Hey all!
I've been using Airdata for a bit to keep track of maintenance of my Mavic Air and its three batteries.
One of the things they recommend at the "Basic" battery service is to perform the following:
Slower Deep Cycle Method:
Mode Mode changed to AutoTakeoff
14% Battery at maximum distance
Data Loss Downlink data connection lost for 1.2 seconds
* Warning Propeller Fell Off. Motor Idling (Propeller Loose or Missing)
* Warning Not Enough Force/ESC Error. Propeller Fell Off
* Warning Propeller Fell Off (repeated 4 times)
Assuming I want to follow these recommendations, what's the best way to accomplish step 3?
I've been using Airdata for a bit to keep track of maintenance of my Mavic Air and its three batteries.
One of the things they recommend at the "Basic" battery service is to perform the following:
Slower Deep Cycle Method:
- Fly until battery level reaches 25%-30%
- Allow battery to cool completely to room temperature
- Put battery back in and turn on aircraft (optionally starting motors with no propellers) and allow battery to discharge until it gets down to 8%, or until the battery can no longer be turned on. Launch the DJI GO app to check battery levels.
Important: NEVER fully discharge the battery to 0% - it can cause permanent damage
Tip: With engines stopped, the battery seems to drain about 1% every 5 minutes or so - Allow the battery to cool completely again to room temperature
- Recharge battery normally
