I have been at this for about a year and for the most part do okay with the Phantom 2. Now I have a problem that requires Pro advice. I have experienced two battery quick draining experiences. I check all five of my batteries in the Assistant, and all show good voltages in all three cell areas. I took one of the batteries that would not take a complete charge and powered up the craft tonight. It showed 89% on the display. I took off and everything flew as normal, I was watching the percentage of battery to assure it did not deplete quickly, which is what I have experienced recently. At 86%, I noticed all lights on the craft turned to flashing red. I brought the craft down and landed. I still had 39% battery left. The red lights came on about two minutes into the flight, even though I had 80+% battery. Once on the ground I let the craft run. at 16% which came pretty quick, I noticed the only way I could keep the motors going was to add throttle. If I just let it idle, the motors would stop. I watched the video I shot during that short flight and everything was normal. The engines sounded fine and the craft flew normally. So, I am stumped. Something has to be draining these batteries. Any ideas?
