As I bought mine from a store (just been on the phone to them), they said I would have to return to the store for a replacement or a refund tomorrow! I am in 2 minds now what to do
What are the indications that any damage has occurred? I too have been storing my batteries in the charging hub but they appear to look and function normally.
Does anyone know what the tolerance is like for these things?
I think @PingSpike makes a great point ‘if it aint broke…’
I guess that you should consider how many times you have left the LIPO’s charged and unused for a number of days getting towards a week at a time and if that is more than say…15 times (your milage may vary) then do the swap.
How ever if it’s been minimal like a couple of days before the next flight I would go the other way.
BUT>>>>I’m completely new to this technology I just fail to believe its that fragile where baking the guidance here and there should spell disaster.
I assume they are holding charge and you are getting the right sort of flight time out of them?
Realistically, how much damage do we think a couple of months of storage in the hub could do? Presumably if and when a battery “fails”, it means it won’t charge rather than the drone immediately dropping out of the sky (so a safety issue) …
To be honest the battery thing has just pushed me over the edge!!
I have been thinking about returning it since I got it as one rear leg has been bugging me that it got too much play, even though it flys great, I just keep thinking it is only going to get worse!!
All posted at the sorting office today so should be on or around Tuesday. @JeffV8 I posted yours at the local post box which doesn’t get collected until 10am tomorrow.
