Need to update batteries, too?

[Teesquar]

Been on a hiatus from my mavic and catching up on updates. Do I need to swap out all my batts and rerun the update for each?

Thanks in advance.

Go 4 should alert you if a battery needs updating. Having said that, I would cycle them all through to check their status before they are needed.

If the firmware on the current battery needs to be updated, you'll see a message like this displayed in DJI GO.

I have been wondering about proper battery storage since i got my Pro...i have searched the forums and on line to get the right answer...When storing the battery,should it be 1/2 charged ? FULL ? etc etc...is there a definitive answer ? ..i have seen various responses from many over the past year and still don't know the correct or proper way to store...i have been charging it 1/2 way and leave it in my back pack with all the rest of The Mavic's parts...Any definitive answer ? THANKS ALL

dear new member i will try to give you some answers to your enquiery lipo batts dont like to be stored fully charged or in a very low charge state at those two extreames they can become damaged and loose there ability to hold or be charged the ideal storage charge is 3.8 volts per cell and in the case of DJI inteligent batts that equates to between 50 to 60 percent of charge also the batts need to be charged to full and then discharged to the storage at least once a month this can be done by charging them up the day before you plan to fly and then flying them down to around 50 percent and they are safe to store for another period of time there are instuctions in the DJI manuals about battery managment and if you follow the advise given they should last for a long time hope this helps
