For mini 4 pro owners and others…
Keep forgetting to take the battery out BEFORE folding prop arms? I do Grrrrrr.
Cut two bits of pencil about 22mm long.
Use them to push in the battery release buttons!

Knowing the issues the battery release tabs and undue pressure, I’d be reluctant to to release such batteries with other than my fingers.

Ahh yes, true. Forgot about that way.
Tbh I have done it that way before, but I’m my head I felt I was forcing the arms a bit.
Also, in my defence, it’s mainly when I get home, go to charge the batteries and the prop holder is on. Can’t do it that way then 
.
Thanks for highlighting that vid anyway!

I must be less patient in my old age. 
The idea was to avoid the unnecessary wear and tear on the arms and the prop holder.
More importantly, the faff.

Youre going to end up with graphite all over your release tabs 
Small price to pay!
