Hello guys,
I have been in the hobby for about a year now. Recently I bought a second hand phantom 2 vision+ without a camera that I converted to a normal phantom 2 with H3-3D and Gopro. I bought it from the secondhand section of a webshop that sells drones. The lipo had 24 chargers on it when I got and had a life percentage of 91%. The smart lipo was a little puffy on the sides (shows the previous owner had no clue how to take care o his lipo's, with 24 chargers no lipo should be puffy but OK).
Today I flew the phantom and the battery went flat pretty quickly, I started off with a 99% battery and after 11 minutes it was at 1 bar and my "Low Battery level" is set to "Go Home". Before it even hit 25 m of the return to home altitude it started descending rapidly because it jumped into the "Critical Battery Level" state. It made like a smash landing and tipped over. What's up with my drone? Bad battery at 35 chargers and 89% life health?
Kind regards
Caden
