Really? The Phantom has two latches that do a perfect job of holding the battery in.In order to make sure the battery doesn't back out and cause a crash I have attached several pieces of Velcro to both the battery and body of the quad to which I attach the matching Velcro to help keep the battery installed.
Actually, I would want to not crash.+1000

After clicking Fred's circular links 15 times. I've determined to .bin the root and to snap the GD battery into place. That is all.

Sounds more of an issue with anxiety management.
Good point. I will cut out a slot around the tab. Others have stated that they want the battery to stay in the unit in order to continue to send location data to the map as well as to flash the lights to make it easier to locate. It's my understanding that the lights will continue to flash even when it's under waterFrom your picture the Velcro could be putting a little pressure on the release button. Maybe cut a hole where the button is? In my own case I would rather have it pop out in a crash, less chance of breaking the shell or causing other damage. It stays in fine for normal flight.
@Mal_PV2_Ireland I thought you said yesterday you don't have one, so how would you know?As said before make sure your battery is fully seated, if it comes out due to a crash that's the least of your worries, don't fly so close to objects so you won't crash.
Me too. That's what I expected. Had to read just to find out what liquid it was??I thought this thread was going to be about submerging a P3 battery in some form of liquid.
