- Thread starter Ryencoketoo

Just to let everyone know the flight status showed motor failure right out of the box. Being replaced. Thanks everyone for all your input, there were some great ideas we acted on.

I was flying yesterday and I changed my pre-flight procedures regarding battery placement for the first time.
Until yesterday I inserted the battery with the rear flap up and pushing it down once I was satisfied the battery was properly seated. But doing this doesn't always produce the reassuring 'click'. I know the battery was always seated properly. Indeed, I'm anal about it, but the click was not always evident.
So, with threads like this in mind, I changed my procedure so that now I slide the battery in with the flap down. Now I can hear the click.
I recon it just goes to show that no matter how experienced you think you are, there is always scope for improvement and a willingness to refine your techniques.
