    Battery Woes?

    Agreed with all above, in the "Salvage" pile of broken parts they go to maybe one day be recycled into something useful, I just can't throw anything away. DC

    3 of my 5 are in the same condition. Mine bird will get to about 100 ft about a minute 37 avg. and then come down HARD. I've had to hand catch it to keep it from crashing. My batteries are in the same condition as yours, over 2 years old, right at 20 - 25 flights show 99 - 100 % when starting...

    Vision 2+ wifi units fix and why they are dying.

    It shouldn't be necessary to boost since you have the best upgrades done. My advice would be to fly it and see if it meets your needs as is, and if not then boost. If you don't have the V3 wifi transmitter with the holes, or haven't modified the output chips with Artic Silver you will have to at...
