Cannot take off - low battery voltage

[sosmaverick]

Just this morning I went to fly the drone with a fully charged battery. I was unable to fly due to low voltage, battery was sitting at 6.0V..

any one got any ideas?

...?

Some people have resolved this issue by downgrading and upgrading the firmware. See more details in this thread.

Thanks for your input, I'll have a read through that thread. The odd thing is, my other two batteries are working fine.

That makes sense since the issue seems to be caused by firmware on the battery. Unfortunately, there is no way to just downgrade and upgrade the battery firmware.

Ahh right ok, I guess I'll have to try just that.. Although I'm yet to upgrade the firmware since I got the mavic last December. Going to drain the battery and recharge before the firmware changes.

Thanks for the tips.

Discharge and recharge sorted the battery out. Back up to 12v. I assume it has something to do with the car charger, will test it out and reply.
