Hi all,
After upgraded my Solo to GC, i check the parameters ans see that my battery capacity dropped from 5199 (may 2017) to 4528 mAh (february 2018). The mean usage is about 1 charge per week so approximately 30 cycles. i didn't notice any change in flight time, about 13mn. I tried only about 3 times in sport, acro modes most of time are gentle fly for filming.
So i wonder what can change the capacity since changing smart battery manufacturer values needs to unseal the BMS with manufacturer access password.
As P2P said, MP or Tower can't change this value since it's readed from BMS.
I also check my 2nd smart battery and it has only 5153 mAh (feb 2018). i didn't save its value before (august 2017).
any idea?
@pious_greek : as you have opened the battery, could you give the chip reference on the pcb? If it starts with bq20zXX, i can try to unseal to change the manufacturer values.
i will fly tomorrow to check flight time...
