You can bet on: the Mavic Pro batteries, do HAVE the lifespan feature. A discharged battery, displaying one, or one and a blinking second led, do display 5 steady leds if new, for example. A full charged old battery, shows 4 leds on on single press, but do show only 3 Led (or less) if the butto...

I tried searching this forum and outside, but couldn't find the answer. If I hold down the button on the battery pack of my Mavic Pro for 5 seconds, I get an estimate of its remaining life according to the table (see photo) and I would like to know on what parameter this estimate is given. The...

In the flight log, the posted lines are the only ones with meaningful indications. As far as I'm concerned, I think I know how my drone flies and what it does (after 5 years of use), however I discovered (I'm an electronic engineer) that the GO4 app's indication of remaining range only makes an...

What happened to me, looks a bit like some airplane crashes that occurred due to incorrect indication of fuel level compared to the actual amount in the tanks. If the pilots had calculated how much fuel had been loaded and used, they would have noticed that the onboard gauge was indicating the...

The "failed" battery pack doesn't have many flights, but is too old for warranty work. The solution was to buy another one and learn from experience that the mA capacity matters much more than the estimated percentage remaining. This % estimate is valid only if the battery pack has a capacity...

In this case, the problem was that the full charge of the battery pack was actually only two-thirds of its rated value (i.e. 2150mA instead of 3830mA). The 2150mA is equivalent to 56% of nominal capacity, so I took off with a battery with a capacity of just over 50%, even though graphically the...

Hi Ralph, actually, I've read all about lithium polymer batteries, and all my battery packs have always been treated according to standard, almost maniacally: never left 100% charged beyond three days (discharged 50% manually), charged at least once every three months if not in use, stored at...

...finally I was able to access the log, which seems to confirm the sudden drop in autonomy with an inconsistency between the autonomy data shown and the actual ones, which led to the assumption of having a higher autonomy, and suddenly, through some other parameter (or protection), led instead...

Thank You for the answer. I would gladly look at the log, but Win10 20H2-19042.1110 crashes (with blue screen) when I try to install the Ipad Mini2 driver. That said, it's pretty obvious that the flight range estimation system takes voltage as a reference, and that when the 2150mA is almost...

It's my habit to be cautious, but I didn't pay enough attention to all the numbers. Before takeoff I always do a checklist, which until a few days ago I thought was accurate and sufficient. As luck would have it, it's my habit to have the drone approach when the app indicates the battery is...

No reply after eight days.... Let's try to ask the question in a different way: would someone who owns a Mavic Pro 1, be kind enough to check if switching from Landscape to Portrait mode (it's not needed to fly the drone) results in having to correct the roll?

I hadn't used the mavic pro in over a year, and while checking to make sure everything was working properly, I realized that the horizon calibration is not right for portrait format, which is tilted about 10°. Even recalibrating the gimball, and the IMU, the problem persists. With the horizon...

No one else ever noticed this "unique" anomaly? :) I'm the only one, among 88,872 members?

Couldn't find a previous thread about. The battery completes the charge (I suppose), but Led #4 continues to blink indefinitely, as the charge were incomplete. Charge seems anyway completed (no current is drained from charger), the cells voltages are ok (and pretty nicely balanced), flight time...
