    New battery arriving today!

    Absolutely let them cool, these large brick packs are well insulated inside the crash box, the crash box is the plastic housing around the cells, Anyway it takes at least 6 hours for the brick to cool down in the center, I charge either the night before or early morning before I go out, the...

    New battery arriving today!

    I guess for you to understand what I meant by "I could describe it as flying the Hindenburg with a camera on it, and there was no performance improvement flying wise, more fun with the camera on." I had just been flying a smaller, quicker, more agile drone. When I go out to fly for the day...

    New battery arriving today!

    New battery arriving today!

    All righty then, fully charged 7500 Gifi's flew my Q500 for 18 min each, and one for 25min's not carrying the camera, All charged on a dual port aftermarket charger.

    Drone went Boom with Gifi battery?

    Another thing is that the GiFi's female spade slots are very tight, they drop right into the stock battery charging port but when I used my aftermarket charging harness I had to add a bit of silicon Diegel to the spades, those are the big pins, to get everything to work smoothly. Look for burs...

    Drone went Boom with Gifi battery?

    My H had a battery problem that the seller failed to mention, once the battery was in, it was impossible to remove without using a pry stick, it came with two new batteries, that should have been a clue but price blindness has it's faults. So I had to take the H apart to get the battery out...

    Factory reset?

    were the flashing LED's meaning it was still waiting for the GPS to fully load, I notice on the screen that GPS state's "Ready" Before it was Acquiring.

    Factory reset?

    so now a few min's later, I didn't touch anything and all the LED's are on solid front white and rear red.

    Factory reset?

    matter of fact all the LED's are flashing, front are flashing white and the rear are flashing red The little led in the left air vent is on solid orange.

    Factory reset?

    Great, got the camera view back on the controller, the rear bottom led changes color when I switch flight modes, it's flashing, is that normal?

    Factory reset?

    Morning, I'm in the same conundrum but I haven't tried any firmware updates, I just hit the "Factory Resets" to clear any possible previous owner changes or locations, Before doing this the remote and bird would bind, compass calibration went ok and the camera worked fine. So what should be my...
