    Battery Dead after long storage

    Bummer. I have two still alive. That's enough for now.

    Battery Dead after long storage

    Unfortunately not that. Per the DJI instructions that would show a red light. Leave alone for 5 minutes. Then it goes off. Then you can recharge. Thanks for the short lived 'hope blip' in any case! I'll probably take it apart and see if I can use a Li-ion charger to bring each cell up...

    Battery Dead after long storage

    My own neglect is likely the cause. 1 out of 3 of my Phantom 4 pro batteries will not charge. When I pressed the battery power button briefly, all four LEDs blinked very briefly and went out. While 2 of the batteries charged normally, the other one has not charged at all. All lights are off...

    New props for Mavic - Wish for Phantom ...

    Not muddying at all. The P4 props brought the simplest prop hub to the line. Other than the possibility of folding blades (and even then) or significantly more powerful motors, there's no reason to change the hub design.

    New props for Mavic - Wish for Phantom ...

    And yet the MPP props are reverse compatible to the MP. The mount (what counts for reverse compatibility) didn't change and that can easily be done for the P5 unless it has larger or smaller props or if a possible folding prop design makes for a mount interface change as well (which isn't a...

    New props for Mavic - Wish for Phantom ...

    On all their drones I guess. I recall when they got into the racing world there was a bit on their site about improved prop testing facilities they had invested in. Once you have those tools and knowledge ... Hopefully the P5 props will also fit back onto the P4P.
