Mavic Air Battery Questions

[RichardThiery]

Hello everyone,

Another question from a newbie. I usually fly every day, but with all the rain I haven’t had a chance so it’s been 10 days since my last flight. I charged up the battery to 100 precent after my last use as I always do and today 10 days later I noticed that the battery felt slightly warm and lost some charge. I’ve read somewhere that they discharge over time.

So my questions are these:

Did I just break or damage my Air by charging it up fully and not using it for 10 days?

What is the best way to store these batteries?

Will it hurt to continue doing it this way?

Should I separate the battery from the unit when storing?

Any help would be appreciated.

No not necessarily BUT its not at all good for the battery to do that.

What is the best way to store these batteries?

Get yourself a hanatora charger with a storage option (charges to 60 %) and keep the batteries in Storage until the day of use.

Will it hurt to continue doing it this way?

Yes doing this will cost you in Battery life and may end up costing you a few Batteries also.

Should I separate the battery from the unit when storing?

YES!
