just tested it a few hours ago, which is why I'm now on this forum :p Wierd thing happened when I powered it up with a Li-Po; gotta figure it out before I continue. But yeah, it's possible to make yourself. My next...
