Close call with a new battery

[jaysrmc]

I took off this morning using a battery I just received from amazon. About a week old.
When I gook off, the battery popped out at about 3 feet.
No damage to the MP but the battery puffed up and ejected it from the MP. Anyone else seen this?

Is this an original DJI battery or 3rd Party version? I have seen several forum entries saying their non DJI batteries work well but don't clip in properly.

Sounds like a fake battery.

DJI batteries DO start to swell and CAN pop off but i cant see it immediately after takeoff on the first flight. Mine swelled after 40-50 charges.

It's real. From official dji Amazon store. I'm not worried too much because they will replace it. It wasn't the first flight with that battery. Maybe used it 3 times before it happened. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this.
