Hello,
I am experiencing issues with my ST16 Battery. I usually charge my controller after every flight. When I attempted to fly yesterday, the blue power indicator LED on the ST16 controller lit up, but the controller did not turn on. I measured the voltage on the ST16 Li-ion battery pack (YP-3A with the EC2 connector). The voltage read 2.74v, way lower than the expected 3.6V on the label.
All I could do was attach it to the controller again and leave it on the USB cable, attached to the battery charger that came with the Drone. Leaving it overnight, I tried to turn on the controller, this time no blue LED or anything else. I took out the battery and measured the Voltage, which this time read 0v. I checked for continuity and there is still continuity over the battery pack.
I have tested the voltage at the controller side, and it is reading 0.96v at the ST16 connector.
I obviously hope the fault is with the battery and not the controller. What do you think?
Thanks
Steven
