Anafi propellers are quieter and more energy efficient.

Best my MMs home pack. Mavic Mini Case - Minimal - Like a Glove by rosscadguy

I received a 7333 stabilizer, now the board looks decent. I flew on VTС6 in a strong wind (at 20m altitude it began to be blown away by the wind), at 27 minutes the remote control began to beep, landed at 33 minutes, 10 minutes flew in sports mode. In normal weather, there will be at least 35...

If you believe this photo flir_20200908T184737.jpg , the temperature of the stabilizer is about 60C, perhaps the reason is that it is covered with a layer of glue that impedes cooling. .

I was a little surprised by the strong heating of the 3.3V stabilizer, I do not think that the controller's current consumption is so high. It may be good that I installed a more powerful stabilizer.

My VTC6 arrived today. I took a thermal photo after the flight for 24 minutes, the connector is cold. The 18650 and the 3.3V stabilizer are heating up.

My VTC6 is still on the way. While they arrive, I hope I will finalize the reliable fixation of the connector. I will try to see the contacts after the flight with the FlirOne thermal imager.

Yes, Alain, you are right, I have an SMD connector. Today the weather is good, I managed to check it in a real flight. The connector was fixed very securely with rubber bands + a latch on the cover. The 18650 I have are of average quality, not new, the flight before the forced landing was 26...

It's true, I'm worried about the power connector, it's loose, I use a cover latch DJI Mavic Mini Battery Retention Clip by redpiyaya and add some rubber to the board to secure the board and connector. I am thinking how to bring out an additional power connector with minimal damage.

I did not wait for the HT7333 stabilizer, I assembled the circuit on AMS1117, not very elegant, but everything is solid and most importantly works. The propellers start, no weather has not tried to fly.

Unfortunately, this is not the first such loss. I've already read about several similar cases. Above the water, the sensors begin to behave not quite correctly, so you should not go below 5-10m above the water surface. High banks and trees could aggravate the problem in your case, they could...

This works with any Lion battery, it is also possible to use the 3S with a simple circuit modification. Write to the author in private messages to receive the board + chip. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4544954
