Loss of Battery % data during recent flight. Need Help.

[Rick W]

This past weekend I was flying my Spark out over the Everglades. I was out a distance of about 1,500 feet when the battery indicator showed a red 64% and I received a battery error message. I immediately flew back toward my take-off point in as direct a course as possible fearing that I had a battery cell failure. The drone was fully responsive and as I got closer all of the data/video remained fine, except for the battery which never decreased below 64%. I would be grateful to a senior member if they could look at the attached log to see if the battery developed a problem or what exactly caused the RC to be unable to display my battery or flight time remaining. I would have expected that as I got closer to my landing zone the battery % data would have returned to normal.

Is it just me or is the a corrupted
Ah! you provided the txt log as a CSV

 

[SpinItUp]

It stuck on 64%, simply looks like what you said
[Ed] going by the CSV (digital help/analysis will be along soon I guess)

 

[Rick W]

I have attached the file as a zipped CSV if that helps.

 

[SpinItUp]

Why not the .txt file?

 

[Rick W]

Wasn’t sure which would be easier. Was surprised I couldn’t upload a CSV data file to this forum. It is not one of the allowable attachment formats.

You can use this here /LogViewer/Upload then just post the link to it after it loads in the viewer for the flight you did...

This is what we're interested in ...somebody will be along to help with all the data and tools to tell what went on no doubt.
All I see is a flat graph when it hits 64%

 

[SpinItUp]

Cell 3 went bad I think...I'm no expert or have any tools that analyse all this.
Hopefully, the guys who do will be able to give a definitive resolution to it.
