    Flew my drone into the woods

    That's not entirely correct... before the forced critical low voltage auto landing gets initiated, a low battery RTH will kick in. The low battery RTH will give you a 10sec counter before proceeding where you can chose to either RTH or cancel. If you have lost the connection to the drone you...

    Disabling C1 and C2 Buttons on the Mavic 1 Pro Controller

    If you want a more stylish solution (if leaving the C1/C2 as "Not defined" doesn't work)... you can for instance chose below "neutral" settings for the C1 & C2 button

    Batteries won't charge!

    Hi & welcome to the forum. Probably not... & even if you could get them going with various methods to wake the BMS chip up, they can't be trusted for flight duty. LiPo batteries degrade with age & use, causing a diminishing capacity, increased internal resistance, cell deviations & electrolyte...

    Haven't used my DJI mini for a year now wont connect to RC

    The communication path from the drone to the mobile device go ... Drone <--> RC <--> Mobile device. The message on your last pic. says (RC not connected to mobile device) This likely means that the connection works Drone <--> RC... but fails RC <--> Mobile device Have you tried another usb...

    01.01.0600 firmware for M3P

    This will very likely not work... DJI jacked up the anti rollback value one notch between these 2 versions, this is probably why a downgrade possibility doesn't exist in DJI Assistant 2.

    Mini 3 Motor/Engine Trouble

    And how do you determine that... does your drone flip over when you try to take off? Have you made sure that you have attached all prop blades correctly & on the correct motor?

    Cheap used batteries

    Resetting the charge cycles is definitely one of the steps when refurbishing batteries (putting in new LiPo cells)... unfortunately I'm not an expert in the procedure, but it can possibly be done with a cp2112 and the DJI battery killer app, all readily available for anyone. It's like resetting...

    Cheap used batteries

    A sophisticated fraudulent seller will have access to the needed equipment to reset the charge cycles... this alone isn't a reliable sign of a good battery I'm afraid. The most reliable before the buy is instead the seller credibility & return policies... after the buy it's performance testing...

    How fast have you gotten your Mavics to include all series?

    In general, DJI photo drones doesn't draw amps to the same degree as FPV Acro quads... but full stick commands will cause voltage drops even on photo drone batteries & it's worse if both the elevator & the throttle is maxed out at the same time. If the battery is healthy & haven't degraded...

    Fly app and terrain following

    If activating "Use online elevations" in the settings & marking the checkbox "Above ground" on each waypoint... the set height for each waypoint will be above ground right below the waypoint & not relative the takeoff point. This works ok, but what happens between the waypoints is up to you, no...

    Payload and hot engines

    The risk for motor overheating aside... you should also worry about burning out the ESC's.

    Smart controller RM 500

    Hi there & welcome to the forum 👋 DJI only have one RC that they call "Smart Controller"... that's the one with RM500 as a model number. And this one is the only "sceened" controller that's compatible with the DJI Mavic Air 2.

    My First 3rd Party Battery - TOO HOT?

    In general... Higher temperatures = higher internal cell resistance = probably more pronounced voltage drops during load = increased risk of quicker electrolyte decomposition with gassing as a consequence = swelling. This points to inferior LiPo cells... that the total pack doesn't show any...
