    Battery issue ...

    I think the reason your charger kept shutting off is that it could sense that the RC battery was fully charged. That is the "normal" end of the charge reaction of the charger. Faulty led on the RC is what I think is the issue.

    Battery issue ...

    Could it be that the last LED in the controller is burned out ? I think the iPad screen (showing fully charged controller) is pointing to that.

    weird marks on props

    If the discoloration cannot be removed by cleaning with alcohol, then the discoloration is in the plastic itself. Injection molding machines (which are used to make these props) have a barrel which is filled with melted plastic that is moved forward in that barrel with an auger like (screw) and...

    weird marks on props

    Can the marks be cleaned off with a cloth dampened with alcohol or cleaning solution? If so, it might just be tiny bits of wear from the motor bearings being attracted to the blades by static electricity ..... generated by the flex point of the plastic prop near the hub.

If a pack is left unattended it will gradually auto-discharge to 3.7 volts. If allowed to....because of neglect ....the...

    The Tesla gurus say for the longest battery life keep the charge between 20% and 80%. Those are lithium-ion batteries.....ours are lithium-polymer but the 20%-80% might also apply favorably to us. I've always been cautioned to only fly when battery is charged to 100% .....even topping it off...

    Phantom 3 took a surprise swim. Looking for advice.

    It is also my understanding that it reduces the useful life expectancy of these LiPo batteries to take them down below 3V ......so the replacement issue under warranty probably is also a consideration that could have influenced DJI's decision to just implement a shut down rather than allow...
